I know this is such a noob question, Niphlod. I'm starting to get a better feel for it now. I created the groups and started to associate users.
Two things: How could I show the user what group they're assigned too in their profile? Would I just edit the user.html view or could I put something in the controller? Can I allow two different groups to edit a database? For example, I want the editor to be able to edit the database so: in the controller: auth.has_membership('editor') How could I add the users to that as well?
