Question

I would like to make a model agency based on codeigniter, but im a but stuck with the database, exactly the registration part.

I would like to allow users to sign up as, model, photohgrapher, studo.

I was searchin around the net but couldnt really find anything helpful.

Could someone please give me a hint where i can find a schema for a model agency database? or someghing similar?

I would like to have 3 acount tpye in the registration, models, photographers, studios

And im stuck at this part, so actually the models will have more options like the photographer or the studos, and i dont really want to store all options in one table.

Thank you

Or if someone could give me and opinion would be happy about it.

Answer 1

You have to work with a role based system:

account
id – description – role
0 – Model – 2
1 – Photographer – 0
2 – Studio – 1

role
id – add_photos – edit_data – view_model_details
0 – 1 – 0 – 0
1 – 0 – 1 – 1
2 – 1 – 1 – 1

Users
Id – name – account
0 – Norma Jean – 0
1 – Max – 2
2 – James Hickey – 1

The role table lets you define different actions for the groups.
