Hi All,

Has anyone created or has tips for the creation of user groups in a app. e.g. a Facebook group ?

I am trying to create groups in a social application where users on the site can join a group etc its just much like a facebook group.

Any help will be appreciated.

Ta.

Since I would assume a user could be a part of any number of groups, I would
suggest that you just make a seperate table.

Maybe with simple columns like this:

//GROUP TABLE
key group_id member_id join_date

Then you can just compare it to your member table when someone tries to
access a group page. And then use a simple query and allow access to the
group page if member_id in your members and group table is the same, and the
group_id they are trying to access matches the group_id in the table.

Or something like that...
