Slightly off topic, but relevant. I have noticed lately that links such as this one: http://groups.google.com/group/cake-php/msg/022622017dd329f8 ...which ought to take me to a forum post are just taking me to the Google Groups index page. The id of the post does not seem to tie up to a post either. I'm aware that Google Groups changed a few months back; am I missing something?

Search function
Hi all, I'm new to cakephp and only know a bit of php so I'm on a steep learning curve since although I've made websites using php and mysql before they were all a bit simple. I'm not looking for code here but some pointers for me so I know what to learn. The app I'm making will end up with lots of members and I'd like to make a search function so people can find other people easily. I've discovered searchable-behaviour-for-cakephp and hopefully that'll provide most of what I want but as another way to search rather than a text box, I'd also like to have the letters of the alphabet so a user can click and go straight to that letter. As well as that, members will say in their profiles what their favourite animals are, ie cats/dogs/horses etc - they'll have 20 to choose from. I'd like my search function to have checkboxes representing each animal and someone who was searching could check the dogs box and only people who like dogs will be listed, they could then also check cats box and the members who like dogs and cats will be shown. If possible I'd like the list to update automatically as each box is clicked. I have everything else set up and only need help with this search part. Assuming searchable-behaviour-for-cakephp does me for my text search box, I reckon the alphabet thing will be something like making a link for each letter and somehow making that link run a query, hopefully that will work. But the checkbox thing that updates automatically I'm not sure about. Is it ajax I need? Are there any particular methods I should be using? -- Our newest site for the community: CakePHP Video Tutorials http://tv.cakephp.org Check out the new CakePHP Questions site http://ask.cakephp.org and help others with their CakePHP related questions.

Re: date time calendar picker
Hello Community,
I finally managed to achieve what i was wanting with calendar.
Good calendar with date,time and seconds. (
http://www.rainforestnet.com/datetimepicker-tutorial.htm)
My code to use above calender in $this->Form->input is:
Html->script('datetimepicker_css'); //(Actual
datetimepicker_css.js i have put under
C:\Projects\cakephp-1.3.7-0-g9f58309\app\webroot\js\datetimepicker_css.js)
?>
Session->read('Auth.User.first_name') . '.'; ?>Html->link('Logout', array('controller' =>
'users', 'action' => 'logout')); ?>
Reports
Form->create(array('controller' => 'users', 'action' =>
'view'));
echo $form->input('StartDate',array('label'=>'StartDate','type'=>'text',
'onclick'=>"javascript:NewCssCal
('IncomingStartDate','MMdd','arrow',true,'24',true)"));
echo $form->input('EndDate',array('label'=>'EndDate','type'=>'text',
'onclick'=>"javascript:NewCssCal
('IncomingEndDate','MMdd','arrow',true,'24',true)"));
echo $this->Form->end('Search');
?>
Thanks all for your input and this is for some else as well if they want to
achieve the same.

Instead of calling generatetreelist() directly, you could call a
custom method in Category model (which would call it). Then loop
through the data adding $depth * $n NBSPs before each nested
title/name, where $n is, eg. 2.
er ... wait a sec. I just remembered that the method already does this for you:
http://api.cakephp.org/class/tree-behavior#method-TreeBehaviorgeneratetreelist
Note the spacer param. Make that ' ' and you're golden.

Re: Easiest way to get data from a model (better way than $model->data['modelname']['field'])?
Great, so now when I need to build my view that displays data from
four different models, I can call set a bunch of times in the
controller for each model. come up with a whole new form helper to
deal with data that does not have a model key. And deal with duplicate
fields labeled 'id' in my html form. Then when I post my data from a
form back to the controller I can put a bunch more code in place to
remap all the view data and try to figure out what fields belong to
which models so I can save them correctly.
Or I could use this new convention in the models only (which would be
ok) and then the cake array convention in the views so I can
constantly second guess what format of data i'm working with.
Sarcasm was intended.
Seriously now. Once you get past the simple one model form app and
really start to use cake, your going to find your new simplified
function is going to get in your way or its going to be used so little
you will question why you still have it. There are many reasons the
cake data arrays are created the way they are. And its NOT because
thats the way its always been, or some ridged developer wouldn't
change. Its because it makes for very consistent and portable data
from the Model to the Controller to the View and back. Its not just
data its also a consistent structured container for the data so all
the cake 'magic' from the model, controller and view can make use of
it.
If you find you really just need a single field for a specific record
you can call the model::field() function which will go all the way to
the db to get the data. (slower but more precise in a few situations)
as in:
echo $this->Post->field('name');
I give you credit on at least one point. You put the code in the model
instead of the controller. So your a bit ahead of a lot of the new
developers to a MVC framework. ;)
One point you didn't mention is multiple records from the likes of
find('all') or find('list'). Or dealing with data that is many models
deep (recursive).
There are many, many, many reasons to use the cake array structure.
I would encourage you to re-read chapter 3.7.3
I assumed quite a bit about your project/problem as you never stated
you had one other than the new shoes feel different than the old ones
your used to wearing. Try them out for a week or so, maybe its just
the change you needed.

Not necessarily. For those who can't change DocumentRoot, there are the various .htaccess files with rewrite rules to handle that.

Re: afterDelete not running as intended
Hi Krissy,
Thanks for resolving my problem, you are a star.
I noticed somehow when I baked the project there were duplicate
models, two files for each one image.php and one images.php and I
guess in a daze I'd added this to the wrong one.
I've learnt a valuable lesson and am very grateful.

RE: requestAction question
Not sure I follow you there. The element on the side only gets refreshed if loaded thru standard HTTP request. Page A, B and C are different controller actions unrelated to each other so to get that data for each page if loaded thru HTTP will require getting unrelated models data if done thru the controllers action. No? Maybe not following you there...sorry if I'm wrong.

Re: Model data appears to unset after save, is this correct?
Thanks Cricket,
I realise a lot of the stuff i'm doing in the model would be better served
in a component - maybe one day if i revisit it i'll break it out properly
into a component... for the time being it "works", and its not "wrong" ...
maybe just not as "right" as it could be :P

RE: requestAction question
Thanks. I am half way thru deciding. I am building a function just to get those 4 fields and cache the data. requestAction might come next depending on how I feel. requestAction in my case would only be called if the user wants to open the page in a new Window why is beyond me but I can not predict the habits of every user.

Re: cookbook experience
Well, originally the pages do not contain any Flash objects (viewing
the source). These elements are loaded afterwords and appended at the
end of the document with some (not always correct) absolute
positioning, e.g. on http://book.cakephp.org/#!/view/1529/Getting-Cake
Firebug reveals something like this attached to the DOM:
http://book.cakephp.org/theme/frosted/
js/ZeroClipboard.swf" id="ZeroClipboardMovie_1">
Why would the page load them when I don't have Flash enabled? Anyways,
it would be possible, within limits, to copy cleaned-up content to the
clipboard with pure Javascript and without using proprietary
technologies.
If the browser has limited access to the clipboard for Javascript I
could imagine something like the following:
Note: this is a quick and dirty hack, really ugly and it only works
with my favorite copy of Firefox :-) (e.g. IE returns all code as one
single line)
A piece of html taken from that same URL above and slightly modified
(see my comments within < ! - - >), where an additional textarea
serves as a container for the cleaned-up code:
Regardless of how you downloaded it, place the code inside of your
DocumentRoot. Once finished, your directory setup should look
something like the following:
Copy to
Clipboard:
/path_to_document_root
/app
/
cake
/plugins
/
vendors
.htaccess
index.php
README
And here goes some rudimentary JQuery code:
$(document).ready(function(){
$('textarea.copycontainer').mouseenter(copyCode);
});
function copyCode(){
var theCode = $(this).parent().parent().find('ol').text();
$(this).val(theCode);
$(this).focus();
$(this).select();
}
and a bit of style:
.copycontainer{
width:100px;
height:1em;
margin:0px 0px 0px 5px;
padding:0px;
font-size:15px;
overflow:hidden;
border:1px solid blue;
}
Now you will see a small blue area to the right of the "Copy to the
clipboard" text. Move your mouse cursor onto this element, rightclick
and copy. Since you copy youself, your browser should not complain. If
he still does... :-)
As mentioned above, this is not tested, does not look very cool, but
something like that should be pretty robust if finetuned a bit.

Re: hiding link from certain users.
Your passwords will work if you don't use the auth component, if you're not
using the auth component, $session->read('Auth.User.superuser'); will not
work. You need to save it manually.
In your example you say "if ($user = 'superuser') {"
You need to do what Ryan says (if you use Auth).

Re: Account activation through email
Then you can just do
if($this->Auth->user($this->data)) {
.. Login fine
} else {
..Login failed
]
You need to set $this->Auth->autoRedirect = false in your beforeFilter (app
controller) to be able to edit the login action.

Place it in your App Controller, in beforeFilter
i.e.
$this->Auth->userScope = array('User.active' => 1);
If active is not set to 1 it will not allow the user to login.
Much easier.

Re: DEBUG=2: My error500 shows; DEBUG=0: I get "not found". --psybear
Just curious, why the "--psybear" at the end of your message subjects?
Google does put in your name and email address for you. ;)

Account activation through email
I'm following this tutorial to add email account activation
http://www.jonnyreeves.co.uk/2008/06/cakephp-activating-user-account-via-email/
I'm using cake 1.3 and I'm using auth and acl in my application
Now onto the problem.
on login, I want to check to see if the user's account has been
activated, so following the tutorial I add
if ($this->data) {
// Use the AuthComponent’s login action
if ($this->Auth->login($this->data)) {
// Retrieve user data
$results = $this->User-
>find(array(‘User.username’ => $this->data[‘User’][‘username’]),
array(‘User.active’), null, false);
// Check to see if the User’s account
isn’t active
if ($results[‘User’][‘active’] == 0) {
// Uh Oh!
$this->Session->setFlash(‘Your
account has not been activated yet!’);
$this->Auth->logout();
$this->redirect(‘/users/
login’);
}
// Cool, user is active, redirect post
login
else {
$this->redirect(‘/’);
}
}
}
to my login function in my users_controller. The only problem is that
it's never entering that if statement. It seems that it doesn't think
$this->data has anything in it.
I'm thinking this has something to do with the automagic elements of
Auth, but I'm not sure.
Anyone have any ideas why this is happening

I realise, from your other post, that you're not doing calling that
method repeatedly anymore. It's really inefficient to do that.
The way I've approached this is to use a FileHandlerComponent and
ImageHandlerComponent. Any controller that deals with an upload calls
__handleUpload() after saving the record. The first component deals
with moving the file to the correct location and the second with
resizing. I split them into separate components because I deal with a
lot of non-image uploads.
Example from FilesController:
private function __handleImageUpload()
{
$this->FileHandler->setModelName('Link');
$this->FileHandler->setBase(WWW_ROOT);
$this->FileHandler->setSubDirectory('files/links');
if ($this->FileHandler->upload('upload', false))
{
$upload_data = $this->FileHandler->getUploadData();
/* create a reasonably-sized image
*/
if (!empty($upload_data))
{
/* resize if necessary
*/
$img_data = $this->ImageHandler->apply(
array_merge($this->Link->image_settings,
array('basename' =>
$upload_data['basename'])),
$this->FileHandler->getBase().$upload_data['directory'].DS.$upload_data['basename'],
$upload_data['directory'].DS.$upload_data[0]['basename']
);
/* Save image details
*/
if (is_array($img_data) && !empty($img_data))
{
$data = array(
'Link' => array(
'id' => $this->Link->id,
'directory' =>
$upload_data[0]['directory'],
'basename' =>
$img_data['basename'],
'extension' =>
$img_data['extension'],
'type' => $img_data['type'],
'size' => $img_data['size'],
'width' => $img_data['width'],
'height' => $img_data['height']
)
);
/* see if there's already an image
*/
$old_image = $this->Link->find(
'first',
array(
'conditions' => array('id' =>
$this->Link->id),
'recursive' => -1
)
);
if ($this->Link->save($data, false))

Re: Easiest way to get data from a model (better way than $model->data['modelname']['field'])?
One slight change: you're $model param is superfluous. There's no need
to pass the model as this is the AppModel. Just use $this when
referencing it.
I'd also check if $this->data exists before doing anything.
OK, one other possibility:
public function data()
{
if (empty($this->data)) return null;
$res = Set::extract(
'/' . implode('/', func_get_args()),
$this->data
);
// ...
return $res;
}
I didn't return immediately because I know that, in some cases, $res
is going to be formatted in unhelpful ways. So some further work would
be needed.

Re: file upload with miles johnsons upload plugin - without model
Your form is posting to a completely different url. Try setting this:
echo $form->create('Model', array('type' => 'file', 'url' =>

Re: any way to omit app/webroot when request image file or directory inside it
You can try setting up some apache mod_rewrite rules. But on top of that, anyone can see that you are sing Cake by checking your form structure, or that you are using named params.

Re: Changing Model Conditions in another controller
Hi heohni!
You could use the Model class' bindModel() method to change the
hasMany condition on the fly. In your case, you must use an option
like this: 'conditions' => array('Subscription.active' => TRUE).
I don't know exactly what is your subscriptions table structure. Then,
you should change the field 'Subscription.active' for the correct one.
An example is showed below:
$this->Member->bindModel(array('hasMany' => array('Subscription' =>
array('conditions' => array('Subscription.active' => TRUE, FALSE);
$members = $this->Member->find('all');

Give it a different alias.
E.g.:

'foreignKey' => 'friend_id',

file upload with miles johnsons upload plugin - without model
Hi
i'm new to cakephp and can't get miles johnsons upload plugin (
http://www.milesj.me/resources/script/uploader-plugin ) to work.
i don't use/need a database for the upload form.
so i created the upload.ctp in app/views/pages
echo $form->create('Model', array('type' => 'file'));
echo $form->input('fileName', array('type' => 'file'));
echo $form->end('Upload');
and added to the pages_controller the
function upload() like explained in the tutorial on miles webpage.
in routes.php i put
Router::connect('/upload',
array('controller'=>'pages','action'=>'display', 'upload'));
thats what i added to the pages_controller:
//uploader plugin
var $components = array('Uploader.Uploader');
var $actsAs = array('Uploader.FileValidation');
function upload() {
//http://www.milesj.me/resources/script/uploader-plugin
$this->set('testvar', "hello world");
$this->Uploader->uploadDir = 'files/uploads/';
$this->Uploader->enableUpload = true;
$this->Uploader->maxFileSize = '8M'; // 8 Megabytes
$this->Uploader->maxNameLength = 40;
//$this->Uploader->mime('image', 'gif', 'image/gif');
//$this->Uploader->delete('files/uploads/filename.jpg');
if (!empty($this->data)) {
if ($data = $this->Uploader->upload('fileName',
array('overwrite' =>
true, 'name' => 'new_fileName'))){
debug($data);
}
}
}
when i now want to upload a file, i get always the error:
Error: ModelsController could not be found.
thank you very much in advance for any help
regards from spain, martin

Help - HABTM Multi-Select Field
Hi everyone,
I am working on a project where I have set up a habtm for Categories.
I am using CakePHP 1.3
The issue I am stuck is as under:
I have a post form, where I have a Milti Select box for categories, so
I can select all the categories that the post belongs to and post it.
It works fine and all the relevant entries goes to the correct tables
(posts, categories, categories_posts).
I am using Tree structure, so I have lft and rght set in the
categories table.
I have two types forms field in different forms which is to be
populated by $categories:
1. Dropdown - for creating new categories in system.
2. Multi-Select - for posts
and code of $controllers that I used is:
Dropdown: $this->Category->generatetreelist (null, '{n}.Category.id',
'{n}.Category.cat_name', '...');
This works fine and list is seem to be in hierarchy
But problem is when I use similar code of Posts form, the category
list is just in plain list without hierarchy. Code used for that is:
$categories = $this->Post->Category->generatetreelist (null,
'{n}.Category.id', '{n}.Category.cat_name', '...');
And in view:
echo $this->Form->input('Category.Category', array('label' =>
'Categories:', 'options' => $categories));
I want to get an hierarchical list of categories in the multi-select
field as set up in database. I tried many ways but no result.
Please advice.
Regards,
Thanks.

Re: DEBUG=2: My error500 shows; DEBUG=0: I get "not found". --psybear
According to the following article, this seems to be the normal CakePHP-way.
http://nuts-and-bolts-of-cakephp.com/2008/08/29/dealing-with-errors-in-cakephp/
So, errors are only displayed to the programmer while developing, and
not to the user while surfing. If you want to display something
different to the default 404 when an error happens, you should call
$this->render('some_error') or something like that.

Re: Have my own Controller::var variable that is not overridden by descending AnotherController::var (but merged)? --psybear
I have created a class that components can descend which provides this
functionality.
http://svn3.xp-dev.com/svn/cakephp/libs/magic_tools/libs/magic_component.php
MagicComponent offers you this functionality by letting you specify
which attributes you want to merge in your AppController and
descending controllers using the MagicComponent::$attributesToMerge
attribute:
MyComponent extends MagicComponent {
var $attributesToMerge = array('someVar');
}
Now your AppController::$someVar and descending controller's $someVar
attribute automatically get merged (they both need to be an array, of
course):
AppController extends Controller {
var $someVar = array('one', 'two');
}
SomeController extends AppController {
var $someVar = array('three');
}
For SomeController, MagicComponent will now automatically set $someVar
to the value `array('one', 'two', 'three')` - as you know it already
from some other variables like AppController::$uses or
AppController::$helpers.
Notice: I think I read somewhere that components should inherit from
Object because otherwise it could lead to infinite loops or something
like that. I didn't experience this problem so far, but be warned!

Re: Is there a standard way of making sure that foreign keys exist?
I have added this behavior to my Subversion repository and created a
small blog article about it... I hope someone finds this useful.
Automatically prevent records with depending children from being deleted:

Re: Easiest way to get data from a model (better way than $model->data['modelname']['field'])?
Just in case somebody is interested... I have added a small method
data() that works a little nicer in my opinion than the standard way
of accessing the data array's values is...
So instead of $this->Model->data['User']['name'] you can just call
$this->Model->data('name')... saves you a few keystrokes. Most of you
guys will say this is not necessary... ;-) And maybe you're right. But
here it goes...
// Put this into your AppModel
/**
* Makes returning model data convenient.
*
* Examples:
* - data('name') returns $model->data[]['name']
* - data('Group') returns $model->data['Group']
* - data('Groups') returns $model->data['Groups']
* - data('Group', 'id') returns $model->data['Group']['id']
*
* @param $model Model
* @return mixed
*/
function data(&$model) {
$association = null;
$field = null;
$params = func_get_args();
array_shift($params); // Remove the pointer to the model (first argument)
$paramsCount = count($params);
$association = null;
$field = null;
if($paramsCount == 2) {
$association = $params[0];
$field = $params[1];
} elseif($paramsCount == 1) {
if(ctype_upper($params[0][0])) {
$association = $params[0];
} else {
$association = $model->name;
$field = $params[0];
}
}
if(isset($model->data[$association])) {
if(!empty($field)) {
if(isset($model->data[$association][$field])) {
return $model->data[$association][$field];
}
} else {
if(isset($model->data[$association])) {
return $model->data[$association];
}
}
}
return false;
}

Re: Is there an easy way to tell CakePHP to use another db setting instead of $default?
Inspired by Euromark's article
(http://www.dereuromark.de/2010/08/17/development-vs-productive-setup/),
I managed to achieve this functionality in my WebTestsWithFixtures
library. So if anyone needs more inspiration, look at the file
database_config_for_web_tests_with_fixtures.php in this library, maybe
it's of use to someone. In my case, the database connection is
established depending on whether a special header is sent by the
browser or not. This way, whenever this special header is sent,
CakePHP connects to the test database (because only web tests send
this header), and elseway it connects to the "normal" database.
I've written more about the library in my blog:
- Why web tests using the development database are a bad thing:
http://josh.ch/wordpress/?p=8
- Finally: use fixtures with your CakePHP web tests!:
http://josh.ch/wordpress/?p=71
I hope somebody else will find this useful. :-) Please leave a message
if you try it... I'm happy to optimize it further.

Re: So IS there a way to use fixtures with web tests or NOT???
(Hey everybody. I'm just looking through my old posts here in the CakePHP user group and try to give useful answers for those I managed to answer myself in the meantime, hoping somebody else will find it useful, too. So please don't blame me for maybe posting the same answer to different questions (they often result in the same answer), I don't want to spam, I just want to help. Redundant information can't be wrong, I guess, and somebody googling for something might find only one of the many posts. So here we go again...)

Re: Making form widgets in cakephp
What version of Cake are you using? Some of your syntax seems a little old.
Normally you would do this:
element('elementName'); ?> rather than renderElement (which I
*think* is from an earlier version?).
You can echo out the flash message:
Session->flash(); ?>
Note that I am using an upper case S in Session, which is the accepted way in
version 1.3.
What error are you getting when you code your way, and do they improve when you
make the changes above?

I have just passed 6 months in cakephp and i am aware of basic
functioning in cakephp. Now i am trying to make reusable form widgets,
which can be put anywhere in the site without considering what
controller and action governs the page, in which that form is
inserted. For this i decided to make forms in elements folder. for
example i made login form in element folder as "login.ctp", and put
the code renderElement("login"); ?> in views/
cmscontents/index.ctp file, now i want to put multiple autonomous
forms widgets in same page, in which no one should any how effect the
other one.
i got a little bit success in beginning but in further steps i became
confused. As in login form i made a login form
and post it to users/login action in users controller, but in next
step if the user not found i had to send failure result inside the
same login widgets above the form fields, i want to use flash(); ?> for this, but as far as i know i can't put flash(); ?> in elements, hence i am confused how to control
all this.
So i need help, how to make independent form widgets in elements
folders, or at least how to handle this issue
Thanks :-)

Folders inside img/
I created a folder cropped_images inside img folder and uploaded my photos there. But when I try to open them in the browser, Apache decides to tunnel the request through cake instead of serving static files, which gives me a warning that I'm missing ImgController. How can I fix it? -- Our newest site for the community: CakePHP Video Tutorials http://tv.cakephp.org Check out the new CakePHP Questions site http://ask.cakephp.org and help others with their CakePHP related questions.

Re: cakephp Messaging sysytem
i just have 2 points to mention for this subject: 1) If you are going to use an RDBMS to store the messages using MySQL then use `InnoDB` as your table engine instead of `MyISAM` 2) This kind of tables by nature grows faster than the most of the other tables in terms of records in your system, and hence you will reach a scalability and performance issues once this table goes for large amount of data, hence i would recommend considering IMAP for such a task. i have worked on such an environments before with very high traffic and very large amount of data and after pulling our hairs off to boost the performance we saw that IMAP was the best solution ever for this kind of tasks Ma'moon On Wed, Feb 23, 2011 at 8:08 PM, euromark wrote: > sure > > CREATE TABLE IF NOT EXISTS `comm_conversations` ( > `id` char(36) COLLATE utf8_unicode_ci NOT NULL DEFAULT '', > `user_id` char(36) COLLATE utf8_unicode_ci NOT NULL DEFAULT '', > `title` varchar(60) COLLATE utf8_unicode_ci NOT NULL DEFAULT '', > `created` datetime NOT NULL, > `last_message_id` int(10) unsigned NOT NULL DEFAULT '0', > `allow_add` tinyint(1) unsigned NOT NULL DEFAULT '0', > `count` int(10) unsigned NOT NULL DEFAULT '0', > PRIMARY KEY (`id`), > KEY `user_id` (`user_id`) > ) ENGINE=MyISAM DEFAULT CHARSET=utf8 COLLATE=utf8_unicode_ci; > > CREATE TABLE IF NOT EXISTS `comm_conversation_messages` ( > `id` int(10) unsigned NOT NULL AUTO_INCREMENT, > `conversation_id` char(36) COLLATE utf8_unicode_ci NOT NULL, > `user_id` char(36) COLLATE utf8_unicode_ci NOT NULL DEFAULT '', > `attachment_id` int(10) unsigned NOT NULL DEFAULT '0', > `message` text COLLATE utf8_unicode_ci NOT NULL, > `created` datetime NOT NULL, > PRIMARY KEY (`id`), > KEY `user_id` (`user_id`) > ) ENGINE=MyISAM DEFAULT CHARSET=utf8 COLLATE=utf8_unicode_ci > AUTO_INCREMENT=109 ; > > CREATE TABLE IF NOT EXISTS `comm_conversation_users` ( > `id` int(10) unsigned NOT NULL AUTO_INCREMENT, > `conversation_id` char(36) COLLATE utf8_unicode_ci NOT NULL, > `user_id` char(36) COLLATE utf8_unicode_ci NOT NULL DEFAULT '', > `status` tinyint(2) unsigned NOT NULL DEFAULT '0' COMMENT '0=ok, > 1=deleted,2=removed', > `last_view` int(10) unsigned NOT NULL DEFAULT '0', > `created` datetime NOT NULL, > PRIMARY KEY (`id`), > KEY `user_id` (`user_id`), > KEY `conversation_id` (`conversation_id`) > ) ENGINE=MyISAM DEFAULT CHARSET=utf8 COLLATE=utf8_unicode_ci > AUTO_INCREMENT=110 ; > > > > > > On 23 Feb., 21:31, Josh wrote: > > Hey euromark, > > > > That looks like exactly what I'm trying to do.

Re: cakephp Messaging sysytem
I have a simplified messaging system. User Message MessageRecipient MessageSender doesn't support composing to multiple users or threaded conversations, works fine as a simple system.

Re: Model data appears to unset after save, is this correct?
Confirming that $this->data is unset after save... in fact unset after the
AfterSave() callback.
Worked around it by setting the filename to a private property on first
generation of the filename
any insight into why this unsetting goes on? I'm sure there is a good
reason..

Model data appears to unset after save, is this correct?
Hi,
I've been working on a very simple app to upload and resize some images, and
name the file in accordance with some information that has been provided in
a form.
To do this, my model has a public method "createFilename", which relies on
$this->data to build the filename in accordance with the provided business
rules.
It was all working fine, until I connected the model to a database table and
started also saving the meta-data now it appears $this->data is being
unset for subsequent calls to the method.
The method is simple enough:
public function createFilename() {
CakeLog::write('debug', 'photo name is '. $this->data['Photo']['name']);
$name = $this->data['Photo']['name'];
$level = $this->data['Photo']['level'];
$category = $this->data['Photo']['category'];
$month = strtoupper($this->data['Photo']['month']);
return $level . $category . $month . $name . '.jpg';
}
According to the information that I log, in the 4 times this method is
called during the processing of the image, the first time $this->data[
'Photo']['name'] contains data, and then each subsequent call is empty.
The first time the method is called is at validation to prevent duplicate
files with the same metadata being created, and this seems to be working
fine, but then the following times (which are used for naming the file after
it has been manipulated, moving the file out of the TMP directory into the
uploaded images directory, and including the filename in an email
attachment, $this->data appears to be empty.
Does the act of saving a record to the database automatically unset the
$this->data variable or is there something else going on here?

Changing Model Conditions in another controller
Hi,
I have a Member model with hasMany Subscriptions.
Now, in another controller, I am calling the Member Model to give me
some data.
I want now to create a find() which lists me all active members with
their active subscriptions.
Getting the active Members is easy, as this information is stored
within the members table.
But how can I get now only the active subscriptions for this
particular member?
When I call $members = $this->Member->find('all');
Cake performs 2 statements.
1. to get all member results
2. to get all subscription results
To get only active members I can set conditions within the find ()
method.
But how can I access the 2. query conditions which is selecting the
subscription results?
Please advise, thanks in advance!

I know that I can define my own validation rules; I have already done so in my project. I'm not asking for CakePHP to provide all possible validation rules for every possible scenario; I'm asking it to provide the most common types of validation rules that almost every project will need to use. Integer and especially unsigned integer validation are in that category. If I am building a ticket-ordering site where I want to know from the user how many tickets they want, then I will have an unsigned integer field in my database for that, and I will want unsigned integer validation on it. But when I bake this model, CakePHP will suggest that I would want "numeric" validation on it. If a user enters that they want 3.14 tickets, the numeric validation will allow that (which will, when saved into the database, be truncated to 3), whereas I would want my model's validation to display an error message to the user instead. I am a new CakePHP user; the humor of the "female needs help!" thread notwithstanding, I find it entirely relevant to mention this, since it means I do not know if I am using CakePHP correctly. Bug trackers are great places to write up things which are bugs; I was not yet sure whether the behavior I observed was a bug or missing feature (though it certainly seemed like it to me) or merely me not knowing how it is meant to be used. The reasons I wrote to this list were: * to verify whether I have understood correctly that CakePHP does not have this (to me) basic and fundamental feature built in; * to inquire whether anybody else has noticed this before; * to express surprise that, when CakePHP is all about tests, this deficiency has not been discovered in testing; * to gain further input from the community before deciding this is in fact a bug that I should write a bug report about -- Our newest site for the community: CakePHP Video Tutorials http://tv.cakephp.org Check out the new CakePHP Questions site http://ask.cakephp.org and help others with their CakePHP related questions.
