Re: Short Names Navigation (like Twitter and Facebook)
I actually got success using some of the techniques in this article. http://snook.ca/archives/php/url-shortener Mostly it was a Router::connect statement and then using a function to do the search I need. Thanks for the help!

Short Names Navigation (like Twitter and Facebook)
I am trying to get an app to work with Twitter-like and Facebook-like short names for navigation (like http://twitter.com/) where is a value referenced in the database. Where should I be looking to do the URL manipulation? I am having trouble getting to the request prior to the normal CakePHP Framework behavior which will return 'No Such Controller'. I can handle the development, just a little confused on where I need to look in the process when Cake breaks down the URL request.

Advice for personalized email (i.e. newsletter, mass email)
I am looking to setup an aspect of my cakephp application to handle the emailing of a large number of individuals with a personalized email message. [THIS IS NOT FOR SPAM] I have been looking around and I cant really seem to find anything that handles this situation well. A couple of the major roadblocks that I have run into are : 1) Persistent connection with the SMTP server. Instead of connecting for one message, I need to be able to connect, send X emails, and then disconnect. There does not seem to be anything out there for this type of behavior 2) The need for personalization in each email. It can not be 1 email with 50 recipients. It would end up being 50 emails each with different information in the body of the email. 3) Request timeout - If I try to send them all at once, the request will time out. I would rather have a setup where an automated process picks up the email and sends them. I have looked into CRON jobs based solutions, found basic queue and deferring processing techniques but nothing really handles this situation, IMHO is a pretty basic problem for any application with users. I know I am basically building a mailing list manager but it is just going to be one aspect of the app. Does anyone have any directions to point me in or ideas for solutions?

Force a specific URL?
Is it possible to force or redirect an entire site to a specified URL? For example, http://example.com/ gets redirected to http://www.example.com/ Is this possible? If so, can someone point me in the right direction? Thank you for the help --~--~-~--~~~---~--~~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "CakePHP" group.

Allowing RSS Feed without the restirctions of Authentication?
I currently have my beforeFilter() function in my AppController setup
like the following for my Auth component:
function beforeFilter()
{
$this->Auth->fields = array('username' => 'email', 'password' =>
'passwordhash');
$this->Auth->loginError = 'Invalid e-mail / password
combination';
$this->Auth->loginRedirect = array('controller' => 'pages',
'action'
=> 'index');
$this->Auth->logoutRedirect = array('controller' => 'pages',
'action' => 'index');
$this->Auth->allow( array( 'home', 'logout', 'contact',
'register',
'confirm', 'forgot_password' ));
$this->Auth->authorize = 'controller';
$this->Auth->userScope = array( 'User.confirmed' => '1' );
$this->set('loggedIn', $this->Auth->user('id'));
$this->set('loggedInEmail', $this->Auth->user('email'));
}
and I have just setup a RSS feed with the RSS Helper using the
tutorial in the CAKE Docs (http://book.cakephp.org/view/483/Creating-
an-RSS-feed-with-the-RssHelper). I am now running into an issue where
my Auth setup is preventing users from accessing the RSS Feed without
logging in (and therefore preventing sites like FeedBurner from
accessing it as well).
Adding 'index.rss' to the allow array does not seem to do anything.
Are there any other suggestions as to what may solve this issue? Can
i somehow ignore or overwrite the beforeFilter() function?
Any help is appreciated in advance. Thanks!

Migration to UUIDs from AUTO_INCREMENT
I am trying to migrate data from a schema that used auto_increment
integers in a MySQL database to a newly built CakePHP framework
application which will use UUIDs for the primary keys. I am having
issues updating the previous records and replacing the old ids ('1',
'2', '3', etc.) with generated UUIDs.
As I am relatively new to CakePHP (but not PHP itself), I may just
have things out of order. All current attempts to update the primary
key result in insertion of a new blank record with a UUID as the
primary key.
Can anyone provide guidance and/or snippets to iterate through the
records and replace the old id in the primary key with a UUID?
NOTE: The id field is already set to CHAR(36) and listed as PRIMARY
KEY
