Hi CakePHP bakers! Just read through the CakePHP manual and finished the blog-tutorial, and everything works great. Next step would be to add a counter to the posts. How many times a post have been read...
Where should I put this code? The counter should only be updated everytime a user clicks the link, not everytime the post is shown (refresh etc). So far I've made a populateCount function in the post model: function populateCount($id) { $this->query("UPDATE posts SET post_views +'1' WHERE id='$id'"); } ..and in the posts_controller.php file: function display($id, $url) { ..... $this->Post->populateCount($id); ..... } This works but the post_views is updated everytime the post is refreshed or gets a direct request... Silly newbie question with a simple solution? In advance, thanks! --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Cake PHP" group.
