Exclusive Category; only certain members may see
I didn't see anything like this on the forum, so I plan to develop it.
With my site design, I want to only allow certain people to see certain categories; I plan to have an 'exclusive'
category of sites that only paid members may see. To do this, I was going to use user levels and a batch of
if/then statements. (If the user level is 2, they can see the category, if its 1 they won't know its there.)
My question is, is there already some sort of 'user_level' system that was designed? Which field in the database
do you suggest I use? Status? Group ID? should I make another field? Do ya'll forsee any problems if I switch a 1 to a 2 in these fields?
