Re: Wildcard DNS | Domain | Subdomain
Hi all, I am glad to inform you that finally wildcard DNS is working for me. I just add a A type record and added server alias in virtual host. I didn't have to change anything in the .htaccess file.

Re: Is it time for ACL?
Sounds perfect to me, And to anticipate any issues you might have... Here is a good little github project that provides ACL management https://github.com/interlock/acl_plugin Just read it up on the CakePHP book listed on that project, try out the ACL+Auth setup on a dummy project first and then go ahead. Thats what I would do. On Apr 4, 12:13 am, adam_g2000 wrote: > Hi All, > > I've been working on a project, that is essentially an artists > portfolio.

Re: two questions about Auth component
I know for the first issue you must set the post data to null so that it doesn't post back that data to the user. Or maybe just set the password as null. for the second issue, I'm just thinking an idea nothing I've tried out and I'd actually want to see a better answer but, maybe you could set a hidden field to check if it's post again,unless there is an unknown,to me, isPostBack property or similar function in PHP like in ASP.NET, and then force redirect to else where.

Is it time for ACL?
Hi All, I've been working on a project, that is essentially an artists portfolio. She's just dropped a bombshell, previously, the authentication was simple. You either had rights to view the site and it's CMS or you had the rights to view only the site. Now she wants to *lock* certain areas of the site, so that she can show some work, to only some people. So it sounds to me like I need to learn the ACL component. Or is that too complicated for what I'm doing? the site mainly consists of visual 'lists' of links to images (which are in a db of course). In a page of these links, I'm showing the whole list, within a controllers method. When we move forward, it may be that the method will need to show only some of these links based on the ACL, is this level of granularity possible, or does simple ACL stop at the method?

Place action where?
How should this be set up?
User can register as a Buyer or Seller each with different criteria needed
in the form so 2 forms.
Would you make 2 registration methods in the User controller
buyer_registration() and seller_registration(){} or a register in buyer
controller and register in seller controller? Each is a "User".
Thanks,
K

Re: Euromark function guaranteeFields($requiredFields, $data = null) {
Yeah, at first i didn't really relise what this was about.. But
Euromark is right. Just make another function, to which normal users
have access, and change the way it inputs fields. You can read from DB
to see the old values and place them to be sure they haven't change,
and only allowed ones to put from the form.
But interesting topic, until you asked I really didn't think of this
in cake..
There is also another way that came across my mind for doing this.
It's a little odd, but in odd situations odd solutions can be ok.
If you have like 50 fileds in db which user shouldn't be able to
change and 50 more which he should (raelly aqward situation but let's
just say this is it for conversation purposes..), you could make 2 DB
tables. First one is consisted of 50 allowed fields + 1 not allowed to
change and the other is made of 50 forbiden fields. Logicaly, you have
one on one or many on one relation from allowed to notallowd and that
is the that +1 field. So you can set up function which changes those
50 allowed plus 1 not allowed fields , and check for only that one
which is a connection to forbiden fields. So it is kinda boring, but
at least you do not need to check for these 50 fields in your
controller...
I hope it helps a bit, and that you will make success in your
project !
All the best !

HABTM with non-standard fields
I'm attempting to lay a Cake app over top of a legacy database and I'm bumping into a problem with a HABTM relationship. I have a TechnologyIncentive that HABTM EnergySource through a join table (no model). Here are the specs: TechnologyIncentive public $name = 'TechnologyIncentive'; public $useTable = 'incentive__incentive_tech'; public $primaryKey = 'id'; public $hasAndBelongsToMany = array( 'EnergySource' => array( 'className' => 'EnergySource', 'joinTable' => 'incentive_tech_energy', 'foreignKey'=> 'incentive__incentive_tech_id', // incentive_tech_energy.incentive__incentive_tech_id 'associationForeignKey' => 'incentive_tech_energy_type_id', // incentive_tech_energy.incentive_tech_energy_type_id ), ); EnergySource public $name = 'EnergySource'; public $useTable = 'incentive_tech_energy_type'; public $primaryKey = 'incentive_tech_energy_type_id'; public $hasAndBelongsToMany = array( 'TechnologyIncentive' => array( 'className' => 'TechnologyIncentive', 'joinTable' => 'incentive_tech_energy', 'foreignKey'=> 'incentive_tech_energy_type_id', 'associationForeignKey' => 'incentive__incentive_tech_id', ), ); Even when I try a simple find on TechnologyIncentive like this: $es = $this->find( 'all', array( 'conditions' => array( 'TechnologyIncentive.id' => 11703 ), ) ); The SQL log shows that the appropriate query was executed and that a record was returned, but the result array is empty and I get the following notice: Undefined index: incentive__incentive_tech_id If I dig through dbo_source.php for a while, I find that the linking table (incentive_tech_energy) fields do not include that particular field. Every other field comes along for the ride, but not that one. I don't know why it's being left out, but that seems to be why the result never gets populated. If anyone knows their way around dbo_source.php and wouldn't mind helping, I'd love another set of eyes. Could it be that I'm missing something simple?

two questions about Auth component
Hi everyone, I need help..., I am using the Auth component in cake, but I encountered two issues so far and couldn't find good answers, shed me some light please. 1) Register issue: I set up some validation rules for the password field in my user model, so if the password user provided doesn't comply my rule, the user will be redirected to the registration page with error message. Everything is fine except that the password will still be displayed in the password text field (with bullet points), and it's a very long row of bullet points because of the encryption. I don't want the user see the confusing long bullet points. How can I make the password field empty?? 2) Reset password issue: In my site, I allow user reset their password by typing the email in a text box, then the script will generate an email with a link, the users click on the link and they will be taken to a page to reset their password. The issue is when the user finished resetting the password, I redirect the user to the login page. However, when the user logs in, because the "Auth Component" always redirects you to the page where you were linked to the login page (autoDirect is on), the user now will always be redirected back to the "reset password" page. So how can I make the user be redirected to another page (e,g. homepage), after they have logged in. I don't want to turn the "autoRedirect" off, because for most of the time, this is helpful. Thanks thousand times for your patience reading my long post, any implication will be really appreciated!!! -David -- 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.

Put this in AppController:

RE: Validate HABTM Multiple
Nothing. I simply want to first make sure no more than 5 are selected so I
select 6 and submit.
Debug data see 6
Category Category array(
0 => 3
1 => 5
so on.)
But no validation errors for Category. Just the Post...missing title,
missing comment what not
$this->Post->set($this->data);
//Debug($this->Post->saveAll( $this->data, array('validate' => 'only')));
$this->Post->saveAll( $this->data, array('validate' => 'only') )
If I manually set data to the Category I get the messages saying too many
selected so the validation in Category is set correct.
I was just hoping saveAll would take care of this for me.
I can wite validation anywhere set it to any model but figured why should I
have to since all should be all :) Not some.

Re: 1 form 2 models - how to validate without savingAll?
yeah...
a quick overview over the cake "model.php" in "cake/libs/model/
model.php" shows me, that
---
if ($this->ModelName->saveAll($this->data, array('validate' =>
'only'))) {..
---
Does exactly the same as the code provided in the blog post.
It only validates one model after the other. I may be mistaken,
because i don't want to read each and every line of the code now, but
i'm pretty sure it is the same.
Also if you really want to do this:
if ($this->User->validates() && $this->Profile->validates()) {
it is the right method.
If you want to do that:
if ($this->User->validates()){...
//saving the user
//manipulating some data and stuff for the profile
if($this->Profile->validates()){...
The blog method is the right one.
Good Luck with your project ;)

Re: You favorite IDE/ Dev Setup?
I recommend 'Coda' to all Mac OS X users out there! Awesome editor and Coda 2.0 (which is still in development) will make it all even greater! All you need is MAMP (Mac Os X, Apache, Mysql, PHP) and you are all set! As a browser Firefox 4 with the plugin "Firebug" . For collaboration I suggest using GIT.

Re: Euromark function guaranteeFields($requiredFields, $data = null) {
i disagree with Milos in some points
but yes, the crucial point is that the main focus should be the server
side as far as security is concerned
but besides that he proposes hacks that will not only make the code
less readable, it also opens the door for many
bugs and errors as well as bloating the model unnecessarily´.
"if you didn't input required value
(if you even specified what types of character can be used), there is
no way you'll pass submitting"
actually, you will. what if the validation is only checking if the ID
is valid. you still could use the ID of any other user on the site.
and the security component will not be able to do anything against it.
thats why all fields, that are not intended to be changed should be
excluded from being passed on to the model.
this way you can ensure that no harm can be done to them.
its easy, its short (compared to other solutions like milos), its
clean.

Re: Euromark function guaranteeFields($requiredFields, $data = null) {
I just read smth. So one more comment :) Hope I am not borring you. If
you are worried about primary key injection etc, you can always make
rights to do stuff. You can have several functions for doing stuff.
You can grab data in controller and see if somebody tried to enter a
parameter which is not allowed for this kind of users. Like role_id
etc, and if they are not null, you blok the save functions.
Eg.
I have user controller, and I have 2 edit functions and by that 2
different forms. First one is for admins, and second one for users. In
users function I check the data before calling model ($this-
>save($data)) and I see what is in that data. If I find smth I don't
want there I would not call the save data function...
I can't remember if I actually done that, but I think it is quite
doable, because you have access to data var before calling the model..
all the best :)

Re: Euromark function guaranteeFields($requiredFields, $data = null) {
And if you hate programming so many fields, just bake the add form for
the database table and change it the way you want.. baking takes like
a minute to finish .
:)
I am no baking everything I can :)

Re: Euromark function guaranteeFields($requiredFields, $data = null) {
In risk of looking a little bit stupid, I'll ask this. If you need a
field to be required, you can set that in model, so why bother with
other stuff ? doI it that way. You can either use predefined rules of
cake or make your own using regular expressions.. You can firebug all
you want but when you click save, if you didn't input required value
(if you even specified what types of character can be used), there is
no way you'll pass submitting, and user will not even be redirected
from the page.. And if you really need to make something very tricky ,
you can always use ajax . This component of cake is beautiful. It even
flashes messages next to the fields if there is an error with them..
Also one more comment. I do not see much point of protecting your form
from being firebuged... Because, if somebody tries to hack a form on
the client side (smth that is already loaded in his browser) you can't
really stop them. When they receive a form it is kinda their now and
they can change it or do whatever they want with it, because you have
no control over data on his computer. But, in order to make sure no
hacks are gonna happen, just made the same security on the server side
of app and there you have it. The security you put on client side is
for clients. So that it would make their lives easier, when filling
forms etc. But for those evil clients who wish to ruin your work, you
put security on server side and you have done all you needed to do.
Hope i didn't miss the subject :)
All the best,
Milos
