Hey all. I am building a new feature on my site that will be an opt-in for some users. I am curious to hear of any good patterns people have used for this sort of thing. My approach thus far has been:
- announcement on user dashboard of new feature
- link to a form for to be registered as a prospective user (some additional data would need to be collected from the user)
- admin gets an email and visits a page to confirm or request further information
- user then has access to the feature
Ultimately all the additional attributes for this feature will live in a hstore column on Users table - which is already there.
Any tips much appreciated!
