simple cms w/ auth :: username password only to admin console page
Hello, I've been hacking at this for several days, and have modified and toyed with about 7 different tutorials with Auth, only to find none of them provide the actual answer I am looking for - or maybe I don't know what the correct answer is. Anyhow. All I have been trying to do is create: 1) A view that is user/pass protected which allows control of content for the site. I was able to get several login systems working with Auth, but not able to edit any content because the permissions are outside of the login scope or something of that nature. I am certainly missing a link somewhere in all of this. 2) All controllers should be accessible from this view so the content can be modified. I cannot figure out how (although I have done this a million times with straight php/mysql) how to make this work with CakePHP. The problem I keep running into is the /users dir only allows access to that dir, but I cannot create a sub directory in there for example called: CMS, because then the controller classes cannot be accessed by the default core. Anyhow, Id be glad to hear any insight in how to get a stupid simple CMS page setup with access to all of the sites editable content. I don't need anyone to explain how to build a db, a controller, a model, or Bake... That's not what I am asking. Just a bit lost and need some direction. Thanks. -- View this message in context: http://n2.nabble.com/simple-cms-w--auth-%3A%3A-username---password-only-to-admin-console-page-tp2542722p2542722.html Sent from the CakePHP mailing list archive at Nabble.com. --~--~-~--~~~---~--~~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups CakePHP group.

Re: What's the usage of app\views\layouts\js?
For the same purpose as xml, rss, email and etc. When you want to output pure JavaScript (to be executed, for example), you should use $this-RequestHandler-renderAs($this, 'js') in controller. It will set appropriate content-type header and layout/ view subfolder. So Cake will look for layout for such request not in views/layouts but in views/layouts/js. Same for views, instead of views/controller target folder will be views/controller/js On Mar 26, 8:35 pm, joshua josh...@gmail.com wrote: Did anybody know the useage of this folder? -- Thanks Joshua --~--~-~--~~~---~--~~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups CakePHP group.

CakePHP and Forum software
Sup all, Basically, I would like a forum in my cake web-app. I would like users to be able to log in as per a normal cake app (not necessarily using cakes Auth) and then be able to go to the forum section, or do other things that you need to be logged in to do (i.e buy stuff). Has anyone successfully integrated phpBB with the cake Auth ? Is there even any point in doing this ?? I only have a very small user base (about 15 users) at the moment, so i could pretty easily move them over the use the phpBB auth, and then try to hack the phpBB so that i can login from my homepage, and am not automatically taken straight to the forum. There has to be a simpler solution. I cannot find any forum software written for cake (am i blind? i searched the bakery and cakeForge), but this would be the ideal solution. Or do you think I'm better off writing a forum from scratch ?? Ideas, concerns and queries welcome.

Re: SQL query did not get executed for subsequent calls to requestAction
OK, yes it's cache. I used Modell::query() in myAction() and that was
the cause of the problem. Here is the warning I finally found in
Cookbook:
query() does not honour $Model-cachequeries as its functionality is
inherently disjoint from that of the calling model. To avoid caching
calls to query, supply a second argument of false, ie: query($query,
$cachequeries = false)
So the problem was not with requestAction().

cache, maybe?
You're right, though: it's very likely that you'd be better off doing
$this-Model1-Model2-myAction()

I call requestAction('another_controller/myAction') at different

get some data from DB.
I notice that the SQL query in myAction() gets executed only the first
time the requestAction('another_controller/myAction') is called. For
any subsequent calls, the SQL query does not get executed, and same
query result from the first call to requestAction() is returned.
Why is that?
(I know that myAction()'d better be placed in model. However I am
trying to find out why the problem happened to requestAction as I
described.)
Thanks for any insight.

Re: ACL for groups
For nested groups, you should read this post: http://edwardawebb.com/programming/php-programming/cakephp/nested-trees-cakephp In ACL, I (personnaly) think it's a good idea to have a ROOT group, even if you don't use it now, maybe later ;) If you don't want one, a NULL value should suffice.

Re: controller not being detected when view index file is in sub dir of /views
You don't understand views, controllers and restrictions. My /users dir requires login authentication, and that is working OK. But I assume any sub directory within the /users dir will also be protected, and maybe this is where the problem is arising? The root of your mistake - protected is NOT users dir but ACTIONS of Users controller you choose to restrict for non-users. If you want to restrict unauthorized access to some ACTION of some CONTROLLER your should protect it by Auth. You have nothing to do with views and any directories here, it is pure controller task. So just move your products views to normal place (views/products) and add Auth component to controller Products with appropriate allow/deny calls in beforeFilter. That's all. And more: why my view/sub1/sub2/filename.ctp cannot access the controller which is in my /controllers dir? By default view/sub1/sub2/filename.ctp will be rendered on request to controller's Sub1 action filename with request type sub2. For example, request http://localhost/products/latest.rss will render views/products/rss/latest.ctp On Mar 27, 8:39 am, programguru ja...@w3developing.com wrote: Authentication is for controller, not for view. Dr Lobo... I would like to agree with you, but logically authentication (username and password) would be required on a view. I think we are using two different definitions of Authentication. I was only referring to a login screen presented for my admin console. But I would agree the any Authentication methods would be in the controller. -- View this message in context:http://n2.nabble.com/controller-not-being-detected-when-view-index-fi...

Re: Heads up to a few using requestAction in 1.2.2
On Mar 26, 3:41 pm, Martin Westin martin.westin...@gmail.com wrote:
Yes I use it a lot... only for a limited purpose but throughout the
application.
I actually have two reasons for using it :)
Reason 1: Yoy are close. Not email but similar componets none the
less. I have my two components for sending mobile messages (sms and
mms). The application does in some plugins scheduled newsletters. It
can also be messages send by some system event (recieving a message
for example can send an automatic reply)
Sounds like you've got a component where you should probably have a
datasource for the gateway and a Message model (or, some other M based
stuff).
I have an email model (which internally - either sets up a controller
and the email component and renders the view to get the content, or
calls requestAction with appropriate params), and payment model (same,
for the HTTPSocket content) for the same sort of reasoning.
Reason 2: plugins. Everything in my app is plugins except a core doing
common stuff. I use the PluginnameController in each to handle system
integration. I could have chosen to load up a Pluginname model instead
but since I very often need to be at the controller level (because of
reason 1) there was little point.
I have a similar problem at the back of my mind, which I planned to
solve by using a plugin component as the plugin entry point/interface,
and therefore you'd just (either dynamically or otherwise) include the
plugin's component in your controller to make use of it.
I don't use plugins at all as standalone mini applications unrelated
to the rest of the application
I use them much like normal desktop applications do. The core is
independent of the plugins but each plugin relies heavily on the core
for a lot of things.
It'd be neat to hear a little more about your current core
architecture, since I have the need to do something (probably)
similar.
I would love to figure out some other good way to deal with plugin-
interaction... so far requestAction is it.
anyway, controller actions are supposed to be under_scored and that's
the 'fix' for your auth woes imo (or simply if (!empty($this-params
['requested'])) { $this-Auth-allow('*'); }

My problem: Show the user 4 Albums where each Album has = 1 Images.
I started this project in CakePHP 1.1 and realized quickly I couldn't
create an elegant solution, so I've recently upgraded to 1.2.2 and am
trying again.
My code below works correctly and returns a wonderful array with all
the pieces of data I need. The really odd thing is that after Cake has
sent the first query, joining all the necessary tables, it then goes
back to query the Image model 4 times, each time failing because it
attempts to use the non-joined AlbumsImage HABTM association in the
where clause.
Here's the error and offending SQL:
Warning (512): SQL Error: 1054: Unknown column 'AlbumsImage.image_id'
in 'where clause' [CORE/cake/libs/model/datasources/dbo_source.php,
line 525]
SELECT `image`.`id`,`image`.`title`,`image`.`host`,`image`.`path`
FROM `images` AS `image`
WHERE `image`.`status` = 0
AND `image`.`id` = `albumsimage`.`image_id`
ORDER BY `image`.`created` ASC
I don't know why this query is even being issued, but as I say it's
all the more odd because the main query (below) returns successfully.
SELECT
`album`.`id`,`album`.`user_id`,`album`.`title`,USER.id,USER.username,`user`.`id`
FROM `albums` AS `album`
LEFT JOIN `users` AS `user`
ON (`album`.`user_id` = `user`.`id`)
LEFT JOIN `albums_images` AS `albumsimage`
ON (`albumsimage`.`album_id` = `album`.`id`)
INNER JOIN `images` AS `image`
ON (`image`.`status` = 0
AND `image`.`id` = `albumsimage`.`image_id`)
WHERE `album`.`status` = 0
GROUP BY `album`.`id`,`album`.`title`
HAVING Count(* ) = 1
ORDER BY `album`.`created` DESC,`image`.`created` ASC
LIMIT 4
Here is the method of the Album model I use to query Albums where
Image count = 1:
function gimme($num=6) {
$contain = array(
'AlbumsImage',
'Image'=array('ImageSize',
'fields'=array
('Image.id','Image.title','Image.host','Image.path'),
'order' = 'Image.created ASC'
),
'User'=array('fields'='User.id,User.username'));
$this-resetAssociations(); // just in case
$this-bindModel(array('hasOne'=array('AlbumsImage',
'Image'=array(
'className'='Image',
'foreignKey'=false,
'type'='INNER',
'conditions'=array(
'Image.status =
0',
'Image.id =
AlbumsImage.image_id')
)
)
));
$albums = $this-find('all', array('contain' = $contain,
'conditions' = array
('Album.status'='0'),
'fields' = array
('Album.id','Album.user_id','Album.title'),
'order' = 'Album.created
DESC',
'limit' = $num,
'group' = array
('Album.id','Album.title HAVING COUNT(*) = 1'))); // we only want
Albums with 1 or more images
return $albums;

I've been trying to figure this out all day so would /really/
appreciate any insights into this weird SQL error.

Re: Using MySql DB instead of PO files
i once had this idea as well
but it is - as a fact - way slower than the po way
AND i came up with this idea:
language backend with editing/adding multiple languages to their
corresponding __('textPlaceholder')
and exporting it to the .po file after i am finished altering them
this way it is very flexible, additional infos can be attached to the
lang strings and you dont lose much speed
this works only for __() of course
for Database Content to be translated you could use the translate
behaviour

Re: Why is it so hard to find answers on cakephp trouble?
Reply to Ad7six (sorry topic has moved on but wanted to answer) regarding support forums What forums? I have also posted on http://www.cakephpforum.net/. I couldnt find any others apart from this Nabble/Google Group. When you say forum what do you mean? Google groups allows users to pick and choose how they see/recieve info/participate - and it's primarily a mailing list (with typically awesome search for those oft- asked questions). Well firstly this site Google Groups and Nabble LOOK pretty awful and dont have much functionality. There's no highlighting of code, text, quotes, etc. i.e. BB code. Search is really basic. If anyone is familiar with online forums that use software like phpBB3, vBulletin etc. then thats what I mean by forum. A proper discussion forum.

Re: Why is it so hard to find answers on cakephp trouble?
I haven't be discouraged from using the groups to learn :) Actually having a question NOT answered can sometimes be the best, because I have to dig a little more to find the solutions. Hopefully I become more knowledgeable along the way. I agree with those who speak to the way the question was asked. I'm sure I'm guilty of not including the right detail or asking the correct question. There have certainly been times when I think I know what the problem is and hit the google groups search engine with the exact WRONG search terms (as was the case with my last question). I got a better understanding of my issue, refined my search and found a few posts in regards to what I was looking for. I've seen some other folks do this, but if I do find information to answer my own question, I try to reply to my post with that info. Hope that's OK. I'm still learning etiquette on these groups. I'm not trying to ruffle any feathers, but do want to become a more active member of the community. I know the only way to get respect is to earn it, so I'll do my best to earn that respect. For those that want to know I've been involved with web development on every level in the corporate world (develop, qa, change management) for 10 years. Recently became a 'corporate world drop out' to pursue a business in freelance (web design and photography). Mostly developed applications for phone centers and account processing reps.

Re: Ajax gone after redirect
For public viewed sites, I would tend to not use AJAX with a main navigation system. For an admin site, go for it. I don't use AJAX as site level navigation because of what it does (or does not) do with the browser back button. People still reply on that button as a main navigation tool and when you use AJAX that back button isn't correct and they ended somewhere unexpected. JMHO.

Re: Why is it so hard to find answers on cakephp trouble?
Affinity when you say right forum I disagree. Google Groups to which I am signed up some direct to my gmail account- this centralises amass of information for me - I agree nabble is rather awkward to view - google groups (browsing archives not in gmail) is not bad at all perhaps this is just taste. A great benefit of google groups is that its passive involvement the cakephpforum.net requires (more) involved management. Further gmail has filters - so I can set emails from certain list members to be starred foreinstance Ad7Six and others - with gmail notifier I can see emails as the arrive (I am growing to dislike the traditional format of forum - with features offer within gmail) For code highlighting posters can use pastbin - so I don't consider this a problem I can't see what can be achieved with the forums you talk of that can not be done with ggroups and since a great deal of information has been amassed here it seems extremely worth while retaining this. I have recently been getting in to twitter and have found that to very useful ina novel way (much cake information coming to me) For me I felt that the cakephpforum (it now seems more active perhaps numbers of those who wish another style of forum has grown) when I was last there look inactive compared to this group - so I felt that would learn much more watching messages here checking bakery. now with the that I am following @***cakephp http://twitter.com/cakephp* on twitter information happy baking to all - S 2009/3/27 Affinity goo...@affinitywebsolutions.co.uk Reply to Ad7six (sorry topic has moved on but wanted to answer) regarding support forums What forums? I have also posted on http://www.cakephpforum.net/. I couldnt find any others apart from this Nabble/Google Group. When you say forum what do you mean? Google groups allows users to pick and choose how they see/recieve info/participate - and it's primarily a mailing list (with typically awesome search for those oft- asked questions). Well firstly this site Google Groups and Nabble LOOK pretty awful and dont have much functionality. There's no highlighting of code, text, quotes, etc. i.e. BB code. Search is really basic. If anyone is familiar with online forums that use software like phpBB3, vBulletin etc. then thats what I mean by forum. A proper discussion forum.

Building a nearly 100% AJAX app - questions
Hi, Bakers! I've been digging in CakePHP over a month (I am new to PHP, SQL, CSS, JavaScript, AXAJ, and almost whatever Web related programming You may think of). In case you wander, I've been programming controllers in pure C (some of you may heared of this ancient language). So I had to read tons of electronic paper (oh, my poor eyes, and what was that word 'pillow' standing for?) But so far, so good. I had a lot of troubles (maybe I'll document them some day) with making this AJAX thing to work properly and to find ways to make my app look like and behave as a desktop one. So I have one BIG question: should I stick with the Prototype library, or should I invest some more time in mastering the jQuery and use it instead? Prototype does the job for now, but I hear that jQuery is simpler and more convenient to use. I must decide quickly, because the clock is ticking and I have an application to build. The Ajax Helper is helpful, but I guess not enough, according to some people. Also, I want to ask if there is a better way to tickle the fields of a form (i.e. to modify their content/value and properties after an ajax request) than to return javascript by the view (which script is thrown away after its evaluation/execution). I still use the MVC paradigm for the job, but I need to set values and properties dynamicly in the form, preserving the form's actual view and data (with the ability to use the embeded validation mechanism, provided by the model) until final submition. What I mean is populating a combo with options based on the choice made in another combo, enableing other fields when it is time for them to be used, inserting other items in a list and evaluating some totals to be put in some input fields automatically. And some choices made should be validated at submission (like checking for empty fields, for example). Also I don't want to do extra quering the database and rendering the form over and over at every change, keeping track of the work done so far (what's the point in doing ajax requests then?). So, as we know, putting logic in the view is a bad thing, but how you execute dynamic scripts, if they are not in the returned content? And by dynamac I mean script, that will do it's job after the ajax call and then vanish into oblivion. Or am I just too confused with this soup of technologies, trying to consolidate them in the context of Cake... The next month or so my life will still suck a lot. P.S. Why there is a word nearly in the caption? Because only the login form is not ajaxed, and the logged user/admin is redirected to the main view. Everything else is happening in that main view. P.S.S.

Re: Email attachment through form.
I think you have to do the following:
$this-Email-attachments = array('/path_to_the_file/file.ext'); (this
is a relative path, you can supply a full path)
and then you call the mail function.
If You want to attach more files, just extend the array.

Re: Heads up to a few using requestAction in 1.2.2
Sounds like you've got a component where you should probably have a
datasource for the gateway and a Message model (or, some other M based
stuff).
Possibly, I have sometimes wondered why the EmailComponent was a
component and not something else. Any time you have a feature that
does not render to the browser you end up in a bit of a design
dilemma. I took the hint from Email and stuck my stuff into a
component even though I economized on the design (no capturing any
MMS View or anything like that)
anyway, controller actions are supposed to be under_scored and that's
the 'fix' for your auth woes imo (or simply if (!empty($this-params
['requested'])) { $this-Auth-allow('*'); }
The thing was that this is what did not work after I updated. Allowing
would not work when the action was requested even though I allowed
everything. That is why I renamed the actions... which I should have
done from the start.
I have a similar problem at the back of my mind, which I planned to
solve by using a plugin component as the plugin entry point/interface,
and therefore you'd just (either dynamically or otherwise) include the
plugin's component in your controller to make use of it.
It'd be neat to hear a little more about your current core
architecture, since I have the need to do something (probably)
similar.
Without being too lengthy (another day maybe).
The core does authentication, user management, global settings and
configurations.
The core holds models for the above things and also common
functionality like sms, mms messages, search-filters, phone-number log
and similar often used model stuff.
The core keeps all plugins in a Model that is HABTM to the User model
so that apart from normal permission levels each plugin can be made
available to a user (or not). Also each plugin can be set as
installed or not since not all out clients should have all plugins
but pulling the same source to each vhost simplifies updates a lot
(and I can install a new feature for a client in a second).
Every plugin can, for example, save their own smses in the core model.
I use a field called belongsTo in a few of these models so that it
is possible to list only items belonging to that plugin. The
Newsletters plugin would have a model setup like NewsletterMessage-
hasOne-Sms and hasMany-NewsletterRecipients-belongsTo-
Phonenumber and so on. (belongsTo is used because any number of
models can be linked to the same number and should globally respect if
that number is blocked for example)
When a message arrives to the Gateway it gets parsed and stored. The
appropriate plugin is notified and given the id of the new message and
can react to it as is sees fit. The same goes for cron tasks which
notifies each plugin to update (= do whatever it needs to do on a
regular basis). Since the plugin decides what to do I feel more
comfortable using the controller level than keeping such decision
making in a model.
I did start out doing these things in models but often found tasks and
situations that asked for or required components , rendering, or
other non-model stuff. Each plugin would require a Pluginname model
who's purpose would solely be to decide which other Model(s) to wake
up. I might try it again but it is not at the top of my (long) todo
list. :)
What aspects of the core architecture were you interested in? Feel
free to ask for more if you are interested. Id be happy to answer and
detail any part of it you find interesting.

Sounds like you've got a component where you should probably have a
datasource for the gateway and a Message model (or, some other M based
stuff).
I have an email model (which internally - either sets up a controller
and the email component and renders the view to get the content, or
calls requestAction with appropriate params), and payment model (same,
for the HTTPSocket content) for the same sort of reasoning.
Reason 2: plugins. Everything in my app is plugins except a core doing
common stuff. I use the PluginnameController in each to handle system
integration. I could have chosen to load up a Pluginname model instead
but since I very often need to be at the controller level (because of
reason 1) there was little point.
I have a similar problem at the back of my mind, which I planned to
solve by using a plugin component as the plugin entry point/interface,

Hey guys,

Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

The findAllBy function by itself does not permit any ordering. You may
have to use a normal find statement like: $this-Project-find('all',
array('conditions' = array('Project.name' = $name), 'order' =
'Project.created DESC'));

Re: Titles for drop-down lists

in your controller: (i'll assume users_controller.php)
---
function user_list() //whatever function you are using
{
$conditions = 'ORDER BY User.first_name
ASC'; //order our list to
make sure its alphabetical by first name
$this-set('users',
$this-User-find('all', array ('conditions'=
$conditions )));//send the list of users to the view as $users
}
this should pull the list of names if your models are set up properly
-
in your view:
-
?
//app/views/users/user_list.ctp
echo $form-create('Users', array('type' = 'post', 'action' =
'userwhateveraction')); // use formhelper to create the form called
Users going to whatever action you choose
?
?php // create select box label and div wrapper
?
div class=selectbox
label for=UserUserNameUser Name/label
select name=data[User][user_name] id=users-box
?php //build selects
//foreach goes through array $users you set in controller
foreach ($users as $user):
//option value defaults to associated user id
echo 'option value='. $user['User']['id'] . '' .
$user['User']
['first_name'] . ' ' . $user['User']['last_name'] .'/option';
endforeach;
?
/select
/div
?php
echo $form-end('Submit'); // close the form
?
hope this helps!
in this example make sure your table is called 'users' (including
whatever option prefix you may have set up in core cfg) and your
primary key is 'id'. first name is 'first_name' and last name is
'last_name'.

Sessions disappearing -- load balancing problem?
Hi, I've written an application that collects users' answers to questions using sessions. It works fine most of the time, but one of our users is having problems with sessions. The sessions seems to be set correctly in the controller, but once the next form is submitted, the sessions from before don't seem to exist anymore. It has been suggested that this might be caused by saving sessions based on IP, since we're using a load balancer. I'm not much of a server person, so I'm much in the know about the effects of load balancing on my code. Any thoughts or suggestions on why this might be happening or how to fix it?

Simple Auth Login System (Code Included) -- Need Tips
This is my first Auth system, and I've been running into some trouble and was
hoping for some advice or answers to the a resolution of my problems.
I've been piecing this together from random ideas and tutorials I have found
online.
First off, I am not trying to build a complicatedly secure system, and this
login function i have going is working.
But what I cannot resolve is:
1) How do I redirect the users to my views/cms/index once the user has logged
in? In my index controller function I tried:
$this-Auth-loginRedirect = array('controller' = 'users', 'action' = 'cms');
- but this did absolutely nothing.
2) Further, login.ctp (see below) I tried to display my logout button like so:
?php if(isset($Auth)) {echo
$html-link('Logout',array('controller'='users','action'='logout')); } ? -
and this did not work either?
I removed all of the non-working code from my below code. But you can see
what I've got going.
I would appreciate any comments, advice, or corrections here cause I just can't
get this to come together the way I need it to.
##
users_controller.php
##
?php
class UsersController extends AppController {
var $name = 'Users';
function login() {
}
function logout() {
$this-redirect($this-Auth-logout());
$this-Session-destroy('user');
$this-redirect('login');
}
}
?
##
user.php - model
##
?php
class User extends AppModel {
var $name = 'User';
}
?
##
login.ctp - view
##
?php
if ($session-check('Message.auth')) $session-flash('auth');
echo $form-create('User', array('action' = 'login'));
echo $form-input('username');
echo $form-input('password');
echo $form-end('Login');
}
?

There may be a way to generalize the code below, but I haven't had the
time to do that though. However, I think this code should get what you
want (adjust Post.* to fit your Post field needs), provided you have
the Containable behavior set up for the model(s) involved:
$results = $this-Post-find('all', array('fields' = array('Post.*'),
'contain' = array('Comment' = array('fields' = array('COUNT
(Comment.id) AS NumComments'))), 'group' = 'Post.id'));
$count = count($results);
for ($i = 0; $i $count; $i++) {
if (!empty($results[$i]['Comment']))
$results[$i]['Post']['NumComments'] = $results[$i]['Comment'][0]
['Comment'][0]['NumComments'];
else
$results[$i]['Post']['NumComments'] = 0;
unset($results[$i]['Comment']);
}
I tried this code out locally and it works for the situation you
described.

Best Practise: Protecting against unallowed save()
I'm working about 2 month with Cake, but its my first bigger app. I want to write my own security function which would check before each save() if the save model is associated to the logged in user, what would be the best way to do that? My Ideas till now: a beforeSave() function in Appmodel: + DRY + relative secure - if I use more than one save() its inefficient (I have up till 8 on one page) - I don't have a clue how I can check newly created ones with no id a beforeSave(9 in each Modell: - even more crappy than above a validation-function in the controller - not DRY - more code + could work with allready readed data I believe that there must be more peaple out there with the same problem, are there any finished solutions?

Array Help
I am trying to update a Profile by using a slug that was created and
saved in the User table. What I need to do is get the Profile.id using
the $slug that is in User.slug
In the controller:
This is in the profiles_controller
var $uses = array('Profile', 'User');
function update_languages($slug = null)
{
if ($this-RequestHandler-isAjax()) {
$this-set('language', $this-User-findBySlug($slug));
if (!empty($this-data)) {
if ($this-Profile-save($this-data)) {
$this-view_profiles($slug);
}
}
$languages = $this-Profile-Language-find('list', array
('fields' = 'name', 'order' = 'name ASC'));
$this-set(compact('languages'));
}
if (empty($this-data)) {
$this-data = $this-User-findBySlug($slug);
}
}
I managed to get the info from the array:
Array
(
[User] = Array
(
[id] = 3
[group_id] = 3
[username] = dave
[password] =
[email] =

Re: Building a nearly 100% AJAX app - questions
You're in for a long uphill battle :) Ajax can get tricky and messy very quickly as you've found out, and you have to deal with cross browser issues. So its not an easy fight by any means. Both jQuery and Prototype are good libraries and they offer much of the same features. Its really a matter of personal choice and what tool you think is going to work best for you. The ajax helper is only intended as way to sprinkle some javascript into your application. Attempting to build a large Javascript application with only the helper would be foolish. If you are feeling lost and without structure, perhaps find some more dynamic sites and pick apart their source. Or look into client side MVC implementations like Jamal or JsMVC. There are also extensive ui toolkits for dojo, YUI, and ExtJS which can help a lot as well. -Mark On Mar 27, 11:04 am, logout stefano...@gmail.com wrote: Hi, Bakers! I've been digging in CakePHP over a month (I am new to PHP, SQL, CSS, JavaScript, AXAJ, and almost whatever Web related programming You may think of). In case you wander, I've been programming controllers in pure C (some of you may heared of this ancient language). So I had to read tons of electronic paper (oh, my poor eyes, and what was that word 'pillow' standing for?) But so far, so good. I had a lot of troubles (maybe I'll document them some day) with making this AJAX thing to work properly and to find ways to make my app look like and behave as a desktop one. So I have one BIG question: should I stick with the Prototype library, or should I invest some more time in mastering the jQuery and use it instead? Prototype does the job for now, but I hear that jQuery is simpler and more convenient to use. I must decide quickly, because the clock is ticking and I have an application to build. The Ajax Helper is helpful, but I guess not enough, according to some people. Also, I want to ask if there is a better way to tickle the fields of a form (i.e. to modify their content/value and properties after an ajax request) than to return javascript by the view (which script is thrown away after its evaluation/execution). I still use the MVC paradigm for the job, but I need to set values and properties dynamicly in the form, preserving the form's actual view and data (with the ability to use the embeded validation mechanism, provided by the model) until final submition. What I mean is populating a combo with options based on the choice made in another combo, enableing other fields when it is time for them to be used, inserting other items in a list and evaluating some totals to be put in some input fields automatically. And some choices made should be validated at submission (like checking for empty fields, for example). Also I don't want to do extra quering the database and rendering the form over and over at every change, keeping track of the work done so far (what's the point in doing ajax requests then?). So, as we know, putting logic in the view is a bad thing, but how you execute dynamic scripts, if they are not in the returned content? And by dynamac I mean script, that will do it's job after the ajax call and then vanish into oblivion. Or am I just too confused with this soup of technologies, trying to consolidate them in the context of Cake... The next month or so my life will still suck a lot. P.S. Why there is a word nearly in the caption? Because only the login form is not ajaxed, and the logged user/admin is redirected to the main view. Everything else is happening in that main view. P.S.S.

Re: Login Security
Another thing you can do is only allow each user to maintain one session. Keep a record of the session hash key in the database and compare on each request. If a user logs in from a different machine they will get a new session hash and invalidate the old session hash. This gets around the lockout situtations you could run into. -Mark On Mar 26, 2:00 pm, Dave Maharaj :: WidePixels.com d...@widepixels.com wrote: Just a general question. Can I restrict a user to only allow the user to be logged in from one location...sounds stupid but some people share acct info with friends / family so this would restrict a user from logging in only once. So for example on login update a field in the user table LOGGEDIN to 1 and on logout set it to 0. So if Jeff shares his acct info with his wife and Jeff logs in then his wife tries to log in (it checks LOGGEDIN if set to 1 someone is already logged in on that acct) she cant because Jeff is already logged in. Or does cake take care of this? If so are both allowed to login in at the same time? Does 1 get the boot?

Auth Unexpected Behavior
Hello there, I'm having kind of a hard time setting up Auth Component,
i'm getting really weird behavior. After configuring my Auth Acl..
I know its a large post, but PLEASE HELP!!
I'm initializing with this code:
function initDB() {
$aro = new Aro();
$aros = array(
0 = array('model' = 'Group', 'foreign_key' = 1),
1 = array('model' = 'Group', 'foreign_key' = 2),
2 = array('model' = 'Group', 'foreign_key' = 3),
3 = array('parent_id' = 1, 'model' = 'User',
'foreign_key' =
1),
4 = array('parent_id' = 2, 'model' = 'User',
'foreign_key' =
2),
5 = array('parent_id' = 3, 'model' = 'User',
'foreign_key' = 3)
); // users groups mysql tables all ready have 3 records each
foreach($aros as $data)
{
$aro-create();
$aro-save($data);
}
// Reads Configure::listObjects('controller') and create an aco
node
// for each Controller with aco root Controllers/
$this-buildAcl();
$group = $this-User-Group;
// Allow admins to everything
$group-id = 1;
$this-Acl-allow($group, 'Controllers');
// Deny all to none admins
$group-id = 2;
$this-Acl-deny($group, 'Controllers');
$group-id = 3;
$this-Acl-deny($group, 'Controllers');
}
In my AppController
var $components = array('Auth', 'Acl', 'RequestHandler', 'P28n');
var $helpers = array('html', 'javascript', 'form');
function beforeFilter() {
//Configure AuthComponent
$this-Auth-allowedActions = array('display', 'index',
'view');
$this-Auth-authorize = 'actions';
$this-Auth-loginAction = array('controller' = 'users',
'action' = 'login');
$this-Auth-logoutRedirect = array('controller' = 'users',
'action' = 'login');
$this-Auth-actionPath = 'Controllers/';
}
It all started because I'm using swfupload and it worked quite all
right without Auth. After auth once I logged in, got to my view, and
when trying to upload (ajaxly through /uploaded_imgs/upload) i gotten
for response the login page telling me there's no authorization for
that request and I discovered that even after login, Auth-user() was
null in that ajax call. If I called /uploaded_imgs/upload directly
from through the address bar Auth-user() was present. However trying
another ajax call, not with swfupload, the auth-user was also
present.
Then i went futher to see what the heak was happening, take a look at
this stuff...
// this is not allowed without login in with or without the commented
lines
// note function has single word name
function publishment(){
$this-layout = denouncements_publish;
//$data = $this-requestAction('/damages/all');
//$this-set('damages', $data);
}
// this is not allowed without login in with or without the commented
lines
// note function has single word name
function pub(){
$this-layout = denouncements_publish;
//$data = $this-requestAction('/damages/all');
//$this-set('damages', $data);
}
// this is allowed without login with those lines commented, how
ever
// when those lines are executed aint allowed. Note 2 words function
name
function publishmentTest(){
$this-layout = denouncements_publish;
//$data = $this-requestAction('/damages/all');
//$this-set('damages', $data);
}
// this is not allowed without login in
// note function has single word name
function jsonfields(){
$this-layout = null;
$this-set('json',
json_encode($this-Denouncement-query(DESCRIBE
denouncements, true)));
}
// this is not allowed with or without login in
// note function has multiple words name
function fieldNamesJson(){
$this-layout = null;
$this-set('json',
json_encode($this-Denouncement-query(DESCRIBE
denouncements, true)));
}
So, getting to the point, how do I get Auth working correctly,
authorizing only the allowed actions declared in appController and
denying the rest to unidentified users. And also, why might uploading
(swfupload) the ajax call to /uploaded_imgs/upload is restricted while
addressbar called works correctly. Why is Auth letting unidentified
calls to some non allowed actions and whats the deal with functions
names that affects Auth for allowing or not a request? any ideas?
I'll really really appreciate any help
thanks a lot
regards
