Filter Records on Distant Association
Hi All,
So I'm a bit stuck on the above and I keep getting an sql server error. Yes
I'm using mssql server :| - not my database.
A little background, my relationships concerned look like this:
AssetMaintenanceRecord->(belongs to)->Asset->(belongs to)->Project->(has
one)->ProjectManager
(note ProjectManager is like an alias model for a personnel table. The
project table has an id for ProjectManager which is just the personnel id.
So I'm trying to do a simple filter whereby I select all the
AssetMaintenanceRecords by a search on ProjectManager.
The related index function in AssetMaintenanceRecordsController.php looks
like:
public function index() {
> $conditions = NULL;
> if (isset($this->params['url']['report']) &&
> $this->params['url']['report'] == 'open') {
> $conditions[] = array('CompletedDate' => NULL);
> }
>
> if (isset($this->params['url']['report']) &&
> $this->params['url']['report'] == 'notified') {
> $conditions[] = array('NotifiedDate BETWEEN ? AND ?' =>
> array(date('M d Y g:iA', strtotime($this->params['url']['datefrom'])),
> date('M d Y g:iA', strtotime($this->params['url']['dateto'];
> }
>

> }
>

Without the ProjectManager filter it works fine and I can echo out the
ProjectManager array etc. but when I enter in a search term I get this
error:
The multi-part identifier "ProjectManager.PerSurname" could not be bound.

The executed sql looks like:
'SELECT TOP 10 [AssetMaintenanceRecord].[MtceRegID] AS

Re: CakePHP (2.1) Media Plugin - Multi File Upload
Just thought I'd post my slightly cleaner solution to this which makes
use of a modified version of the attachments element in the media
plugin. This allows you to use the attachment multiple times in a form
for when you have different groups of attachments i.e. photos, files,
videos etc. I'm no programmer, just a designer so there's probably a
better way to do it but I don't know it :)
To save me editing too much I'll just use my example of a
ProjectProfile model:
ProjectProfile.php >
array(
'className' => 'Project',
'foreignKey' => 'pjID'
//'conditions' => '',
//'fields' => '',
//'order' => ''
)
);
var $hasMany = array(
'Photo' => array(
'className' => 'Media.Attachment',
'order' => 'Photo.basename, Photo.id',
'foreignKey' => 'foreign_key',
'conditions' => array('Photo.model' => 'ProjectProfile',
'Photo.group' => 'Photo'),
'dependent' => true),
'Attachment' => array(
'className' => 'Media.Attachment',
'order' => 'Attachment.basename, Attachment.id',
'foreignKey' => 'foreign_key',
'conditions' => array('Attachment.model' =>
'ProjectProfile', 'Attachment.group' => 'Attachment'),
'dependent' => true)
);
}
ProjectProfilesControler.php >
ProjectProfile->id = $id;
if (!$this->ProjectProfile->exists()) {
throw new NotFoundException(__('Invalid project
profile'));
}
if ($this->request->is('post') || $this->request->is('put')) {
//convert cakephp html5 file upload
data array to media plugin
required format
$model =
Inflector::classify($this->params['controller']);
foreach
($this->request->data[$model]['assocAlias'] as
$assocAlias) {
$i = 0;
foreach
($this->request->data[$model][$assocAlias.'files'] as
$file) {
$this->set($this->request->data[$assocAlias][$i]['model'] =
$model);
$this->set($this->request->data[$assocAlias][$i]['group'] =
strtolower($assocAlias));
$this->set($this->request->data[$assocAlias][$i]['file'] =
$this->request->data[$model][$assocAlias.'files'][$i]);
$i++;
}
}
if
($this->ProjectProfile->saveAll($this->request->data)) {
$this->Session->setFlash(__('The project
profile has been
saved'));
$this->redirect(array('action' => 'admin_edit',
$id));
} else {
$this->Session->setFlash(__('The project
profile could not be
saved. Please, try again.'));
}
} else {
$this->request->data =
$this->ProjectProfile->read(null, $id);
}
$projects = $this->ProjectProfile->Project->find('list',
array('fields' => array('Project.pjID', 'Project.pntitle')));
$this->set(compact('projects'));
}
?>
Then in the view/form:
admin_edit.php >
Form->create('ProjectProfile',
array('type'=>'file'));?>
Form->input('id');
echo $this->Form->input('pjID', array('label' => 'Project',
'options' => $projects));
echo $this->Form->input('description');
echo $this->Form->input('longitude');
echo $this->Form->input('latitude');
echo $this->Form->input('major', array('label' => 'Major
Project'));
//The num variable below is just used in the media
attachments element so the controller can loop through the array, so
just make sure you give each of the nums a sequential numerical order.
The assocAlias just sets the group of attachments.
echo $this->element('Media.attachments', array('model' =>
'ProjectProfile', 'assocAlias' => 'Photo', 'num' => 0));
echo $this->element('Media.attachments', array('model' =>
'ProjectProfile', 'assocAlias' => 'Attachment', 'num' => 1));
?>
Form->end(__('Submit'));?>
Then this is a slightly modified version of the media attachment
element, replace with this version...
/Plugin/Media/View/Elements/attachment.php
Media) || !is_a($this->Media, 'MediaHelper')) {
$message = 'Attachments Element - The media helper is not loaded but
required.';
Re: CakePHP (2.1) Media Plugin - Multi File Upload
Well this whole project has made me realise how much I suck at Ajax/JS
etc. I ended up getting this working using cakephp's HTML5 multi file
support and converting that data array to one that the media plugin
would understand (as per Jeremy's first suggestion!).
In case anybody else is looking to do this...
In the view add to your form:
echo $this->Form->input('files.', array('type' => 'file',
'multiple'));
So that'll allow you to select multiple files.
In the controller do something like:
$i = 0;
foreach ($this->request->data['Model']['files'] as $file) {
$this->set($this->request->data['Photo'][$i]['model'] = 'Model');
$this->set($this->request->data['Photo'][$i]['group'] = 'group');
$this->set($this->request->data['Photo'][$i]['file'] = $this->request-
>data['Model']['files'][$i]);
$i++;
}
Then make sure you have saveAll:
if ($this->Model->saveAll($this->request->data)) { ...
I'm going to spend some time sorting it out better and making it as
reusable as possible. This solution is good for me as it's for an
intranet site so I have control over what browser people are using.
And if the users's browser doesn't support html5 then they can still
upload, just one file at a time.
Thanks for your suggestions Jeremy.

Re: CakePHP (2.1) Media Plugin - Multi File Upload
Sorry I never got notified of replies for some reason, I will try this
looping method I think it could work.

CakePHP (2.1) Media Plugin - Multi File Upload
Hi All,
I'm using the cakephp media plugin in my project using the monolithic
style attachments table, i.e. all the attachments go in the one table
with foreign_key, model, group etc. saved with the file details. So my
model looks like:
class ProjectProfile extends AppModel {
var $name = 'ProjectProfile';
var $useDbConfig = 'default';
var $useTable = 'project_profiles';
var $actsAs = array('Media.Transfer', 'Media.Generator');
public $belongsTo = array(
'Project' => array(
'className' => 'Project',
'foreignKey' => 'pjID'
)
);
var $hasMany = array(
'Photo' => array(
'className' => 'Media.Attachment',
'order' => 'Photo.basename, Photo.id',
'foreignKey' => 'foreign_key',
'conditions' => array('Photo.model' => 'ProjectProfile',
'Photo.group' => 'Photo'),
'dependent' => true)
);
Then a saveAll in the controller when saving my record saves the
attached file(s).
This all works fine, however I'd really like to be able to upload
multiple files at once, which the plugin does support by doing this in
the form:
echo $this->Form->hidden('Photo.0.model', array('value' => 'Photo'));
echo $this->Form->input('Photo.0.file', array('type' => 'file');
echo $this->Form->hidden('Photo.1.model', array('value' => 'Photo'));
echo $this->Form->input('Photo.1.file', array('type' => 'file');
echo $this->Form->hidden('Photo.2.model', array('value' => 'Photo'));
echo $this->Form->input('Photo.2.file', array('type' => 'file');
But I think you'd agree that's a bit cumbersome to have to click
browse for each individual file. The simplist method I could see to to
allow multiple file uploads was to use the HTML5 multiple file section
option -
http://bakery.cakephp.org/articles/veganista/2012/01/31/html_5_multiple_file_upload_with_cake
:
echo $this->Form->input('files.', array('type' => 'file',
'multiple'));
This allows you to shift click in the file browser to select multiple
files then puts the files into an array to save... however, this field
format isn't handled by the media plugin. Also, there'd be no way to
add the model, group etc. fields on the save as far as I could see.
So, does anybody know how I can handle multi file uploads with the
media plugin using the monolithic model? I'm open to all suggestions.
Thanks in advance.

Re: HABTM pagination issue
Actually, I found when I did it with the above code I lost all my
existing relationships which caused problems.
I worked out a better way:
$this->News->bindModel(array('hasOne' => array('NewsVenue')), false);
$this->set(array('news' => $this->paginate('News', array
('NewsVenue.venue_id' => 1;
Hope that helps somebody.

Custom Route + Param breaks Pagination
Hi All,
I've got a custom route which points to a sub-controller:
Router::connect('/happyvalley/news/:action/*', array('controller' =>
'happyvalley_news', 'prefix' => 'happyvalley', 'happyvalley' =>
true));
It all works fairly well except for when I add a custom parameter, in
this case 'q' (which is a search query) it completely breaks
pagination and the next/previous links show something like: /
happyvalley_news/happyvalley_index/page:2/q:test/happyvalley:1
So I did my research and found I should put something like this in my
view:
$paginator->options(array('url' => array_merge($this->passedArgs, array
('happyvalley' => true;
Again It all works perfectly until my custom param gets in there.
Anybody have any ideas?
TIA
-Brett
PS... thought I better include the two controller functions:
function happyvalley_index() {
$options['conditions'] = array('News.publish' => 1,
'NewsVenue.venue_id' => 1);
if (isset($this->passedArgs['q'])) {
$input = $this->passedArgs['q'];
$q = $input;
$options['conditions'] = array(
"MATCH(News.title,News.body) AGAINST('$q' IN BOOLEAN
MODE)",
array('News.publish' => 1, 'NewsVenue.venue_id' => 1));
}
$this->News->recursive = 2;
$this->News->NewsVenue->bindModel(array('belongsTo' =>
array('News',
'Venue')), false);
$this->set(array('news' => $this->paginate('NewsVenue', $options
['conditions'])));
$this->layout = 'default_happyvalley';
$this->viewPath = 'news/happyvalley';
}
function happyvalley_results() {
if (($this->params['url']['q']) <> NULL) {
$input = $this->params['url']['q'];
$q = $input;
$this->redirect(array('happyvalley' => TRUE,
'action'=>'happyvalley_index'.'/q:'.$q), null, true);
}
$this->redirect(array('happyvalley' => TRUE,
'action'=>'happyvalley_index'), null, true);
$this->layout = 'default_happyvalley';
$this->viewPath = 'news/happyvalley';
}
The form in the view just posts to "happyvalley_results" which is then
redirected to the index.

Re: HABTM pagination issue
Thanks for pointing me in the right direction.
For some reason $this->paginate('RolesUser'); didn't work by itself,
but after having the same issue later in the project the solution was:
(where News hasandbelongstomany Venue)
$this->News->NewsVenue->bindModel(array('belongsTo' => array('News',
'Venue')), false); //the false is important here, apparently it stops
the queries being reset when using pagination
$this->set(array('news' => $this->paginate('NewsVenue', array
('NewsVenue.venue_id' => 1;
Cheers.

HABTM pagination issue
Hi All,
I'm having an issue with using HABTM with pagination...
My app has a users and roles table - users HABTM roles, roles have
many users.
In my users index controller I'm trying to limit the pagination
results so that only users with certain roles are displayed.
At the moment I have:
$this->User->recursive = 1;
$this->set('users', $this->paginate('User', array('Roles.name' =>
'Administrator')));
This gives me this error:
Warning (512): SQL Error: 1054: Unknown column 'Roles.name' in 'where
clause' [CORE\cake\libs\model\datasources\dbo_source.php, line 525]
When I do pretty much the same this with a 'find all' it seems to work
ok:
$this->set('data', $this->User->Role->find('all', array
('conditions'=>array('Role.name'=>'Administrator';
Where am I going wrong here?
TIA

Re: Multiple prefixes and reverse prefix routing
I'm nearly there folks. My solution has been to modify the
'controller' part of my links in my views to include /venue/controller
and /admin/venue/controller. This works fine in the non admin links
i.e. /venue/controller/action/id - and partially works for admin i.e. /
admin/venue/controller - but as soon as I add on an id or something it
breaks i.e. /admin/venue/users/view/1 doesn't work but /admin/venue/
users does.
I get the error:
Error: VenueController could not be found.
Where Venue = the name of the venue - there actually is a venue
controller but I'm using generic terms here.
My routes currently look like this:
Router::connect('/venue', array('controller' => 'pages', 'action' =>
'display', 'venue_home', 'venue' => true));
Router::connect('/venue/pages/*', array('controller' => 'pages',
'action' => 'display', 'venue' => true));
Router::connect('/venue/:controller/:action/*', array('prefix' =>
'venue', 'venue' => true));

'action' => 'display', 'admin_venue_home', 'admin_venue' => true));
Router::connect('/admin/venue/:controller/:action', array('prefix' =>
'admin_venue', 'admin_venue' => true));
Note I also have the builtin cake admin routes activated.
Any ideas anyone?

Multiple prefixes and reverse prefix routing
Hi all,
I'm having trouble with getting my routes setup for a project I'm
working on.
See this thread for a little more background on the project:
http://groups.google.com/group/cake-php/browse_thread/thread/33544e08936fba4e/069109e06b3fca09?lnk=gst&q=a+better+way#069109e06b3fca09
Basically it has a main site, then sub-sites for the various venues.
So I'm wanting to setup prefixes for the venues and use them in
conjunction with the built in admin prefix routing.
For example, I'd like the url to look like: http://site/venue/controller/action
Which is easily setup, however I'd also like to use the admin prefix
with this i.e.:
http://site/admin/venue/controller/action or
http://site/venue/admin/controller/action
I don't really care which way around
Now this all works fine except when I use the html helper to create
links, all links revert to: http://site/controller/action
So following the manual I add: 'venue' => true to the link
Which works fine for the non admin route but on the admin route the
links revert to something like:
http://site/users/view/1/admin_venue:1 using this code: echo $html-
>link(__('View', true), array('admin_venue' => true, 'controller' =>
'users', 'action'=>'view', $user['User']['id'], ));
My routes look like this:
Router::connect('/venue', array('controller' => 'pages', 'action' =>
'display', 'venue_home', 'venue' => true));
Router::connect('/venue/:controller/:action/*', array('controller' =>
'users', 'prefix' => 'venue', 'venue' => true));
Router::connect('/admin/venue/:controller/:action', array('prefix' =>
'admin_venue', 'admin_venue' => true))
What am I doing wrong here?
Thanks in advance for any tips.

Re: A better way? Grouping controllers and views
Hi again. I just need some more clarification on this issue. I like the idea of setting up named parameters for the venues in the routes. However, I'm using an ACL system where users can be restricted by controllers and actions. If I understand correctly the named parameters would allow me to do some simple logic in one single controller (i.e. limit the find query's to a single venue).So if I'm only using one controller how can I apply the ACL rules to users/ groups? At the moment I have some groups setup for the venues so that somebody from Venue1 can't edit the news etc from Venue2. Perhaps I need to keep the sub controllers separate after all? --~--~-~--~~~---~--~~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "CakePHP" group.

A better way? Grouping controllers and views
Hi All,
I'm working on a project at the moment which has a main site then sub
sites for venue franchises. The venue sub sites are effectively the
same as the main site but the news items etc are filtered to be only
for that particular venue.
The way I have this setup at the moment is as follows (I'll use news
as an example):
-Just a standard news model
-a main controller for news news_controller.php
-a sub controller for each venue i.e. venue1_news_controller.php -
this is the same as the normal news controller except it has a
condition to filter only news items for 'venue1'
-normal news views
-a venue1 sub folder in news containing slightly different views
(mainly to add a hidden venue id field when adding news so when a
venue1 editor can only add news for venue1) - accessed in the venue1
news controller via changing the view path
-Then I have routes setup ie: Router::connect('/venue1/news/:action/
*', array('controller' => 'venue1_news'));
Now this all works perfectly fine. However, what concerns me is the
amount of times I'm effectively repeating things which are - bar a few
small differences - doing essentially the same thing. Also, if I have
to make changes to the news controller I effectively have to update
each sub controller too.
I'm just wondering if this is the best way to go about things? Is
there a better way where I could have only one news controller/set of
views but somehow add the conditions for the venues on the fly or
something?
Thanks.

$ajax->editor help
Hi All,
I'm currently working on a comments section of my site and I'm trying
to allow the comments to be edited via an ajax edit-in-place field. I
can't work out how the data is passed to the controller though and
also how to access that data in the controller...
In my controller I have:
function admin_edit() {
$this->Comment->saveField('body', ???);
$this->set('comment', ??? );
$this->layout = 'ajax';
}
In my view I have:
echo '' . $comment['body'] . '';
echo $ajax->editor(
'Comment'.$comment['id'],
array(
'controller' => 'comments',
'action' => 'admin_edit',
$comment['id']
),
array('okText' => 'Save', 'rows' => '4', 'cols'
=> '72',
'highlightcolor' => '#d1eeff', 'highlightendcolor' => '#f4f4f4')
);
echo '';
In the submitted view I have:
I can't work out what I'm supposed to put where the question marks
are. In my searching high and low for an answer I came across a
similar post on these groups saying that the data is available in the
controller via $this->params['formname']['field'] - so does this mean
that I have to put the $ajax->editor inside a form? If not how do I
know what the ajax form/field is named???
Thanks,
-Brett

Re: Pagination of search results
Thanks for your input Martin, but I ended up going a slightly
different way...
Basically I decided to use a custom named parameter which in the end
looks pretty tidy. So if anyone is interested, this is what I did:
In my news controller:
function admin_index() {
$options['conditions'] = array();
if (isset($this->passedArgs['q'])) {
$input = $this->passedArgs['q'];
App::import('Sanitize');
$q = Sanitize::escape($input);
$options['conditions'] = array(
"MATCH(News.title,News.body)
AGAINST('$q' IN BOOLEAN MODE)"
);
}
$this->News->recursive = 0;
$this->set(array('news' => $this->paginate('News',
$options['conditions'])));
}
The top of my view file looks like this:
options(array('url' => $this->passedArgs)); ?>
create('news', array('type' => 'get', 'controller'
=> 'admin/news', 'action' => 'results'));
echo $form->input('q', array('label' => '', 'size' => '35'));?>
params['named']['q'])) {
echo "Search Results for ".$this->params['named']['q']."";
}
?>
It basically submits the form to another controller function called
"admin_results". This function is very simple and just grabs the "q"
variable from the query string and converts it to a named parameter:
function admin_results() {
if (($this->params['url']['q']) <> NULL) {
$input = $this->params['url']['q'];
App::import('Sanitize');
$q = Sanitize::escape($input);
$this->redirect(array('action'=>'admin_index'.'/q:'.$q), null,
true);
}
$this->redirect(array('action'=>'admin_index'), null, true);
}
That's pretty much it, works like a charm. Not sure if it's the most
elegant way. If I knew of a way to get the named param into the url
straight out of the form I could skip the "admin_results" redirect
function.

Pagination of search results
Hi all,
I know there's a lot of info around on this already but I haven't been
able to solve this issue myself.
I'm just setting up a simple search which will trawl through the
titles and bodies of news items.
I borrowed some code from the bakery here:
http://bakery.cakephp.org/articles/view/paginating-with-fulltext-searches
I made a few minor changes but it's more or less the same
in my news controller:
function admin_search() {
$this->News->recursive = 1;
$conditions = array();
if (isset($this->params['url']['q'])) {
$input = $this->params['url']['q'];
App::import('Sanitize');
$q = Sanitize::escape($input);
$options['conditions'] =
array("MATCH(News.title,News.body)
AGAINST('$q' IN BOOLEAN MODE)");
}
$this->set(array('results' => $this->paginate('News',
$options['conditions'])));
}
In the bakery article they just had:
$this->set(array('results' => $this->paginate('News', $options)));
But that wouldn't work for me?
So according to the manual to pass the query string to the paginator I
just put this line of code at the top of my view:
options(array('url' => $this->passedArgs)); ?>
So it works as in it returns the first page of results (via /admin/
news/search?q=test) but when I hover over the next/back/page number/
filter links it doesn't pass on the search query string it just looks
like:
/admin/news/search/page:2
If I manually enter a query string it works perfectly i.e. /admin/news/
search/page:2?q=test
Any ideas why the querystring isn't being used by the paginator?
TIA.
-Brett.

Re: Echo Fields of Article Ceator/Modifer in View
So the News items should "Belong To" a user. The problem I see is that
you can't seem to define a "local key"?
My code in the News controller should look like this yeah?
var $belongsTo = array('Creator' => array(

'Modifier' => array(

'localKey' => 'modifer_id',
//can't seem to define this?
),
);
How can I define the local key?

Echo Fields of Article Ceator/Modifer in View
Hi All, This seems like a real n00b question, but here goes. I'm working on an app which has articles - in my case news - and users who create/modify the news articles. Now I found this nifty little behaviour - http://blog.loadsys.com/2008/05/02/automagically-setting-user-id-of-record-creator-and-modifier-in-cakephp-12/ - which automagically records the user id in the news record when somebody adds or edits a news item. So I've got the user id of the creator/modifier in the news article record... lovely. So, how then do I use that id in the creator/modifer to grab say the name/email/username of the user and echo it out in a view? At first I was thinking it would be a relationship, but now I'm thinking I need to do something in the news controller? If anyone could point me in the right direct that would be much appreciated. Any examples would be helpful. TIA. --~--~-~--~~~---~--~~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "CakePHP" group.

Ajax form won't submit
Hi all,
This is doing my head in so I'm posting here as a last resort. I'm
reasonably new to cakephp, I've written a simple CMS app last year but
I'm working on a new v1.2.0.6311 project now with user management/acl
built in. Basically I'm working on the user management area at the
moment specifically a reset password function. Now it's not practical
to have the password field in the "edit user" form because it's not
something I wan't admins to accidentally change. So I've got the edit
user form setup with an ajax link to the reset password action. The
ajax link in the edit form looks like this:
echo $ajax->link('Reset Password', '/users/resetPassword/'.$form-
>value('User.id'), array('update' => 'ResetPassword'), null, FALSE);
So when I click on that the "ResetPassword" div is updated with the
reset_password.ctp view which looks like this:
form(array('action' => '/users/resetPassword'),
'post', array('update' => 'resetPassword'));?>
Reset Password
hidden('username');
echo $form->input('password', array('type' => 'password',
'value' =>
''));
?>
submit('Reset Password', array('url'=>'/users/
resetPassword')); ?>
So I enter a new password and hit "Reset Password"... ... ...
nothing.
The resetPassword section of my users controller looks like this:
function resetPassword($id = null) {
if (!$id && empty($this->data)) {
$this->Session->setFlash('Invalid User');
$this->redirect(array('action'=>'index'), null, true);
}
if (!empty($this->data)) {
$this->cleanUpFields();
if ($this->User->save($this->data))
{
$this->Session->setFlash('The password has been
reset');
} else {
$this->Session->setFlash('The password could not be
reset. Please,
try again.');
}
}
if (empty($this->data))
{
$this->data = $this->User->read(null, $id);
}
}
The top of my users controller looks like this:
var $name = 'Users';
var $helpers= array('Html', 'Form', 'Javascript', 'Ajax');
var $components = array('InheritAcl', 'RequestHandler');
Any ideas where I'm going wrong here? I'm really having difficulty
finding any simple ajax form tutorials for v1.2. The form works
perfectly without ajax.
FYI firebug reports an error in prototype.js on line 2239

Re: Global css navigation menu from DB
So I'm having a crack at using a component.
My component (nav.php) looks like this:
class NavComponent extends Object
{
var $menu = null;
function doNav()
{
$this->menu = "testing"; //just for testing purposes
}
}
In my app_controller.php I have:
class AppController extends Controller {
var $uses = array('Node');
var $components = array('othAuth', 'nav'); // necessary, we need to
have the othauth component so it can do it's business logic
var $helpers = array('Html', 'OthAuth', 'Tree'); // html is always
needed, othauth helper is not a must, but you can do some cool things
with it (see later on)
var $othAuthRestrictions = array( 'add','edit','delete'); // these
are the global restrictions, they are very important. all the
permissions defined above are weighted against these restrictions to
calculate the total allow or deny for a specific request.
function beforeFilter()
{
$this->nav->doNav(); //call the component here
$auth_conf = array(
'mode' => 'oth',
'login_page' => '/users/login',
'logout_page' => '/users/logout',
'access_page' => '/',
'hashkey' => 'MySEcEeTHaSHKeYz',
'noaccess_page' => '/users/noaccess',
'strict_gid_check' => false);
$this->othAuth->controller = &$this;
$this->othAuth->init($auth_conf);
$this->othAuth->check();
}
}
When I try to refer to the $menu variable in my layout (echo $menu;) I
get this error:
Notice: Undefined variable: menu in C:\wamp\www\cake\app\views\layouts
\default.thtml on line 19
Any ideas? Am I even heading in the right direction?
Thanks again.

Re: Global css navigation menu from DB
I still get this error:

Fatal error: Call to a member function findAllThreaded() on a non-

I tried it in \app and \app\controllers and it didn't work in either.
Tulio... sorry but I'm a bit of a n00b, how would I go about setting
the navigation up in a component?
Thanks.

Global css navigation menu from DB
Hi All,
I'm trying to setup a global css navigation menu. Basically All my
pages for the site are in a table called 'nodes'. Each page has a
parent_id so I can use findAllThreaded() to generate an unordered list
using a 'tree' helper (http://bakery.cakephp.org/articles/view/64) I
found in the bakery.
Now when I set this up in a specific function within the Nodes
controller it works fine. example:
In the function 'edit' within the nodes controller I have this bit of
code:
$this->set('category_tree', $this->Node->generateList());
In my default layout page I have:
echo $tree->show('Node/title', $menu);
Obviously this only works when I'm in - /nodes/edit/x
What I want is to have that navigation available on every single page
so I don't have to set the menu variable in each function in each
controller. From my research around the place it seems that using
beforeFilter() in AppController is what I'm looking for, but I'm not
sure my syntax is correct as I get this error:
Notice: Undefined property: PagesController::$Node in C:\wamp\www\cake
\cake\app_controller.php on line 64
Fatal error: Call to a member function findAllThreaded() on a non-
object in C:\wamp\www\cake\cake\app_controller.php on line 64
In my app_controller.php file I have:
class AppController extends Controller {
var $name = 'Nodes';
var $components = array('othAuth');
var $helpers = array('Html', 'OthAuth');
var $othAuthRestrictions = array( 'add','edit','delete');
function beforeFilter()
{
$this->set('menu', $this->Node->findAllThreaded()); //This is
the line in question
$auth_conf = array(
'mode' => 'oth',
'login_page' => '/users/login',
'logout_page' => '/users/logout',
'access_page' => '/',
'hashkey' => 'MySEcEeTHaSHKeYz',
'noaccess_page' => '/users/noaccess',
'strict_gid_check' => false);
$this->othAuth->controller = &$this;
$this->othAuth->init($auth_conf);
$this->othAuth->check();
}
}
Could somebody please give me some pointers or tell me if I'm on the
right track. If not are there any suggestions to achieve what I'm
trying to do?
Thanks in advance.

Re: CMS: How to set pages to have 'parents'?
Still wrestling with this issue. Managed to contact the author of the
script and they re-wrote it a bit, but still no joy for me. See
comments here: http://othy.wordpress.com/2006/06/03/generatenestedlist/
The generateNestedList() function just produces an empty variable. I
did notice in debug mode that I'm getting an SQL error. Some how the
function is trying to query the database with the string
'generateNestedList'.
Just to re-cap what I've got in my app:
--In the app controller file I've got the snippet from othy which
includes the generateNestedList() function -
http://othy.wordpress.com/2006/06/03/generatenestedlist/
--In my Model I've just got:
class Node extends AppModel {
var $name = 'Node';
//The Associations below have been created with all possible keys,
those that are not needed can be removed
var $belongsTo = array(
'NodeType' =>
array('className' => 'NodeType',
'foreignKey' => 'node_type_id',
'counterCache' => ''
),
);
}
--In my Controller (for the edit function) I've got:
function edit($id = null) {
if(empty($this->data)) {
if(!$id) {
$this->Session->setFlash('Invalid id for Node');
$this->redirect('/nodes/index');
}
$this->data = $this->Node->read(null, $id);
$this->set('nodeTypes',
$this->Node->NodeType->generateList());
$this->set('category_tree',
$this->Node->generateNestedList()); //
<--this is the line in question
} else {
$this->cleanUpFields();
if($this->Node->save($this->data)) {
$this->Session->setFlash('The Node has been
saved');
$this->redirect('/nodes/index');
} else {
$this->Session->setFlash('Please correct errors
below.');
$this->set('nodeTypes',
$this->Node->NodeType->generateList());
}
}
}
--And in my view I've got:
labelTag('Node/parent_id', 'Parent Id');?>
selectTag('Node/parent_id', $category_tree, $html-
>tagValue('Node/parent_id'), array(), array(), true)
--My Nodes DB schema looks like this:
http://housepimp.com/cake_nodes.gif
Any help would be much appreciated.
Thanks,
Brett.

Re: CMS: How to set pages to have 'parents'?
Using this in the controller: $this->set('category_tree',
$category_tree);
Just produces this error: Undefined variable: category_tree in C:\wamp
\www\cake\app\controllers\nodes_controller.php on line 47
I think this is correct: $this->set('category_tree', $this->Node-
>generateNestedList('--',
null));
I have a similar bit of code in the same controller which seems to
work:
$this->set('nodeTypes', $this->Node->NodeType->generateList()); // in
the controller
selectTag('Node/node_type_id', $nodeTypes, $html-
>tagValue('Node/node_type_id'), array(), array(), true);?> // in the
view
The problem seems specific to the generateNestedList function, I just
can't work it out. The snippet from Othy is just to advanced for a
poor designer to understand ;(
Cheers,
Brett.

Re: CMS: How to set pages to have 'parents'?
Hi all,
I just wanted to re-visit this again. I've come back after a couple of
weeks break to attempt to finish this project, in particular the
'parent' select list which needs to be indented (for ease of use). Now
I found what I thought was the perfect bit of code by 'Othy' here:
http://othy.wordpress.com/2006/06/03/generatenestedlist/
It's supposed to generate nested lists for use with select/drop downs.
It's a bit light on the documentation and I'm having trouble getting
it to work.
As per the instructions, in my app_controller.php file I put the
following code:
function generateNestedList($indent = ' ',$sort = null)
{
$this->recursive = '-1';
$cats = $this->findAllThreaded(null,
array($this->name.'.id',$this-
>name.'.name',$this->name.'.parent_id'), $sort);
$glist = $this->_generateNestedList($cats,$indent); return
$glist;
}
function _generateNestedList($cats,$indent,$level = 0)
{
static $list = array();
for($i = 0, $c = count($cats); $i < $c; $i++)
{
$list[$cats[$i][$this->name]['id']] =
str_repeat($indent,$level).
$cats[$i][$this->name]['name']; if(isset($cats[$i]['children']) && !
empty($cats[$i]['children']))
{
$this->_generateNestedList($cats[$i]['children'],$indent,$level
+
1);
}
}
return $list;
}
Now in my controller (called Nodes) I've got:
$this->set('category_tree', $this->Node->generateNestedList('--',
null));
This seems correct and doesn't produce any errors, however when I try
to use the category_tree in a selectTag in my view, I get nothing:
selectTag('Node/parent_id', $category_tree, $html-
>tagValue('Node/parent_id'), array(), array(), true);?>
If I just print_r $category tree, it's also empty.
Has anybody got experience with this snippet of code by Othy (I'd ask
him directly but there doesn't seem to be any contact info on his
page)? Or could somebody please give me some pointers??? Alternatively
another method would be appreciated.
Thanks again,
Brett.

Re: CMS: How to set pages to have 'parents'?
Success!
Yes I admit :) I just copied the code from Eric without checking it
(I'm a cake n00b with a design background - not much php/programming).
Just needed to refer to the 'Node' model and change around a few other
things and I managed to get the array out. Then I used the tree helper
to convert it to a unordered list and it's working perfectly.
Now the rest is just details, I just need to work out how to get it
into a drop down and that's about it.
Thanks for all your help people.

Thanks Mariano, I'll have a look at that component once I get the array Eric mentioned up and running. Cheers.

Re: CMS: How to set pages to have 'parents'?
Firstly, thanks for your feedback, but I'm getting this error?
Fatal error: Call to undefined method stdClass::findAllThreaded() in C:
\wamp\www\cake\app\controllers\nodes_controller.php on line 45
Am I missing something here?
Cheers.

CMS: How to set pages to have 'parents'?
Ok, this is doing my head in. Basically I'm trying to setup a simple CMS. So the part I'm wrestling with here is the pages or what I've called 'Nodes' Now my nodes basically have fairly simple fields; id, parent_id, title, summary, body, node_type_id, link, members and publish. It's all pretty much setup and ready to go except for the parent/ navigation... My plan was that there would be a navigation menu that would be dynamically generated from the nodes table by setting it up so that each node can be a child of another page (or it could be at the top of the 'tree' by being 0). When editing/adding a page, the idea would be that the user could just select the parent from a drop down list (which has indented menu options). Now, I can't for the life of me work out how to go about this in cake (i.e. models, relationships etc.). In hindsight it might have been easier to setup "sections" that could be edited/added and then generate the menu from that, but in the past I've found that setup can cause problems. Has anyone successfully setup anything similar to what I want? If so, could you please give me some pointers.

obAuth Errors
Hi all, I'm new to Cake and I come more from a design background... so be gentle :) I trying to setup the obAuth component - http://bakery.cakephp.org/ articles/view/121 Whenever I try to secure certain actions in my controllers ($this- >obAuth->lock(array(2));), I get an error similar to this: Notice: Undefined property: NewsController::$obAuth in C:\wamp\www\cake \app\controllers\news_controller.php on line 21 Fatal error: Call to a member function lock() on a non-object in C: \wamp\www\cake\app\controllers\news_controller.php on line 21 If I try to get into the login view I get this error: Fatal error: Class 'UsersController' not found in C:\wamp\www\cake\cake \dispatcher.php on line 155 This is my setup: in: /app/controllers/components - I have the component code in a file named ob_auth.php <-- is that the correct naming convention? I've tried all other combinations I can think of i.e. obAuth.php, ob_Auth.php, ob_auth_component etc. I have a users controller as per the tutorial I have a model for 'user' and 'group' with the relationships setup as described. Can anybody give me some pointers here??? Thanks in advance. -Brett. --~--~-~--~~~---~--~~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Cake PHP" group.
