Hi all you experienced bakers. I'm new to the world of CakePHP, so forgive me if this is a very basic question. I followed a few tutorials, and have a question about getting information filled automagically into the different fields of the table.
First off, I extended the blog tutorial with a simple implementation of Auth, based heavily on what I could find here: http://mrphp.com.au/code/code-category/cakephp/cakephp-1-2/simple-auth-users-habtm-groups-cakephp Then, I've extended on the blog tutorial, and have been adding new fields to the "posts" table from the example. One of the new fields, I created is 'username'. Here's the deal: I'd really like to have the 'username' field being filled automagically based on what user is logged in, just like it does to both the 'modified' and 'created' fields by default in the blog-tutorial. >From the blog-tutorial, bottom: [10.1.2 Creating the Blog Database] "Check out "CakePHP Conventions" for more information, but suffice it to say that naming our table 'posts' automatically hooks it to our Post model, and having fields called 'modified' and 'created' will be automagically managed by Cake." Thanks in advance! Best regards, Emil K --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "CakePHP" group.
