Just trying to improve how I'm doing things.

I'm checking a user's usergroup id and displaying additional options
if they are in a particular usergroup. (followed the 2 part ACL
tutorial in the 2.0 book)

Here's an example I have in one of my views, to display different
content if you have the permissions:

<?php
$user = $this->Session->read('Auth.User');

        if(isset($user)){
                if($user['group_id'] == 1){
                        //Display Admin Options
                }elseif($user['group_id'] == 2){
                        //Display Manager Options
                }elseif($user['group_id'] == 3){
                        //Display User options
                }
        }
?>

It works - but it doesn't seem very efficient. I would have to put
that chunk of code into EVERY view that I create. Just looking for a
little guidance on how I can use this code more efficiently and
accomplish the same thing easier and more to standards.

Thanks
