Hi, as I only have to secure one controller, I put this into my usersController:
class UsersController extends AppController { var $name = 'User'; var $components = array('Auth'); public function beforeFilter() { parent::beforeFilter(); $this->Auth->fields = array('username' => 'usr_username', 'password' => 'usr_password'); $this->Auth->allowedActions = array('display', 'index', 'add'); $this->Auth->autoRedirect = false; $this->Auth->logoutRedirect = array('controller' => 'bookmark', 'action' => 'search'); $this->Auth->loginRedirect = array('controller' => 'pages', 'action' => 'display', 'home'); } But when I try to login, I get this sql error: SELECT `User`.`usr_id`, `User`.`usr_username`, `User`.`usr_password`, `User`.`created` FROM `project`.`users` AS `User` WHERE `User`.`username` = 'me' AND `User`.`password` = '998992c0dfcffb9ad442a85be2d636ba37228c3d' LIMIT 1 It looks to me as $this->Auth->fields is just ignored? I went to the book and read about but I couldn't find a hint how else to write it.
