Best Way To Implement Admin Dashboard

Yii 1.1 General Discussion

Hi guys,

I’m wondering what the best way to implement an Admin dashboard is? I have a very simple web app (this is a college exercise) that has a Product model and I want to allow admins full CRUD and registered users read only. I also have a User model and I want admin users to have full CRUD for user management.

What is the best way to go about this? Should I create a static page with links to the relevant controller/actions or should I put this in a module?
