inside your view you need to havesomething like this: <?php
echo $this->Form->create('User'); echo $this->Form->input('User.short_status'); echo $this->Form->end(); ?> and then inside your controller action: $user['User']['short_status'] = $this->data['User']['short_status']; also before save, you need to specify what user exactly are you saving, something like this: $this->User->id = $this->Auth->user('id'); 2012/10/9 Chris <chris...@yahoo.com> > hi Ivan,... > > it didn't work,...
