Re: I need logic to make private user groups

Thank you Stephen, 

I understand that I have to create an expanded, habtm relations between users and groups, but I have a brain freeze. 

So when the user is a member of a group, he see that group. When trying to access a group, the application first checks whether the user is a member of the group, if he is not a member, show him the error message, otherwise allow access. 

Thank you once again, pretty tired.

Nikola,

I would imagine something like the following if you wanted something very simple.

groups
id |  name | ...

users
id | ...

groups_users
id | group_id | user_id | admin | created | modified

The groups_users table would be a HasMany Through rather than HasAndBelongsToMany relationship so you can store admin as a tinyint(1), this way the original user who creates the group will have admin set to 1 and the other users invited would default to 0. You can create logic to specify admin rights in a very simple way, though there are more complicated (and possibly effective) ways to do this depending on what you need.

Okay friends, I need the following: 

enables registered members to dynamically generate user groups, where only members of the group can access content within that group. This is identical to do facebook group. 

So I need some logic, how to do it. thanks
