Oleander: so how are you going to decide what post type to use? |
# |
Sep 21st 2011, 15:23 |
Oleander |
becuase the user isnt selecting the post type |

if i have 2 distict controllers and 2 models for 2 tables of same db,is it possible to have 1 single webpage which gives results from both controllers? |
# |

ADmad |
whats wrong with the standard way to putting a select box for the post types on the form |
# |
Sep 21st 2011, 15:22 |
ADmad |
and what parameter are you gonna use to retrieve it dynamically? |
# |
Sep 21st 2011, 15:21 |
Oleander |
well i didnt want to have it in form. i wanted to retrieve it dynamically, im new to cake and thought perhaps this is how you do it. if not i can put it in form. |
# |
Sep 21st 2011, 15:21 |
ADmad |
sounds liek you have a Post belongsTo PostType so why don't you have the post_type_id in form itself? |
# |
Sep 21st 2011, 15:20 |
ADmad |
Oleander: well i dont know your models, but yes |
# |
Sep 21st 2011, 15:19 |
Oleander |
Admad: that would mean i need to query PostType before save to find the id of the type i want to save Post as, yes? |
# |
Sep 21st 2011, 15:17 |
ADmad |
Oleander: if $data is the var you are passing to model->save() you can set $data['Foo']['post_type_id'] = x |
# |

Oleander |
when saving a post, i need to set post_type_id, do i only have two options. 1. set post_type_id in form as hidden value, or get find post_type_id in model before save? Is it possible for cake when saving to find the id $this->data['Post'Type]['name'] = 'foo' ? |

I might have had a typo in the model variable then |
# |
Sep 21st 2011, 15:14 |

ah, nice, it does support it |

Actually it was just easier to alter sequence name |
# |
Sep 21st 2011, 15:09 |
jbaanus |
Model has primary key (ID usually) and PostgreSQL has sequence for it. When it is automatically created, the the sequence name is usually table_id_seq. I have a differently named sequence but Cake does not recognise it |
# |
Sep 21st 2011, 15:08 |
ADmad |
jbaanus: you mean primary key? |
# |
Sep 21st 2011, 15:06 |
Oleander |
hey |
# |
Sep 21st 2011, 15:04 |

Can I define custom sequence for a Model's key field (PostgreSQL) |

i've asked 4 or 5 questions in here and gotten half of one answer, and been ridiculed 3 times |

section58 - wasn't being facetious - think my question is a valid cake question since i'm asking "how does Cake's autoLinkUrls detect a link" |
# |

/whois <username> will give you the host mask |
# |
Sep 21st 2011, 14:55 |

/ignore <host-mask> |

is there a way to ingore people in this chat? |
# |
Sep 21st 2011, 14:55 |
dogmatic69 |
cake helpers have methods, not functions |
# |
Sep 21st 2011, 14:55 |
daVinciWanaB |
anyway - i appreciate your clarification, Section58 |
# |
Sep 21st 2011, 14:54 |
Section58 |
as the magic in that is regex |
# |
Sep 21st 2011, 14:54 |
daVinciWanaB |
if i wanted to ask a question about a function in a cake helper - would that need to be in #php then? |
# |
Sep 21st 2011, 14:54 |
dogmatic69 |
you asking what the regex does |
# |
Sep 21st 2011, 14:54 |
Section58 |
its not if your asking what it does |
# |
Sep 21st 2011, 14:54 |
daVinciWanaB |
since it's Cake's autoLink code |
# |
Sep 21st 2011, 14:54 |
daVinciWanaB |
it's in the cake helper - thought it could be a cake question |
