Scaffold and table names

hayl...@gmail.com (Kerr) — Wed, 11 Nov 2009 13:12:48 UT

Hi folks, I'm using CakePHP for a new project, and I am having a great

a simple $scaffold based model, and I'm having trouble reconciling a
table to a model. My application handles client billing for a
business, and I have a model named Invoice, with all the convention

Dynamic navigation bars

jeremybu...@me.com (jburns) — Wed, 11 Nov 2009 10:59:54 UT

I asked a question here a while ago about the best way to extract data
from unrelated models. Primarily, I was thinking about creating
navigation bars and storing the menus hierarchically in the database.
I changed tack a bit, and threw away the database idea. However, I did
crack it and I thought it might be useful for other folks. Pleas see

admin routing shows CSS when behind an SSL

chadsmith...@gmail.com (Chad Smith) — Wed, 11 Nov 2009 02:49:06 UT

Hey Everyone,

This is a really odd problem and I will do my very best to explain
what is happening here. As I have no idea what is happening.

What I found is that we setup a SSL and this is my
domain.com/.htaccess file
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
RewriteEngine on

RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^identityalert.org [NC]

Blog Tutorial

cakep...@gmail.com (cakephp9 cakephp9) — Wed, 11 Nov 2009 00:58:53 UT

I have some basic questions about the blog tutorial

1 What does edit($id = null) mean, is $id being reset tot null?
2 What does $this->Post->id = $id; then do, make it null too?
3 Why do we check again if the data is empty, the data validation
prevents it from being empty?

Thanks in advance!

Form Action URL from Router

josephjtrobe...@gmail.com (Joseph Roberts) — Tue, 11 Nov 2009 21:49:37 UT

I have an application that uses Auth and ACL to check permissions in
the app_controller. I am also checking permissions on every AJAX call
by using jQuery's AjaxSetup to capture the XmlHttpRequest URL. This
process works perfectly for any manual AJAX call, but for Ajaxified
forms the action URL contains both the CAKE and APP_DIR which messes

a 5/10 when it comes to MySQL & databases in general. I was recently
hired by a company wanting to bring their catalog design and web
development in-house. After digging through the existing site's raw
PHP code, I've decided to rebuild it from scratch with Cake. I'm blown
