Re: Best way to setup my comments system
I think you could also use behaviors - put all the common functions
into the behavior and then set each of the model classes to
behave. :)

Re: Best way to setup my comments system
I'm using just one table:
comments with fields:
id, model, model_id...
Post hasMany Comment conditions=array('Comment.model'='Post')

Re: Best way to setup my comments system
I think three table will be better. It will be more clear and obvious if there are relationships between comment and article or comment and photo. Actually, the cost of read or write database is the same.

The predicament is whether or not I should use 3 tables, or 1 table with a type column. comments comments_articles comments_photos Currently im leaning to using 1 table with an enum column type to determine. The problem is that im concerned that the ID max will be reached faster if you are combining all 3.

Re: Best way to setup my comments system
The only thing thats making me go against multiple tables, is I have to duplicate the comments model each time I add more. --~--~-~--~~~---~--~~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups CakePHP group.
