Look at the API: http://api.cakephp.org/class/auth-component#method-AuthComponentuser Parameters: $key string field to retrive. Leave null to get entire User record optional NULL if ($key == null) { $model =& $this->getModel(); return array($model->alias => $this->Session->read($this- >sessionKey)); } else { And, of course, $this->sessionKey cannot be some arbitrary string that the component doesn't know about. It can't read your mind so it defaults to what it knows. Namely, 'Auth.User'. Check out the new CakePHP Questions site http://cakeqs.org and help others with their CakePHP related questions.
