I believe it is because you put the condition ino paginate but you
haven't rewrited the count method. There is an example of this in the
cook book , I think the link is this one :
http://book.cakephp.org/view/1237/Custom-Query-Pagination .
There is one important notice for you here. I had an issue where I
needed two diffrent paginations for the same model element, and the
problem is, you can rewrite the count function only for one (because
you rewrite it to meet your condition). The problem is , how to make
count function for multiple conditions such as, show me only published
posts, or show all posts if I am logged in as admin in order to
publish some posts. Those are 2 different paginations, but I can have
only one count function.
The solution to this is to make a global variable (i tried to pass an
argument to the rewrited count function, but it didn't work for some
reason, it may be my mistake) and set it each time before you call
your pagination. You put an if clause in the count function, and then
if condition one is true, then you return one count value based on
that condition (e.g number of all published posts), and if the
condition two is true then you return some other value for the count
(e.g. I am a administrator, I should see all of the posts, so for the
count of pagination my view needs to get the total number of all
posts).
Hope it helps
