Interesting you should ask that, because I was just about to do the same thing ;) However, when I tried linking another model to sfGuardUser (a 1:n relationship, like "a user has many posts"), I got a doctrine error when building the models (don't remember the wording exactly, but the syntax error occurred exactly when adding the foreign key to the table). I assumed the problem is that doctrine tries to make a "reciprocal" relation between the models, thus attempting to change the sfGuardUser model. Since it was just a simple test application, I worked around the problem by relating the Post model to the Profile model... but since it seems the best practice is to link things directly to sfGuarUser, I'll probably run into this problem in a real-life situation soon.
Did anyone experience the same situation? And if so, how could it be "fixed" so I don't have to link all my stuff to the Profile class? :) Thanks and kind regards, Campezzi On May 19, 9:01 pm, "David Ashwood" <da...@inspiredthinking.co.uk> wrote: > Use sfGuard as the root for all that need to reference the user. > The profile is just one of them.
