Re: Data Formatting Errors
Great! Thanks for that. The stuff in the article helped with the saving of the Categories, which had already been created in the database. However, in the case of the Tags, most of the records in the array did not exist in the database. It was not working with either the saveAll () function or associating the Post ID with the tags and then saving. What I did was go through the Tags individually and save them before saving the Post, to which I just passed the array of Tag IDs. Is there a better way to do this? Thanks again!

Data Formatting Errors
Greetings, all, I'm working on a CMS based on CakePHP and I've been enjoying working with Cake so far. However, I'm having some issues saving information. My CMS has a normal post-oriented setup in which each post can be related to multiple tags and multiple categories. I've set up the associations correctly in the models and the views generated by Bake seem to work fine. However, I'm using a custom client and building my array inside the client. The client has the capability of adding new tags to each post, then saving the tags at the same time as the post. However, when I try to save all the data, it fails to save either the categories or the tags. Here's an example of the array that the client generates: [Post] => Array ( [user_id] => 11 [posted] => 2009-08-18 10:20:00 [title] => This is a Great Post! [comments_allowed] => 1 [media_id] => 1 [slug] => this-is-a-great-post [seo_title] => SEO rocks. [status] => 1 [created] => 2009-08-18 10:25:53 [id] => 2 [content] => whatever ) [Category] => Array ( [0] => Array ( [id] => 1 [name] => Latest News [slug] => news ) [1] => Array ( [id] => 3 [name] => Stuff [slug] => stuff ) ) [Tag] => Array ( [0] => Array ( [id] => 3 [name] => college [slug] => college ) [1] => Array ( [name] => snap [slug] => snap ) [2] => Array ( [name] => fish [slug] => fish ) ) Right now I'm passing this into Cake and doing a saveAll() call. It saves the post correctly, but erases all related tags and categories. Would you all have any comments or suggestions on what I need to do to get this working correctly?
