Re: Advice on menu setup
Is the menu supposed to be displayed on every page?
I gather that the menu is dynamically driven by data in the Db...
That tells me that you should have a model for it.
If it is to be included on every page, then I would load the menu model in
the App Controller, probably in the beforeRender() method.
$this->loadModel('Menu');
Don't forget to include it at the top with a use statement.
Then you can set whatever variables you need to pass to your view.
In that your specifications are vague, I can't tell you exactly what to
pass along...
Then with the view vars set using the set(), you can use them in the layout
or in an element depending on your needs.

Your existing menu likely is a series of elements each containing (link) elements, yes? Simply replace the ... with Html->link(...) ?>. A good place to do this is app/View/Layouts/default.ctp. -- Like Us on FaceBook https://www.facebook.com/CakePHP Find us on Twitter http://twitter.com/CakePHP --- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "CakePHP" group.

Advice on menu setup
Hi I'm new to cakephp I'm using version 3 I've been working through an existing site i have built and trying to replicate it with cakephp I did a lot very quickly which is great but the menu is tricky Since this is a navigation bar at the top of every page i thought i might use an element The problem there seems to be getting the data into it from the database I've read the manual quite a bit and based on that i thought maybe creating a model and controller for the menu would be the best way to go Then i could call the menu controller from the article controller and get the menu data that way It looks like i can pass the data into the menu element from there? But then where do i put the code that actually takes the data and generates the menu? I've looked at various tutorials but it's not made things clearer I'd really appreciate some advice here folks.

Re: Best practice to get menu array
By the look of it what you need is a Plugin and inside the Models for the tables you mentioned and at least an Helper to produce the HTML output. I recently used the MenuBuilder Plugin. You will have to add the logic to retrieve the menu from your Models though.

You'd do this with Javascript / jQuery, not sure what you mean by menu. Most solutions for any web projects should be sufficient, a quick google will show you results i.e. jQuery Carousel.

Re: navigation menu using cakePhp tree

Re: Multi-level menu with Modified Preorder Tree Traversal
Hi Sam, I don't have time to make test at this moment, and sincerely i think recursion is the best method to make this work. I can tell you of a solution i found time ago with cake 1.0 in one of my application. The base of the logic is in the query i wrote (the query is simplified i write here only the significant fields): Don't know if it is correct but i think that shows the sense of this approach. SELECT node.lft, node.rgt, node.id, node.parent_id, (COUNT(parent.parent_id) - 1) AS depth, node.description, node.link FROM menu AS node, menu AS parent WHERE node.lft BETWEEN parent.lft AND parent.rgt; this query return a flat list with a depth field that is the hierarchical level of indentantion of the item (node). Then at every change of depth up or down you can write the corresponding or This is a logic i used many years ago, whit cake 1.0 at this time with the new features of cakephp i would never use this method.

Re: Multi-level menu with Modified Preorder Tree Traversal
Hi Sam,
I don't have time to make test at this moment, and sincerely i think
recursion is the best method to make this work.
I can tell you of a solution i found time ago with cake 1.0 in one of my
application.
The base of the logic is in the query i wrote (the query is simplified i
write here only the significant fields):
SELECT node.lft, node.rgt, node.id, node.parent_id,
(COUNT(parent.parent_id) - 1) AS depth,
node.description, node.link FROM menu AS node, menu AS parent
WHERE node.lft BETWEEN parent.lft AND parent.rgt;
this query return a flat list with a depth field that is the level of
indentantion of the item (node).
I think something like this can do the work:
$depth = $items['Node'][0]['depth'];
echo '';
foreach( $items as $k => $item ) {
}

Re: Dynamic menu content in layout
What you are really wanting is the ViewModel. CakePHP does not implement that explicitly but you can get the same functionality by creating a helper and accessing your model in the helper keeping the view clean.

Re: Dynamic menu content in layout
No, you don't want to anything in the view that involves querying the database. The controller action for that given page should know what menu to fetch from database and set that to the view. /thomas On 26 Feb 2014, at 20:39, Sam Clauw wrote: > Okay, let's suppose I want to put my menu in an element called > "top_menu.ctp".

Re: Dynamic menu content in layout
hi,
You can put the tree menu directly in the layout or in a separate menu
elements and include them in a specific place on your layout.
If you want to highlight active link in your menu, you can do the
following:
// menu
..link to
contacts views
..link to
contacts views
...
// in Posts/index.ctp
// in Posts/view.ctp
..
$this->set('active','posts');
If you want to dynamically add or modify the sidebar, use and expand the
view blocks

Dynamic menu content in layout
What I'm trying to do is to put two dynamic navigation menus in my CakePHP layout (default.ctp). The main menu should have multiple levels (with a dropdown functionality). The secondary menu is the one that shows the dropdown content of the main menu in a left sidebar. I've read the CakePHP documentation but I'm confused how to fit those menus in the layout. I know that you have 4 different parts in a view layer (as documented in http://book.cakephp.org/2.0/en/views.html): - views - elements - layouts - helpers But with the knowledge I have right now, I think none of this parts can be used to fill my needs. A navigation menu is a part that you only load ONES in a layout, so it isn't an element or a helper. So what's the best practice... - ... where to create the menu tree? - ... where / how to echo it in the layout file? Can anybody clearify my issue?

Re: missing debug menu
This is the DebugKit plugin, see here: https://github.com/cakephp/debug_kit
You may already have it in your plugins folder so maybe you just need to
update bootstrap, see the instructions on the link above

RE: missing debug menu
I think you are referring to the Debug Kit?
You have to have the DebugKit in your Plugin folder then load it in your
bootstrap file.
Config/bootstrap.php:
CakePlugin::load('DebugKit');

Building a tree menu with nested lists containing links
I am using the tree behavior to create a side-wide category structure that should be displayed as a explorer-style tree menu and/or suckerfish dropdowns. Model, controller and view are created according to the cookbook: http://book.cakephp.org/2.0/en/core-libraries/behaviors/tree.html Everything works fine BUT: If I build the menu via generateTreeList the result is a flat list with links: Home Subcategory I cannot turn his into a tree/drop-down menu with DOM manipulation because the category hierarchy is not reflected in the HTML structure. To do so, I would need the tree built with nested lists. So I tried HTMLHelper::nestedList instead. As a result, I get the tree with nested lists but unfortunately without links to the categories. Now I only see two solutions to my problem: 1. Use "findThreaded" on the category table and write my own recursive function to build the tree. This would take some time because I am not a experienced programmer. On the other hand, I think if CakePHP has a tree behavior it should enable me to easily accomplish this common task. 2. Add the missing links to the category name when a new category is saved. E.g. category name form data "Home" is saved to the database as "Home". Then I could use HTMLHelper::nestedList for tree output. I really would appreciate if somebody could help me with this.

Dropdown list menu
I'm developing a small web app for scanning parcels coming in to a warehouse.

In the Carriers table i got id, name. 1, Fedex 2, DHL 3, UPS etc. I want the dropdownlist to show the name. When choosing a name a new popup should open going to http://localhost:/Postlog/parcels/scan/ How can I make a dropdown list doing this? It does'nt matter if the popup opens when choosing the name from the list or by pressing a button after. -- Like Us on FaceBook https://www.facebook.com/CakePHP Find us on Twitter http://twitter.com/CakePHP --- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "CakePHP" group.

It's similar to colour management in that regard. Even sending files to the server via FTP can be problematic. You didn't mention which OS you're using; if it's Windows I can't help much.

To see what your existing DB is configured as, log into MySQL and type: SHOW FULL COLUMNS FROM your_table; Note what the Collation is for the column with the text you're seeing problems with. Also, if you import data into MySQL, always place this at the top of the file: SET NAMES 'utf8'; SET CHARACTER SET 'utf8'; Next, check Cake. It uses UTF-8 by default. Check that the App.encoding in app/core.php is correct. If you can, check that your webserver is behaving properly. In Apache: AddDefaultCharset utf-8 Check the response headers for the page. There are many ways to do this. Firebug's Net panel, for example. You should see: Content-Typetext/html; charset=UTF-8 In your layouts, include this in the head section: echo $this->Html->charset(); This should create: View source to be sure. -- Like Us on FaceBook https://www.facebook.com/CakePHP Find us on Twitter http://twitter.com/CakePHP --- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "CakePHP" group.

Re: Listing menu items from database to layout file
Thank you Tim, again, worked great :) Really helpful community here :)
lowpass:
Actually, I did, and it has problems with my non-english characters, it
doesn't display them.. Maybe server configuration? I'm using EasyPHP as my
server.

Re: Listing menu items from database to layout file
Try writing a plain PHP script (not Cake) that fetches the records and
prints them to the browser. That might help to narrow down where the
problem lies.
As for using divs like that, it's not very good use of HTML.

Re: Listing menu items from database to layout file
Hi Tristan,
To add class names, just alter your $menu array as follows:
$menu = array(
'options' => array('class' => 'menuitems'),
'items' => array(
array('title' => 'Hirek', 'url' => array('controller' => 'posts',
'action' => 'index'), 'options' => array('class' => 'button1')),
array('title' => 'Tutorialok', 'url' => array('controller' =>
'posts', 'action' => 'tutorials'), 'options' => array('class' => 'button2')
),
array('title' => 'Munkaim', 'url' => array('controller' => 'posts',
'action' => 'jobs'), 'options' => array('class' => 'button3')),
array('title' => 'Kapcsolat', 'url' => array('controller' =>
'posts', 'action' => 'contact'), 'options' => array('class' => 'button4'))
));
I'm not sure how to fix the issue with non-english characters sorry.
Cheers,
Tim

Re: Listing menu items from database to layout file
Hey there lowpass,
Thanks for this full-fledged explanation, it helped me understand how
CakePHP works, and i finally am able to use it for (at this time) basic
things, on my own :)
About the character thing:
After all I managed to make my menu with the helper that Tim mentioned
above, but I have a few problems with it, maybe you could help me out?
So.. First thing. I rewrote the helper, 'cause, by defaullt, it renders
menus in unordered lists, but i like to do it in divs, like in the plain
HTML code i put in the first post. So now it renders this:
stuff
stuff
stuff
My 'calling' of this rendering is made up like this:
$menu = array(
'options' => array('class' => 'menuitems'),
'items' => array(
array('title' => 'Hirek', 'url' => array('controller' => 'posts', 'action'
=> 'index')),
array('title' => 'Tutorialok', 'url' => array('controller' => 'posts',
'action' => 'tutorials')),
array('title' => 'Munkaim', 'url' => array('controller' => 'posts',
'action' => 'jobs')),
array('title' => 'Kapcsolat', 'url' => array('controller' => 'posts',
'action' => 'contact'))
));
It works very well, but I have the following problem: If i write "Munkáim"
instead of "Munkaim" (its the á, a hungarian character) it simply doesn't
renders it. It created the div, but it's empty, like this:
Hirek
Tutorialok
Kapcsolat
As you can see, the third item is empty, because i used a non-english
character. Any way to solve this?
Also, i'd like to add class names to these menu items (each individual
item), because of the 960 Grid system i'm using. Tim, maybe you know how to
do it?
Thanks a lot folks,
Tristan

Re: Listing menu items from database to layout file
Are you certain that the characters have been inserted into the database correctly? Check that the character encoding is correct for the database and the individual tables. You may also need to check that the browser is correctly rendering the page. Look in the browser's View menu, or check with Firebug, etc. On Thu, Dec 6, 2012 at 4:05 PM, Trisztán Thar wrote: > One more thing: > I have used this helper, but i have discovered that it won't list menu items > that have a special character in them.

Re: Listing menu items from database to layout file
You seem to have a few of the concepts wrong here. I'll try to explain.
> foreach ($menu as $Menu):
This is where the error is happening. The problem is that, in the
controller action, you created a view variable named $Menu. But your
code here is looking for an array named $menu. You have it backwards.
Think of a foreach like this:
foreach($data as $item) means: for each element in $data array, create
a copy and name it $item for use within this block of code.
I generally name my view variables $data because the model name will
be a key inside, eg. $data['Menu']['whatever']. (Just don't mix it up
with $this->request->data!)
The next problem is that you're trying to create a menu that includes
a link to the code to create the menu:
> array('controller' => 'Menu', 'action' => 'loadmenu')
You mentioned that you're doing the blog tutorial so I presume that
your menu should be links to all blog posts. If that's the case, you
don't need a Menu model or MenusController. Instead, you'll want to
find('list') or find('all') from Post to get all of the titles and IDs
of each Post. With that you can create a basic menu. Here's a really
basic example that may help explain MVC, taken from my own code, but
simplified a bit.
layout:
echo $this->element('Posts/menu');
app/View/Elements/Posts/menu.ctp:
$archive = $this->requestAction('/posts/archive');
// die(debug($archive));
Html->link(
$item['Post']['title'],
array(
'controller' => 'Posts',
'action' => 'view',
'id' => $item['Post['id']
),
array('title' => $item['Post']['title'])
);
?>
Uncomment the die(debug()) lines separately to get an understanding of
how the array of data is returned, and how foreach works.
PostsController:
public function archive()
{
$archive = Cache::read('PostArchive');
if (empty($archive))
{
$archive = $this->Post->fetchArchive();
Cache::write('PostArchive', $archive);
}
return $archive;
}
Notice that you don't need to set() a view variable here but instead
return it. This is because we're calling this controller function with
requestAction().
Also, if caching is enabled, we don't need to call the model (and thus
the database) to get the archive.
Post model:
public function fetchArchive()
{
return $this->find(
'all',
array(
'fields' => array(
'Post.id',
'Post.created',
'Post.title'
),
'order' => array(
'Post.created' => 'DESC'
)
)
);
}
Once again, this is pretty basic. It can be improved upon but it
should get you on your way.

Re: Listing menu items from database to layout file
One more thing: I have used this helper, but i have discovered that it won't list menu items that have a special character in them. You know, I'm from Hungary, we have characters like: é, í, á, ű, ő, ú etc.. So if a menu item contains any non-english character, it treats it like if it wouldn't be there. Any idea how to solve this?

Thank you Tim, worked like a charm.
I'll definately read the info you've given me about MVC, and hopefully will
understand it in no time :)
Have a nice day!

Re: Listing menu items from database to layout file
Hi Tristan,
You should implement this as a Helper. I recommend this one as an example
(I've used it myself): http://nooclear.com/content/cakephp-2x-menuhelper
Place this class in a file called MenuHelper.php in your /app/Views/Helpers
directory. Then add the following to /app/Controllers/AppController.php:
class AppController extends Controller{
public $helpers = array('Menu');
}
Then inside of your views, whether it be your default layout, an individual
view, or a nested view, add this:
$menu = array(
'options' => array('class' => 'nav-style'),
'items' => array(
array('title' => 'List Users', 'url' => array('controller' =>
'users', 'action' => 'index')),
array('title' => 'Add User','url' => array('controller' =>
'users', 'action' => 'add')),
)
);
print $this->Menu->render($menu);
I recommend reading this for a better understanding of MVC
(http://book.cakephp.org/2.0/en/cakephp-overview/understanding-model-view-controller.html).
It might be worthwhile searching for some other MVC tutorials as well until
you're comfortable with your understanding of the concept.
Cheers,
Tim

Listing menu items from database to layout file
Hello
Please bear with my noobness, I am super new to CakePHP, and don't really
understand it yet.
So, I was messing around with default.ctp, of course to make a layout for
my site. I followed the Blog Tutorial, and I am planning to build my site
on that.
I'd like to add a navigation menu, which would look like this in plain HTML:
First Page
Second Page
Third Page
Fourth Page
I saw that the layout file uses lots of CakePHP's built in function to add
divs and links, and I'd like to make this myself as well.
I have the following code in my default.ctp file:
foreach ($menu as $Menu):
echo $this->Html->div('grid_12 menubar', $this->Html->div('menuitems
grid_3', $this->Html->link($menu['Menu']['item'], array('controller' =>
'Menu', 'action' => 'loadmenu';
endforeach;
unset ($menu);
If i'm right, this would list my 4 menu items from my MySQL database. (I
didn't find a way to add multiple child items in the div() 'helper(?)',
this is why I have choosen to do it this way)
So, from my experiences of the Blog tutorial I made a model named Menu.php:
class Menu extends AppMenu{
}
And i made a controller for that (MenuController.php)
(I actually don't understand a bit of this whole Model and Controller
thing, even thought I read the CookBook and documentation.. guess it'll
come in time)
class MenuController extends AppController{
public function loadmenu(){
$this->set('Menu', $this->Menu->find('all'));
}
}
Ok so i got all this, let's check how it works. Going to
localhost/website/posts i find this:
*Notice* (8): Undefined variable: Menu [*APP\View\Layouts\default.ctp*, line
*44*]
*Warning* (2): Invalid argument supplied for foreach()
[*APP\View\Layouts\default.ctp*, line *44*]
If i understand right, it does not pass the variable Menu from MenuController
to the layout file.
Could someone please explain me how to do this, and why it didn't work? Also,
if you've got some free time, and could explain me (the simplest way) how
models and controller work (with views), i'd be really thankful.
Thanks a lot folks,
Tristan

Re: How to save and retrieve the status of a dropdown menu between views?

You would put that code inside the jquery ready() block. ie:
$(function()
{
// here
});
The code runs through each link inside your menu, comparing the href
value of the link against the page location. When it finds a match it
removes the "close" class on the parent UL (which is set by default)
and breaks from the loop.

You could set a cookie from js and then also read it to find which UL
to remove the class from. But it's overkill. The code I provided is
much simpler.
But this doesn't have anything to do with Cake, in any case.

Re: How to save and retrieve the status of a dropdown menu between views?
thanks for your answer but I dont get it, I was thinking about to write a
parameter with Session->write to read it beforeRender and fill my view
depending on that parameter.
Is there a way to have that functionality just with Js?

Re: How to save and retrieve the status of a dropdown menu between views?
Rather than store the state between requests, you could use some js to
open it if necessary.
$('#mws-navigation a').each(function()
{
if ($(this).attr('href') == location.href)
{
$(this).closest('ul').toggleClass('closed');
return false;
}
});

How to save and retrieve the status of a dropdown menu between views?
Hi, I'm almost finishing my first cake app so I'm fixing some UI issues.
Straight to the point: I have a sidebar menu with a dropdown submenu, the
folding state is defined by the css class "closed" so my question is how
can I save that status to persist between views? Now when I navigate to
another view the class resets to closed.
this is my View (rendered from my sidebar element):
Html->link('Clients', '/clients',
array('class' => 'mws-i-24 i-group'))?>
Html->link('Transfers', '/transfers',
array('class' => 'mws-i-24 i-power'))?>
Html->link('Hits', '/hits',
array('class' => 'mws-i-24 i-alarm-bell-2'))?>
Html->link('Admin', '#',
array('class' => 'mws-i-24 i-cog')); ?>
**
Html->link('Users',
'/allUsers'); ?>
Html->link('Groups',
'/allGroups'); ?>
Html->link('Permissions',
'/permissions'); ?>
This is the Js that toggles the submenu when the user click on the parent
tag:
$("div#mws-navigation ul li a, div#mws-navigation ul li span")
.bind('click', function(event) {
if($(this).next('ul').size() !== 0) {
$(this).next('ul').slideToggle('fast', function() {
$(this).toggleClass('closed');
});
event.preventDefault();
}
});
Thanks for your help, I really appreciate it in advance.

Re: Nested Menu in Cake 2.x
you can use Tree Behavior to properly nested menu items, then use
Model::find('threaded'); and you will get nested array, then just
recursively go through all array and make html output with ul and li.
Then use css or jQuery for nice user display (Mootools, etc..)

I would create two elements, menu.ctp and login_form.ctp, and load
either based on whether the person is logged in.
if ($this->Session->read('Auth.User'))
{
echo $this->element('menu');
}
else
{
echo $this->element('Users/login_form');

Re: How to embebedd flash menu buttons on my site?
Seo is less of a concern with flash.
If you need to Target mobile devices then requiring flash is bad.
If your having issue loading xml/images/content into flash look at setting
the base param with $this->Html->url('/');

Re: How to embebedd flash menu buttons on my site?
When you say flash menu buttons, do you mean Adobe Flash or really flashy graphical buttons? If they are Adobe Flash I would consider if using them at all is a good idea. There is a very really chance that the links within Adobe Flash buttons may not be indexable (search engines will not be able to follow them), accessible (less abled people will have trouble using your menu) and will not work on iOS (apple do not allow flash on their devices).

Re: How to embebedd flash menu buttons on my site?
Once you understand how to src files in webroot all you need to is place the file and ref with you object/embed mark up. Use firebug or such to check that files are found.

after reading the doc blocs and test case - can you please clarify
what documentation you are expecting that you can't find? What have
you tried and what happened?
Alternatively you may find it's easier to just write your own loop.

Menu helper indicating active item and parents?
Is there anyone who can give me advise on which menu helper to use in
this case?
I need to generate an nested tree menu which indicates (adds
class="active") the current li AND all of its parents.
I tried to do this with
http://bakery.cakephp.org/articles/AD7six/2008/01/24/tree-helper-1
but when adding
if (some logic) {
$tree->addItemAttribute('class', 'active');
}
as described in the documentation it seem to add it only to the first
li and not to another one.
I'm thinking of implementing
https://github.com/AD7six/mi/blob/master/views/helpers/menu.php
but because of the lack of documentation it's not clear to me: how to
implement this, if it's necessary to use the whole 'mi'-plugin, and if
it can do what I need?
Does anyone have some experience on this who could help me out?
Regards,
Lucky1968

Re: Best practice output a Dynamic menu
you can define a protected variable $showMenu = true in AppController, and for those controllers who don't need menu, set this vairable to false and in beforeRender method check this variable to output or not.

Re: Best practice output a Dynamic menu
such components may get their data automatically that's what some are for, after all :) even a helper may use data passed down form the controller/component automatically. at least in 2.0 - with $_View being officially available now.

Re: Best practice output a Dynamic menu
;) That was what I thought about helpers yes.. Helper => will be used to generate the menu You would suggest to pull the menu + links fra database in app_controller beforerender, might work fine not using component for this. As I do not need to get the menues on every page, how would you suggest to only use the menu database retrival when needed? using if this params controller= controller ? or something like that? or do you know of a better way ?

Re: Best practice output a Dynamic menu
helpers should not get data directly, and I remember cakephp doesn't suggest get data in components neither( i cant' find the refer), why not get menu data in AppController's beforeRender method?

Re: Best practice output a Dynamic menu
Hi. I am storing my menues and links(tree behavior) in database. I am using several themes for the system, and hardcoding menues manuallly foreach theme is not an option. I have no problem outputting the menues and links with a component and helper in my themes, but i am simply wodering about the best practice to do this? Example, get menues and links from db in component, generate menu output with helper. Or should i do all this in the helper?

Re: Best practice output a Dynamic menu
why consider components and helpers? do you store your menu structures in database? why not just treat it as a data and output it directly in layout?

Best practice output a Dynamic menu
Hi all! I am looking for a couple of suggestions. I am currently working on a tree menu part of my app, where administrators can create menues, add links to the menues and move the links up and down in the tree. Now, I am looking how to output this menu with links on the frontend. Any suggestions on how I should proceed in this? Currently, I am getting my menues and links in a component, I am initializing the "getmenues" function in component from app_controller.php. And in my views, I call a helper to build the menu ul li li /ul Do I need to use a component for this task? Or can I just include everything in the helper? the database calls I mean? I have noe experience with helpers and components from before, so please be gentle with me ;) Thanks for any and all help on this issue!!

Re: how to use this Menu Helper
http://www.flipflops.org)
* @package app
* @subpackage app.views.helpers
* @version 1.0
* @lastmodified 2009-09-29
*
* This helper is designed to work with the data arrays returned by
the Tree behaviour or $model->find('threaded');
* More specifically it is designed to generate menus composed of
nested ULs for use in CMS systems where all the URLs are pretty:
* - naviagtion menus (usually at the top of the page)
* - context menus (usually found at the side) and showing the links
in the current branch
* - sitemaps
*
* Overview (A bit of history)
*
* The helper is designed to deal with navigation / page structures
organised in simple /parent/child/grand-child like structures
* for instance:
*
* /home
* /about
* /about/company-history
* /about/company-history/gallery
* /about/ethos
* /about/vacancies
* /news
* /news/2009/jan
* /news/2009/feb
* /news/2009/mar
* /contact
* (etc.)
*
* ---
* URLs are generated in the model or controller not in the view /
helper
* ---
* In the system from which this is taken, I create a full slug for
each page on $model->save();
* Some of the pages are actual pages of text and others are
palceholders for content in other models
* but they allow you do things like control the content of left /
right columns, set default meta tags etc.
* The purpose being to create really easy site structures with nice
urls, the
* In the example above /home, /about etc. are all from a single model
'Article' which is my master model
* /news however is a placeholder for the 'News' model and /contact
for the 'Contact' model
*
*
*
* Required Fields
* --
* title / name (defaults to 'title')
* page url (defaults to 'slug_url' e.g. /about/ethos)
*
* Optional Fields
* --
* title_for_navigation
* redirect_url
* redirect_target
*
* Example data
* --
* [Article] => Array
(
[name] => Find out about us
[slug_url] => /about-us
[title_for_navigation] => About Us
[redirect_url] =>
[redirect_target] =>
[lft] => 15
[id] => 105
[rght] => 24
[parent_id] =>
)
[children] => Array
(
[0] => Array
(
[Article] => Array
(
[name] => Philosophy
[slug_url] => /about-us/philosophy
[title_for_navigation] =>
[redirect_url] =>
[redirect_target] =>
[lft] => 16
[id] => 111
[rght] => 21
[parent_id] => 105
)
*
*
*
*
* Usage:
*
* Include the helper in your controller as usual.
*
* The helper operates in 2 modes 'tree' (which is default) and
'context'
* 'tree' will produce a whole list of nested Uls - can be used to
generate top level navigation (works well with things like suckerfish)
* 'context' will only produce nested ULs for the current branch
*
* Using the example above if you were on the /about/ethos page and
you wanted the navigation fragment in the sidebar you would use
context
* /about
* /about/company-history
* /about/company-history/gallery
* /about/ethos
* /about/vacancies
*
* In a view / element to generate complete menu
* echo $menu->setup($menu_data, array('selected' => $this->here));
*
* In a view / element to generate a context menu from the same data,
set the class of the parent UL
* echo $menu->setup($menu_data, array('selected' => $this->here,
'type' => 'context', 'menuClass' => 'context-menu'));
*
*
* In a view / element to generate a sitemap from different data, let
the helper know to use the 'Sitemap' model rather than the default
'Article' model and set the parent UL class.
* $sitemap = new MenuHelper();
* echo $sitemap->setup($data, array('modelName' => 'Sitemap',
'menuClass' => 'sitemap'));
*
* Version Details
*
* 1.0
* + Initial release.

Re: how to use tree behavior to build multilevel menu category
in index method use $this->Category->find('threaded'); instead of
$this->Category->generatetreelist();
what you will get returned look here:
http://book.cakephp.org/2.0/en/models/retrieving-your-data.html#find-threaded
Then you need recursively check every category if has any children and
display it :)

database design help - menu, menu items and controllers within
Hello, I am having some issues setting up the database for my base CMS to use for all clients. My thoughts were to have the following: blocks table - this is simply the html, title, description etc for each page (i.e. home, about us) menus table - simply contains the menu name (i.e. top navigation or footer links etc) menu_items table - this would contain the menu_id, the parent_id (from this same table), the title of the link in the menu and then there would be a controller field which would contain the name of the controller i.e. blocks and then the next field to contain the actual block id such as the home id for the link. This is how I can see that I can easily add additional controllers such as galleries, pdfs, blogs etc and they could be within the menus quite easily by adding in contoller => pdfs, controller_id => 3 (the pdf id or whatever) Below is the SQL I have come up with, I wanted to get some advise to see if there was an easy way or better way to do this. Ideally I want to be able to generate the list of controllers on the add/edit field and then their assigning ids when adding menu_items. Thankyou CREATE TABLE IF NOT EXISTS `blocks` ( `id` int(11) NOT NULL AUTO_INCREMENT, `name` varchar(150) NOT NULL, `title` varchar(150) DEFAULT NULL, `show_title` tinyint(1) DEFAULT '1', `content` longtext, `metadescription` text, `metakeywords` text, `stepback` longtext, `timestamp` timestamp NOT NULL DEFAULT CURRENT_TIMESTAMP ON UPDATE CURRENT_TIMESTAMP, PRIMARY KEY (`id`) ) ENGINE=InnoDB DEFAULT CHARSET=latin1; # Data exporting was unselected. # Dumping structure for table siteadmin.menus CREATE TABLE IF NOT EXISTS `menus` ( `id` int(11) NOT NULL AUTO_INCREMENT, `name` varchar(255) DEFAULT NULL, PRIMARY KEY (`id`) ) ENGINE=InnoDB DEFAULT CHARSET=latin1; # Data exporting was unselected. # Dumping structure for table siteadmin.menu_items CREATE TABLE IF NOT EXISTS `menu_items` ( `id` int(11) NOT NULL AUTO_INCREMENT, `menu_id` int(11) DEFAULT NULL, `parent_id` int(11) DEFAULT NULL, `name` varchar(255) DEFAULT NULL, `controller` varchar(255) DEFAULT NULL, `controller_id` int(11) DEFAULT NULL, `published` tinyint(1) DEFAULT '0', PRIMARY KEY (`id`) ) ENGINE=InnoDB DEFAULT CHARSET=latin1; == -- Our newest site for the community: CakePHP Video Tutorials http://tv.cakephp.org Check out the new CakePHP Questions site http://ask.cakephp.org and help others with their CakePHP related questions.

Administrator Menu with ACL
Hello, I want to ask if someone know a package to create a dynamic administrator menu based on ACL settings.

How can I customise sorting order for dropdown field (menu) for foreign-key values
My add view looks like this:
create('Practice');
echo $form->input('region_id');
echo $form->input('name');
echo $form->end('save Practise');
?>
region table has the following columns:
->id(primary key)
->region
practice table has the following columns:
->id
->region_id
->name
the region_id dropdown menu displays a menu list of all the regions in
the database. They are automatically sorted using the region
id(primary key) field.
How can I change it so that it sorts by region instead of id?
Please help. Thanks in advance.

Re: Select menu population based on previous selection
Hi, Did you consider using page reloads? Everybody seems to take the - painful - ajax route, but you might not need to do that. This means that every time you enter a value in a select box you submit the page and the next select box is filled using a simple find. As soon as you submit all fields you can start processing the data.

Re: Select menu population based on previous selection
In CakePHP 1.2 I use $ajax->observeField() to call an ajax function in my controller which then updates a div in the view with the next select box. I'm not sure if this is supported the same way in 1.3, so I found this: http://bakery.cakephp.org/articles/Calderoy/2011/01/18/how_to_create_an_observefield_equivalent_in_the_new_jshelper On 7 February 2011 19:41, OldWest wrote: > I am currently trying to work out populating select boxes based on the > previous select box.
