Hi, folks. I'm a cake newbie. Does cake give an easy way of expressing qualities to relationships? For example, if my my_obj has many your_obj, but some of those relationships are "foo" and some are "bar"... |

teknoid: gotcha, well, thanks for the help! |

Aug 8th 2008, 11:11 |
teknoid |
troutoil: ah, it does for this case... but there is more to it then just the variable name |
| # |
Aug 8th 2008, 11:09 |

teknoid: the above bin works automagically... and the models field type is just INT... |

Yeah its myself and another php developer, we have a two week timeframe. |
| # |
Aug 8th 2008, 11:07 |
teknoid |
tbranyen: and that's a good choice :) |

teknoid: Regardless of what my intentions are to make a reusable cms, i'm definitely using cake on this custom project. |

"Migrate from 1.1 to 1.2" the manager says. "What could go wrong" he says :P |
| # |
Aug 8th 2008, 11:06 |
tbranyen |
That was rhetorical :-p |

Aug 8th 2008, 11:06 |
teknoid |
tbranyen: you should know it better, since you are closer to the project... |
| # |
Aug 8th 2008, 11:06 |
tbranyen |
Probably because our team leader told them it was better to have a custom made one. |

Ahah, found out what's throwing the oh so useful "Error: Database table cake_app_models for model AppModel was not found" message - one of the 'uses' vars in a model is including models that 1.2 doesn't like the look of, so at least I know where to look now. Cheers for all the help folks, have an excellent weekend :) |

I'm currently employed in a $50k project that requires us to write a custom cms... why isn't that company just using one out there? |
| # |
Aug 8th 2008, 11:05 |
tbranyen |
If thats the case, why isn't everyone using one of them? |
| # |
Aug 8th 2008, 11:05 |
teknoid |
tbranyen: considering the number of available, mature cms products out there, i'd say you are in for a long haul :) |
| # |
Aug 8th 2008, 11:03 |
tbranyen |
even if the client has no idea what that means |
| # |
Aug 8th 2008, 11:03 |
teknoid |
troutoil: there's gotta be something else going, $form->input() is not going to match some set variable to build a select list... it's likely looking at the model's field type |
| # |
Aug 8th 2008, 11:03 |
tbranyen |
its a name to associate with |
| # |
Aug 8th 2008, 11:03 |
tbranyen |
That looks a lot better than simply saying custom .net CMS |
| # |
Aug 8th 2008, 11:03 |
tbranyen |
I used to work with a firm that had a custom .net CMS built on netTiers |

So long as it suits their needs |

Do people really care what framework their commercial software uses? |
| # |
Aug 8th 2008, 11:00 |
tbranyen |
Especially if I advertise it as being built on cakePHP. It would be nice to boast a claim of being the first commercial cakePHP CMS. |
| # |
Aug 8th 2008, 11:00 |
troutoil |
teknoid: it's certainly not a big deal to add the options, but I figured since the form helper is looking for an existing variable, it'd be a little more elegant... |

Is cakephp under the bsd license? |
| # |
Aug 8th 2008, 10:59 |
tbranyen |
Might as well see what others have done with it. |
| # |
Aug 8th 2008, 10:59 |
tbranyen |
Oh, I see. I was just interested in what cakePHP had to offer. |
| # |
Aug 8th 2008, 10:59 |
teknoid |
tbranyen: well, that's what i mean you should look at any other cms that would compete with you, what difference does it make it if it's cakephp or not? |

what is the better acl plugin manager out there? |
| # |
Aug 8th 2008, 10:58 |
tbranyen |
Therefore making it commercial. |
| # |
Aug 8th 2008, 10:58 |
troutoil |
teknoid: yep... |
| # |
Aug 8th 2008, 10:58 |
tbranyen |
Which is why I'm pretty sure, I'm going to be basing it off cakePHP, but I don't intend on making it open source. |
| # |
Aug 8th 2008, 10:58 |
troutoil |
yeah... |

I just recently finished a study on open source PHP CMS's for my current company. Open source CMS's are horrible for custom branding/coding, so my only real option is to create one from scratch. |
