Website development question

I am building this member website where you go on and you can register like a social network but not really.. And i was wondering do i need to make a staff panel for it or is there a different way to deal with the users?

Depends on the purpose of the site and how you/your client want to manage it. Would you need to create different levels of permissions for staff to manage certain areas of the website?

You'll probably want an Admin panel for you and your staff that is only visible when the user has a specific permission (staff, admin, manage, etc).

Even if you don't want to build an Admin panel you'll probably still want a way to check if the user has Admin permissions.
