  try this:
- open cmd

- execute the follwing command line: php cake.php bake
- then choose what you want to bake and go on.

 Blank screen http://puu.sh/EnFA%20 - This should be cake's default home

 It seems to me like there is some sort of bug with cake bake?

Controller routing to home page issue

[Papa Gateau]

Hi,

I'll try and explain this issue as succinctly as I can.

First off - I'm not a cakePHP novice but neither am I an expert. Our
company has inherited a couple of sites developed in cakePHP (one is
v1.1 and one is v1.3) so I get to delve into it about once every 3
months or so to apply an occasional change.

My problem is this (cakePHP v1.3):

I have 2 models 'person' and 'action'. A single person can have
multiple actions assigned to it.  The current application only has an
admin function for the 'person' (controller,views etc.) as the
'actions' are administered by a different application. My requirement
is now to allow the application to manage the actions.  To this end I
have created the controller and views - however, whenever I try to
access the relevant url for the actions, I am always redirected to the
admin homepage. e.g.

mydomain.com/admin/actions/add I would expect to call the admin_add()
method of the action controller but it just redirects to the homepage.

I have checked the config/routes.php and there is nothing there to
cause this.

My models are defined as follows:

class Person extends AppModel {
var $name = 'Person';
var $displayField = 'title';
var $reputation;
var $locked;
var $belongsTo = array ('User');

var $hasMany = array ('Action');
var $validate = array(

'title' = array(
'notempty' = array(
'rule' = array('notempty')
),
'location' = array(
'notempty' = array(
'rule' = array('notempty')
),
),
);
}

class Action extends AppModel {
var $name = 'Action';
var $displayField = 'title';
var $locked;

var $belongsTo = array(
'Person' = array(
'className' = 'Person',
'foreignKey' = 'person_id',
'conditions' = '',
'fields' = '',
'order' = ''
)
);
}

I'm at a loss as to where to look or go from here.  I am not getting
any error message (debug is set to 2).

Any clues or ideas gratefully received.

PG

Re: Controller routing to home page issue

[Stuart Hallewell]

Ok - this application uses the ACL component.  I needed to rebuild the ACL
to add the 'action' controller into the relevant tables.

It would have been nice if there was some kind of useful redirect or
message  - You are not authorised to access this area kind of thing but
hey ho, problem resolved.

Sorry for the long post!

Re: Display posts on the home page AND posts visible to users only

[Dwayne Hanekamp]

Create a user_id field in your posts databasetable. This way you can
assign
a user_id to each blogpost. Example:

Usertable:

id int(11)
username varchar(255)
password varchar(255)
etc etc...

Posttable:
id int(11)
user_id int(11) -- Redirecting to the usertable's id
title varchar(255)

etc...

Hope this helps!

Re: Display posts on the home page AND posts visible to users only

[driss]

to assign multiple posts  to ur users u should work with the relations
between models in ur case u must add a variable in ur users model
(user.php) which is $hasMany like this:

var $hasMany = Post;

after that u should add a field in ur posts table in ur database which
is user_id

Hpoe it helps

Re: Display posts on the home page AND posts visible to users only

[Jeremie]

Thanks. I start to understand now. However, I tried the belongsTo but is 
just break my posts listing:

class Post extends AppModel { 
var $name = 'Post';
var $belongsTo = 'User';
}


Maybe, I don't understand what belongsTo is supposed to do.

Display posts on the home page AND posts visible to users only

[Jeremie]

Hi,

I am new to CakePHP and I am struggling a little bit. I have followed the 
blog tutorial + other similar tuts. Now I want to display the blog posts on 
the home page. Since my Posts controller is already created, can I redirect 
the home page to http://www.domain.com/posts/ ? If not, how should I 
proceed? (if you know a good resource, please share it with me)

Second, I am trying to create some users. No problems with that. It works 
just fine... but how do I assign  post to a user? I searched a lot and 
watched a couple of videos but can't find a good tutorial about it. If 
anyone could put me on the right track, it would be great. 


Thanks!
Jeremie

Re: Display posts on the home page AND posts visible to users only

[gimmebucks]

You can redirect any links to homepage with routes setting. edit your
app/config/routes.php and replace current code with this
Router::connect('/', array('controller' = 'posts', 'action' =
'index'));
To assign user to post, you have to create user_id field in your post.
You can assign the user_id upon create new post.

Re: how can I set my home page

[mthabisi mlunjwa]

Yes I'm using the Auth component, and yes I've added the Auth
component in my AppController.
 I'm new to CakePhp so this might sound like a stupid question

I added the home action on $this-Auth-
allow('index','view','recover','verify','home');
I thought this would solve the problem but its still asking me to log
in. Please advice.

this is my Appcontroller:

class AppController extends Controller {
var $components = array('Auth','Session','Email');
//var $helpers = array('Time');


function beforeFilter(){
$this-Auth-allow('index','view','recover','verify','home');
$this-Auth-userModel = 'Practitioner';
$this-Auth-fields = array('username' = 'email', 'password' =
'password');
$this-Auth-authError = 'To login please enter your email and
password!';
$this-Auth-loginError = 'Incorect Email or password 
combination.';
$this-Session-write('Auth.redirect', null);
$this-Auth-loginRedirect = array('controller' = 
'Practitioners',
'action' = 'index');
$this-Auth-logoutRedirect = 
array(Configure::read('Routing.admin')

 Sounds like you've added the Auth component (possibly to your AppController). 
 Is that possible? If so, that's what's asking you to log in here.

 If you don't want users to have to log in to see your home page, then you 
 need to tell the Auth component that, for example by allowing the display

Re: Make webroot index the home page

[lauraw]

 If you want them both on the same hostname, then you have to decide how the 
 URLs will mingle. Your DocumentRoot will point to one of the two systems, and 
 you'll set up Alias or maybe Rewrite rules for the URLs of the other system. 
 I know CakePHP comes with Rewrite rules that you're supposed to use; perhaps 
 WordPress does too. You'll have to adapt one or both systems' rules to be 
 able to coexist with one another in the way you want. The one you choose to 
 use as the DocumentRoot should be the one that is the main system that will 
 be used. For example, if you have a big CakePHP web site with lots of 
 controllers and routes, and then just the homepage will be the WordPress 
 blog, consider pointing the DocumentRoot at the CakePHP app.


I like this approach--making DocumentRoot point to the CakePHP app.
I'm just not sure how to or what RewriteRule I need to use to make
http://mydomain.com go to the WordPress main ?

 You also mentioned wanting to use the WordPress user authentication system. 
 If you mean that you want a user to be able to log in to your CakePHP web 
 site using their credentials from your WordPress installation, then that's a 
 totally separate topic to research. I see two options for this case: 1) the 
 user gets a separate loginpagefor your CakePHP app, but can provide the same 
 username and password as your WordPress installation uses (you'd have to 
 write your CakePHP authentication code to access the WordPress user database 
 table, and understand how they store passwords); 2) the user only has to log 
 in once, to the WordPress app, and the CakePHP site knows this 
 automatically (you'd have to find out how WordPress stores user 
 authentication on the client (cookie?) and figure out how to read it).

Option 2 is what I'm going for so I can also use WordPress/BuddyPress'
registration functionality.

Thanks for the help!

Make webroot index the home page

[lauraw]

How do I make my webroot index the home page in a cake environment?

My DocumentRoot in Apache is set to 'myhost/cake/app/webroot'. I have
a WordPress install under webroot that I want to be the home page.

I understood you up to this point. This should result in a normal CakePHP 
installation where your CakePHP project's homepage (by default its home.ctp) is 
accessible at http://yourdomain/

 I have
 a WordPress install under webroot that I want to be the home page.

Here, I don't understand. You're saying you would like http://yourdomain/ to 
not be anything about your CakePHP project, but instead to be your WordPress 
installation? Then you'll have to consult WordPress documentation for how to 
set that up. You'll probably change the DocumentRoot to point to some part of 
the WordPress directory structure. If not at the root of the domain, where do 
you want your CakePHP project to be accessible? You could set it up to be in a 
subdomain (http://something.yourdomain/) or subdirectory 
(http://yourdomain/something/).

Re: Make webroot index the home page

[lauraw]

Ryan, thank you for replying! I'm pulling my hair out :-)

What I'd really like to do is have my wordpress area still within the
cake environment and so under the cake webroot area.I'd kind of like
the two to live together. The reason for trying this is to make use of
all of the WP and other plug-in functionality I'm using (users,
logging in/out, registrations, payment, etc) - making the WP index the
home page for the site. From the WP index I would have links to cake
functionality, available to a member after logging in.

So, it would go like this:

user ---   http://mydomain -- cake/app/webroot/something
(this is the WP install)
user logs in
user chooses cake controller/action --  http://mydomain/controller/action
-- cake does it's stuff

I've tried setting the document root to webroot/something and it does
take me to the WP index when I go to http://mydomain. But I can't
figure out how to access the cake stuff (just getting 'bad request')
from there.

Is there a way to keep the document root as cake/app/webroot, and
still within the context of cake, but somehow get cake to go to
(route?) webroot/something/index.php?

I'm open to creating 2 subdirectories (one for the wordpress piece and
another for the cake stuff) or even using a subdomain. Is that the
best way to go with this kind of situation?

Thanks!

Re: Make webroot index the home page

[Sam Sherlock]

is the cake app to be installed in a subdir called cake

you could put wp in a subdir of the cake app (or otherway round)
but may prove to be more trouble than its worth

in the past I ahcieved this with the following
I found strange things to occur

[code]
IfModule mod_rewrite.c
   RewriteEngine on
   RewriteRule^blog/(.*)$ blog/$1[L]
   RewriteRule^$ app/webroot/[L]
   RewriteRule(.*) app/webroot/$1 [L]
/IfModule
[/code]

others may have better suggestions
but I would go with subdomains

Re: Make webroot index the home page

[lauraw]

Hi, Sam. Yes, cake is installed in a subdir called 'cake.' This is
probably strange, but I just tried this configuration (cake within
WP):

docroot/
wordpress/
  
  cake/

that actually worked out okay in that going to http://mydomain brings
up the WP index and I'm also able to do http://mydomain/cake/controller/action.
I basically made the cake APP subordinate to the WordPress APP.

I have been trying, without a lot of success to understand htaccess
stuff. I'm somewhat familiar with regexp... what exactly does this do?

 ^blog/(.*)$ blog/$1  [L]

I'll look into using subdomains too. Thanks!

The first thing to make sure you understand is that the organization of your 
web site URLs doesn't need to have anything to do with the way files and 
directories are laid out on your server's hard disk.

WordPress and CakePHP both have prescribed directory layouts on disk, and you 
shouldn't stray from them too much. They are also independent systems and 
shouldn't be mixed on disk. Have a directory for your CakePHP app, and a 
completely separate directory for your WordPress blog.

Now you can turn your attention to your web server configuration, where you can 
define under what URLs these two systems will be available.

If you want these two separate systems available via two separate hostnames, 
that's easy enough. You'll set up two virtual hosts. One will have its document 
root pointing at the right place in your CakePHP project (app/webroot), the 
other will have its document root pointing at the right place in your WordPress 
installation (wherever that is; I don't know how WordPress is set up).

If you want them both on the same hostname, then you have to decide how the 
URLs will mingle. Your DocumentRoot will point to one of the two systems, and 
you'll set up Alias or maybe Rewrite rules for the URLs of the other system. I 
know CakePHP comes with Rewrite rules that you're supposed to use; perhaps 
WordPress does too. You'll have to adapt one or both systems' rules to be able 
to coexist with one another in the way you want. The one you choose to use as 
the DocumentRoot should be the one that is the main system that will be used. 
For example, if you have a big CakePHP web site with lots of controllers and 
routes, and then just the homepage will be the WordPress blog, consider 
pointing the DocumentRoot at the CakePHP app.


You also mentioned wanting to use the WordPress user authentication system. If 
you mean that you want a user to be able to log in to your CakePHP web site 
using their credentials from your WordPress installation, then that's a totally 
separate topic to research. I see two options for this case: 1) the user gets a

password as your WordPress installation uses (you'd have to write your CakePHP

Good luck.

Re: FCK editor filling textarea with home page

[WhyNotSmile]

I found the solution to this.  The problem was that my site was in a
subdirectory, but the fck helper file was just pointing to the webroot
as if it was at the top level.  Adding in the subdirectory to the fck
basepath solved the problem.

i.e. in the fck helper, in the constructor, I had
  $this-BasePath = '/app/webroot/js/fckeditor/';
when it should have been
  $this-BasePath = /subdirectory'/app/webroot/js/fckeditor/';

Hope this helps someone else!

FCK editor filling textarea with home page

[WhyNotSmile]

I'm using fck with CakePHP, on some admin pages.  I thought I'd done
what I've always done, but this time around, instead of seeing a blank
textarea in the admin form, I see a textarea which has the home page
in it - the full html.

I looked around, and found someone with a similar solution - they were
told to use '$this-layout = false;'.  There was no more detail, and
it didn't say whether it had worked.  I'm not sure how to do this to
try it out.  If I put it in the controller, I just get the form with
no formatting; the text box still has the home page in it!

Can anyone suggest what i could try here?  I've given my code below.

I really appreciate any thoughts.
Sharon

Controller code:

  function admin_add() {
   $this-layout = 'admin';
   $this-set('title_for_layout', 'Add Page');
   if(!empty($this-data)) {
if($this-Page-save($this-data)) {
 $this-Session-setFlash('Page Added To System', 'default',
array(class = success));
 $this-redirect('/admin/pages/index');
 exit();
}
$this-Session-setFlash('Please correct errors below', 'default',
array(class = error));
   }
  }


View code (admin_add.ctp):
   !-- Various divs  layout things go here - no php --
   echo $this-Form-create('Page', array('action'='add', 'admin'=1,
'class' = 'largeForm'));
   echo $form-label('Page Content');
   echo 'p class=helpEnter the page content/p';
   echo $form-label('nbsp');
   if(!empty($this-validationErrors['Page']['column1']))
$fck-Error = $this-validationErrors['Page']['column1'];
   echo $fck-Create('Page/column1');
   echo $this-Form-end('Add Page');

Display data from specific data in the Home Page

[Ahmed - CakePHP]

Hello Everybody,

As you know, I am a beginner in CakePHP.
I trying to do a blog, simple blog, just as a training in how to build
a websites using CakePHP.

I created few Controllers, such as (users, posts, comments and
categories).
Also I designed the Home Page, which is empty now.

I want to know:
How can I display data from the Tables in the database in the Home
Page.

For example:
- I want to display the latest posts.
also, may be, the latest registered users
or whatever


Can you please tell me how CakePHP deals with this.



Thank you in Advance,

Hi

In one controller add some like that

$uses = array('Post','User');

function myfunction() {

$this-set('users',$this-User-find('all'));
$this-set('users',$this-Post-find('all'));
}

then in router.php

Router::connect('/', array('controller' = 'yourcontroller', 'action'
= 'myfunction'));

Cake is throwing up that error because you've tried to redirect to a

what does your controller code look like?Or maybe it's something in
AppController::beforeFilter().

Do you have a pages controller? If so, adding:

..in your beforeFilter() ought to work.

Re: How to get admin home page?

[saidbakr]

The situation is different. Indeed there is no really mysite/admin/
the admin here is an action from pages controller. But there is admin
routs such as mysite/admin/users/add. What I need to achieve is to set
or make an index page for admin and when the user is being on mysite/
admin/users/add and has a redirect to be directed to a controller
without admin prefix as regarded before.

In more clearance, the problem is:
When the user becomes on some place like mysite/admin/posts and got a
redirect code, the action portion auto prefixed with admin.

The redirect code logic I uses is a method of AppController and it
called from beforeFilter function in AppController too.

Re: How to get admin home page?

[Sam Sherlock]

Hi Saidbakr

I think some meaning is lost in translation

are you trying to have mysite.com/admin display a specific admin controller
/ action?

if so I use the following to display a user dashboard

Router::connect('/admin', array('prefix' = 'admin', 'controller' =
'users', 'action' = 'dashboard'));

this means that the following are the same
mysite.com/admin
mysite.com/admin/users/dashboard

Re: How to get admin home page?

[saidbakr]

Hi Sam

No I don't try to get mysite.com/admin for specific controller's
action. I try to get mysite.com/admin as an independent page to act as
a home page or a dashboard for the rest of admin routes. In other
word, I try to make this page to have some links to some admin actions
of controllers beside some administrative data, such as, unapproved
comments, number of registered users and so on.

Regards.

You can use either:  redirect('controller'='pages', 'action'='display',

use 'prefix'='admin' or 'admin'=true to redirect to admin pages.

Re: Login from won't work from Home Page

[Ponch316]

I fixed the problem and I thought I would post the solution here in
case someone came across the same problem.

After WEEKS of trying to figure it out, I found the solution by
accident. I accidentally commented the $components variable in my
users_controller.php file and it suddenly started working.

I started removing components to narrow down the problem and realized
that, for some reason, the Security component was being the cause of
these problems. Without it, after submitting I got access to the
controller's actions, including login, without a single issue.

I have no idea if this is a bug or an expected behavior, if someone
knows I would greatly appreciate if you told me.

Best,
P.

How to incorporate site home page with custom cakephp cms

[mklappen]

I have created a fairly basic custom content management app using
CakePHP that allows me to enter information into my database through a
number of different web forms. (it's a gaming website that has game
info, reviews, etc...). The app is named 'CMS'.

I developed this mostly to learn the basics of CakePHP but now that I
have it working and have some data, I was wanting to hook it up to my
homepage design so it pulls in the data I've entered into the DB via
my CMS app, However I'm having some 2nd thoughts visualizing how this
should be set up.

Is it better to create a new cakephp app, building the home page and
other pages using the same tables I created/populated in my CMS app?
Or should I start coding my site design into an index.php file with
sql queries to pull content from DB (not using cakephp) and upload
that file to my web server root?

Any tips/recommendations are greatly appreciated,

Thanks!

Re: Why do users keep redirecting to the home page on login?

[John Andersen]

Do you have a beforeFilter in your users controller, and if yes, does
it invoke the parent beforeFilter?
Enjoy,

 Just changed the subject back from solved to not solved.

 I found that unless I have autoRedirect = false in both the

 autoRedirect.

 Can anyone explain why I have to set it in both places? There must be
 something fundamental I don't understand here.

 Thanks

  I had to set autoRedirect to false inside each of the login actions,

  Not sure why setting autoRedirect in the beforeFilter wasn't working
  though as I was under the impression that anything in there would be
  enacted before the action.

  However I guess that a user isn't authenticated until the login action
  and so I guess autoRedirect is set again during the login action. I
  think I'd probably find that setting it in the beforeFilter only
  affects actions other than login.

  Oh well, onwards and upwards :)

Site's home page

[Matias_castro]

I have already studied (implemented) the blog and acl tutorials
getting quite familiar with the basic elements of the framework. I've
also learnt how to use a bit of bake.

My question came when I wanted to start my own web page. I have my
data model, logic, structure (all of them in design), and my home
page. This is where I have the problem! Where do I put this page??
This page should also have a controller right (i'm guessing
appcontroller)? but in that case, it should also have a table in my
database? that doesn't make any sense...

Could someone please point me in the right direction here please? I
would really appreciate it!

Thanks a lot!!

Re: Site's home page

[Bidibule]

Hi Matias,

You don't need a database for your model

You can use the $useTable = false; to disable the use of database in
your model/controller

You can make a 'Page' controller and a 'home' action/view to display
your home page
Then you can use Routes to set your index page is pages/home

I don't know if that answered your question

Re: Why do users keep redirecting to the home page on login?

[DavidH]

I do indeed John. This is my current UsersController beforeFilter:

function beforeFilter()
{
//
// Inherit beforeFilter from appController
//
parent::beforeFilter();

$this-Auth-autoRedirect = false;
}

   However I guess that a user isn't authenticated until the login action
   and so I guess autoRedirect is set again during the login action. I
   think I'd probably find that setting it in the beforeFilter only
   affects actions other than login.

   Oh well, onwards and upwards :)

Re: Site's home page

Yes, I believe that should work.

I have one more dought; shouldn't I use the APP/views/pages/home.ctp
to build up my home page? instead of treating the home like any other
view? and if this is so, how do I controle THAT home? I mean, if I
want it to display contents of a database/table corresponding to
another model (for instance news) where should I do it? I'm pretty
sure it should be a controller... maybe appcontroller?

Thanks a lot!

Re: Site's home page

Copy the file cake/libs/controllers/pages_controller.php to your
controllers folder. Edit you config/routes.php file to have:

Router::connect('/', array('controller' = 'pages', 'action' =
'display', 'home'));

Next, create a view file at views/pages/home.ctp with your home page.

You can invoke elements inside the view. Have a look at requestAction,

Why do users keep redirecting to the home page on login?

[DavidH]

Hi All

I'm still trying to put together a login system of admin and normal
users. It's pretty much working OK; but for some reason I can't fathom
when a user logs in they don;t get refdirected to the page specified
in Auth-loginRedirect(). Instead they end up back at the app root
page. I don't know if this is a problem with routes or something else
I've screwed up. Hope fully someone can help me. Here's some code:

In my app_controller I've this beforeFilter:

function beforeFilter() {

$this-Auth-loginRedirect = array('controller' =
'dashboards', 'action' = 'showdashboard');

//
// Allow the user to see the home page and other static pages
// without needing to log in.
//
$this-Auth-allow('display');
}

This should send all users to their dashboard when they login. This
used to work before I implemented dual (admin and user) logins.

In my users_controller I've got admin and normal user login actions:

function admin_login()
{
if($this-Auth-user())
{
$this-redirect(array('controller'='users',
'action'='index', 'admin' = true));
}
}

function login()
{
if($this-Auth-user())
{
$this-redirect(array('controller'='dashboards',
'action'='showdashboard', 'admin' = false));
}

}
The redirect in the normal users login action was supposed to do the
same thing as the loginRedirect in the app_controller beforeFilter.

Finally I've a home.ctp in /views/pages/:
ul
li?php echo $html-link(__('User Login', true), array('controller'
= 'users', 'action'='login', 'admin' = false));?/li
li?php echo $html-link(__('Administrator Login', true), array
('controller' = 'users', 'action'='login', 'admin' = true));?/li
/ul

If I click on either of these links I get the correct login form and I
can log in; but instead of going to either /dashboards/showdashboard/
or to /users/index/ (depending on whether it's an admin login or a
normal user login) I end up back at home.ctp and then have to navigate
from there.

Why are these redirects not working for me?

Thanks

David

Set autoRedirect to false, it defaults to true.

Re: Why do users keep redirecting to the home page on login?

[DavidH]

Hi

Thanks for your suggestion Alexandru. I set autoRedirect to false in
my UsersController beforeFilter; but this has no effect either. Users
still get redirected back to home.ctp after login.

Re: Why do users keep redirecting to the home page on login? - Solved

[DavidH]

I had to set autoRedirect to false inside each of the login actions,
then it worked OK.

Not sure why setting autoRedirect in the beforeFilter wasn't working
though as I was under the impression that anything in there would be
enacted before the action.

However I guess that a user isn't authenticated until the login action
and so I guess autoRedirect is set again during the login action. I
think I'd probably find that setting it in the beforeFilter only
affects actions other than login.

Oh well, onwards and upwards :)

Re: Why do users keep redirecting to the home page on login?

[DavidH]

Just changed the subject back from solved to not solved.

I found that unless I have autoRedirect = false in both the
beforeFilter AND the login actions then it still does the
autoRedirect.

Can anyone explain why I have to set it in both places? There must be
something fundamental I don't understand here.

Thanks

Hey,

Ideally you would leave the links in place to provide some backlinks to 
CakePHP.
But should you want to remove them, edit the default layout: 
app/views/layouts/default.ctp
If the file doesnt exist, you can create one. You can copy the standard 
one from: cake/libs/views/layouts/default.ctp

Let us know how you go, and if you need anything else.

Cakephp interactive home page tutorial...

[Marcus Silva]

Hi folks,

while many of you may find this question completely irrelevant, i
still would like to ask it and any help would be kindly appreciated.

Does anyone know a good tutorial that I could use to create something
similar to the Cakephp home page sliding content effects?

I do know that Cake uses the jquery interface elements found here :
http://interface.eyecon.ro/ , but I could not find anything there that
I could use.

Been searching on Google for ages and still havent found anything that
I could follow and try to build on.

Hope some of you may be able to help.

many thanks in advance...

Re: Design a Highly dynamic content home page

[[EMAIL PROTECTED]]

It depends on your project's design to some extent.
It has all the preformance downsides of using requestAction but this
can be helped by caching the views in some cases.
On the up-side you can have a setup where the home-page does not need
to be altered whenever a module is added, removed or changed. This is
very important for my application since each installation will have a
varying number of plugins.

Re: Design a Highly dynamic content home page

[teknoid]

there are other, more robust ways to accomplish this, for example by
using cached data.

but really, make it work, then make it work better. keep in mind that
this might be something you'll revisit later, i wouldn't get too hung
up on the performance, because it sounds like you are pretty early in
your project.

home.ctp goes in views/pages/

no you don't need a controller for static pages unless your overiding it

Re: home page

[jinhr]

1) create files:
/app/views/pages/home.ctp
/app/views/pages/mystaticpage.ctp

2) open file /app/config/routes.php, which route any specific url to
corresponding page. Edit following codes:
   Router::connect('/', array('controller' = 'pages', 'action' =
'display', 'mystaticpage')); /* this is for http://localhost/app/ */
   Router::connect('/mystatic', array('controller' = 'pages',
'action' = 'display', 'mystaticpage')); /* this is for 
http://localhost/app/mystatic/
*/

   Notice know the controller is PagesController, action is
display.

3) Done. Check by open url:
http://localhost/app/
http://localhost/app/mystatic/

Good Luck.

no scripts on home page?

[alxlevin]

Hi.  This is my first project with CakePHP so hopefully this is a
simple question.  I'm trying to use the standard views/pages/home.ctp
file to create my home page view.  I've found that I can include
elements but not anything from the htmlhelper, such as images.  When I
try and use it, I don't get any errors but no HTML is outputted at all
from the helper.  I've had no problems on any of the standard view
pages, just this one.  Is there some kind of simple variable I need to
set in order for the htmlhelper to be active on this page?  I'd
appreciate any insight that anyone might have.  Thanks.

Re: no scripts on home page?

[Sliv]

the pages controller uses the home view and by default has the HTML
helper loaded.  Make sure you are using echo $html... and not just

Re: no scripts on home page?

[grigri]

There's nothing 'special' about the PagesController - it uses the
'Html' helper unless you tell it not to.

Without seeing some code, it's impossible to be certain...

...but, were I a gamber, I'd bet that you're doing this:

?php $html-link(...); ?

instead of this (which works):

?php echo $html-link(...); ?

If this isn't it, show some code!

In your case,

/home_page/index

you'd have your HomePage controller and an index view for that.

Yes, you can create controllers that are not associated with a model
or even grab data from multiple models for use in a view.  Crazy
stuff, I know.

Re: Site home page question

[clemos]

Hi Jim

To me, the simplest method would be to use the built-in PagesController.
you only need to create (or change the default) /app/view/pages/home.ctp
and use the router to make it your root index (just like it actually is in a
fresh CakePHP install: see /app/config/router.php)
Then in this view (home.ctp), use renderElement and requestAction to display
your elements:
in general, I use renderElement for static or global bits of HTML (for
example, the user login form) and requestAction to display data from other
Controllers / Models (for example, the highscore display, which would
probably need a method in your scores controller, and a view)

Re: Only able to view home page

[MrTufty]

This is almost certainly a .htaccess issue. I suspect by default
either mod_rewrite is not turned on, or the rule for it is
AllowOverride None.

In the first instance, turn mod_rewrite on (ask your host for
information on how to do that, as it will vary).
In the second instance, change AllowOverride None to AllowOverride
All. I can't remember if you can do that directly through a .htaccess
file though.

Seem that you don't have mod_rewrite enabled in apache

Re: Only able to view home page

[Dragos Chiriac]

1. be sure to move the .htaccess as well. (on windows machines files 
that start with . are not very friendly to work with)
2. be sure you have a. apache, b.mod_rewrite, c. rights to access 
modrewrite.

If is iis then you'll need ISAPI rewrite, and the rules in the ini file 
will differ slightly from those in the htaccess.

How to set title of home page that doesn't have a controller? (../views/pages/home.thtml)

[Anna P]

Hi:) I have one question. For each page i set title in that page's
controller using $this-pageTitle = ''
But how do I set the title of home page (that lays in views/pages/
home.thtml) that shows up when i go to 'http://www.mysite.com' or
'http://www.mysite.com/index.php' ? That home page doesn't have a
controller.
I thought that i can do this in app_controller.php , but when I use
$this-pageTitle it gives me an error.
Please help:)

Home Page?

[[EMAIL PROTECTED]]

Quick question that I can't seem to find an answer for.  The home page
of my site needs to have a lot of dynamic content generated on it.  Is
there a way to generate this content in some kind of controller?  Or
is there a way to redirect users to the index of another controller/
view from the home page?

Thanks!

Re: Home Page?

[housebolt]

http://manual.cakephp.org/chapter/configuration - See section 3
Routes Configuration

Also checkout the pages folder in /app/views/pages/. Anything you
put in there can be accessed from the browser at

/pages/your_page/ (which is equal to /app/views/pages/your_page.thtml
[or .ctp])

and anything you create there can be routed in your routes.php file
(in app/config/routes.php)
