Re: Model Associations Question
In you code you have 'className' => 'Bookings'. Shouldn't that be
'className' = 'Booking' ?
You should also be able to shorten it to - var $belongsTo =
array('Booking') as you are using booking_id as your foreign key.

Re: Model Associations Question
This seems more like an HABTM association. A Booking can have/belong to many BookingDate and vice versa. I wonder, though, if it might be better to drop the BookingDate model and instead use date ranges. Something like date_from & date_to, or arrival & departure, in the bookings table.

Re: Model Associations Question
Sorry, I'll repost this - my database is Bookingdate not Bookingnight Hi Im having some trouble with a model association - yes, I have tried the manual! For each Booking I have, I can have many Bookingnights *Booking* Booking.id *Bookingdate* Bookingdate.id Bookingdate.booking_id In my Booking model, I am able to get all the associated Bookingdates without issue. var $hasMany = array( 'Bookingdate' => array( 'className' => 'Bookingdates', 'foreignKey'=> 'booking_id', ) ); My problem is when I try and go back the other way. I have my Bookingdate.id, and want to get the associated booking.

Re: Simple Model Associations Question
For the scaffolding to show the description instead of the id you need
to add this to your Status/Priority model:
var $displayField = 'description';
and to accomplish what you are wanting with Status/Priority I had to
make it a $belongsTo instead of a $hasOne ($hasOne expects the Status
& Priority tables to have a item_id foreign key.) Seems odd, but
that's the only way I know to make it work, but I have about the same
amount of experience as you ;)
Hope that helps!

Simple Model Associations Question
been using cake a fortnight or so, very impressed, i'm up and running and
it is saving heaps of time :-) ... but looking for a little clarificaton
Say I have a model called "Items" which is my main table of data.
This contains a couple of foreign keys, say "status_id" and "priority_id"
"Statuses" and "Priorities" contain two fields, id and description
(these occasionally get changed and updated, especially by admin users,
which is why they need their own models to update via web form)
I think it is an M:1 relationship from Items to Statuses [or Priorities]
(i.e. Many different Items can have the same status [or priority])
In Items, and this class alone, I say something like below. Is
this the right relationship descriptor? Does "Statuses" need anything?
I've tried reading the docs but i can't quite get my head round it.
var $hasOne = array(
'Status' =>
array('className' => 'Status',
'foreignKey' => 'id',
'conditions' => '',
'fields' => '',
'order' => '',
'dependent' => 'false'
),
If I do this, what can I expect? I was kind of hoping the scaffolding would
replace
the numeric id's in the basic form with the descriptive versions (maybe that
is asking
a little too much!) Is it the case that the data is in the variable on the
page, i just need
