Another thing, the actsAs array is only queried when the behavior
collection is created. Changing it won't (AFAIK) affect the already-
created behavior. Not 100% sure of the official method of configuring
at runtime.
How about overriding the save method directly?
class Photo extends AppModel {
function save($data = null, $validate = true, $fieldList = array())
{
$this->Behaviors->Upload->settings[$this->alias]['src']['dir'] =
'/' . $this->getEventSlug($this->data['Photo']['event_id']);
return parent::save($data, $validate, $fieldList);
}
}
(Note that depending on the behavior you use, you might need to use
$this->name instead of $this->alias - check how the config is keyed in
the behavior setup method)
