I have a User model, which has an admin_add function. The user's password is being hashed just fine. I also have an admin_pw function, with which an admin can change a user's password, and a change_pw function, which lets the user change their own password. The Auth component is not hashing passwords for the latter two functions. I cannot see a difference in the views/functions and can't figure out what is wrong. Does anyone have any ideas?
in app_controller: function beforeFilter(){ Security::setHash("md5"); $this->Auth->model = 'User'; $this->Auth->fields = array('username' => 'username', 'password' => 'password'); $this->Auth->sessionKey = 'User'; $this->Auth->loginAction = array('controller' => 'users', 'action' => 'login'); $this->Auth->loginRedirect = array('controller' => 'profiles', 'action'=>'report_index'); $this->Auth->logoutRedirect = null; $this->Auth->loginError = 'Invalid username / password combination. Please try again'; $this->Auth->authorize = 'controller'; } all three views use: $form->password('User.password', array('size' => '30','label'=>false)) I do a straight $this->User->save($this->data) in all three functions, but for the admin_pw and change_pw i need to do this first: $this->data['User']['password'] = $this->Auth->password($this- >data['User']['password']); If i don't, the plain text password is saved to the db. any ideas? thanks. -d --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Cake PHP" group.
