    A client wants to turn a free directory into a paid one but only wants one person to manage the subscriptions.  I think I have two choices as to how I implement it but would appreciate any feedback before I proceed.

    Option 1 - add more custom fields to the directory weblog and write some custom code to prevent these fields being viewed by people not in a particular user group.

    Option 2 - create a new weblog for the subscription details, permissions now easy, but would need more complex changes to listing and when editing have lots of fields I don’t need - title, entry date etc.

    Anyone done a similar thing or have any recommendations?
