Question for the crowd: I have a a split database that's in use. Several of my customers have asked me for a limited version of the front-end that has a limited menu and only a couple of the forms available to users. All the data is read-only in for these users. I'm trying to decide if I should dynamically edit the menu's/forms to limit the view based on the user's access level or if I should go ahead and clone the FE and take out all the "extra" stuff.
Any thoughts on pro's & con's and how you'd do it? Doing it dynamically means only changing the forms once but I'd need logic in each one to determine if the form is supposed to be displayed and if it is read-only. If I clone then if a user changes their privileges, they'd need to swap the versions of the product (which would be good since there is a bigger fee for the full-access version).
Thanks
