2This design would only allow each MenuItem to be tied to a single UserGroup, meaning either limited menus or data duplication. In reality you want a link table, ideally. Also, your choice of DB table naming as plurals makes me sad ;)Ed James– Ed James2013-07-29 13:52:32 +00:00Commented Jul 29, 2013 at 13:52

@EdWoodcock oh very good point. I should have gone with a permission level (int) and then compared that to the user's group level. I'll change that. Note, plural names habit caused by my use of CakePHP. Which is strange, cause the framework uses singular aliases for tables in queries.Reactgular– Reactgular2013-07-29 13:56:27 +00:00Commented Jul 29, 2013 at 13:56

@MatthewFoscarini No worries, I'm not really bothered as long as a codebase is consistent ;)Ed James– Ed James2013-07-29 14:01:40 +00:00Commented Jul 29, 2013 at 14:01

1Awesome answer. I will keep this in mind next time I do something likt this. For now I think user61852 solution will suit best since it doesn't require as many changes to the existing code. Thanks!span– span2013-07-29 14:06:23 +00:00Commented Jul 29, 2013 at 14:06

`like _so_` - quote by placing > at start of line

How to Tag
A tag is a keyword or label that categorizes your question with other, similar questions. Choose one or more (up to 5) tags that will help answerers to find and interpret your question.
- complete the sentence: my question is about...
- use tags that describe things or concepts that are essential, not incidental to your question
- favor using existing popular tags
- read the descriptions that appear below the tag
If your question is primarily about a topic for which you can't find a tag:
- combine multiple words into single-words with hyphens (e.g. design-patterns), up to a maximum of 35 characters
- creating new tags is a privilege; if you can't yet create a tag you need, then post this question without it, then ask the community to create it for you
