Maybe the best will to to hold the role (admin / user) in the Session
at login time.
The in your beforeRender() (app_controller.php or your controller),
you can check the role and set $this->layout to the desired layout.
Now to find the parent_id of an Aro, you need to read the Aro I
suppose.
$aro = $this->Acl->Aro->node(array('model' => 'User', foreign_key =>
'user_id'));
the parent_id is in $aro[0]['Aro']['parent_id'] but I think ( to
confirm) that you should get the parent Aro in $aro[1] ...
I think holding the role in Session is an easier solution.
hope this helps.
