Hi cricket, Thank You for your reply,
speaking of "unique usernames"... in fact yes, they are all unique.
i'm not quite understud what Amit meant to be,... yes they are all
unique, and each user has its own Videos, Groups, Blogs, Profile,
Business Profile, etc... and in order to favorite let say I (user1)
want to favorite video that you (user2) have post it in from youtube
or google and have favorite section so I can access with no time. the
clear picture of this,... if its not to much trouble could you please
access http://www.zippopeople.com and please signup to see your
favorite section in My Videos, My Groups, ... this is just a testing
URL and all records will be deleted after all... here is my ../views/
videos/favorites.ctp file, and in order to link to that ORIGINAL VIDEO
that have been posted from your favorites you need to have a some
unique string (i name it $parent['User']['username']) other from
($user_obj['User']['username']) where in my case "user_obj" is the
User1 and "parent" is User2. and I have to link it to ORIGINAL video
show page. here is my favorites.ctp file
