# Jul 2nd 2017, 04:36 smarty24 Reading is important but I am not that type. I get bored after 10 minutes because I am not a faster reader... One of the reasons I dive into coding mostly to avoid bordom
# Jul 2nd 2017, 04:19 spencdev I can't explain to you how much time I would have saved if I just actually read them
# Jul 2nd 2017, 04:18 spencdev Read the docs...
# Jul 2nd 2017, 04:17 savant Do your best!
# Jul 2nd 2017, 04:16 savant Don’t give up?
# Jul 2nd 2017, 04:16 smarty24 How are you. I am new to CakePHP or would say haven't started yet although it's on my to do list. Is there any advice I can get?
# Jul 2nd 2017, 03:42 savant hi
# Jul 2nd 2017, 03:41 smarty24 Hi I am new here.
# Jul 2nd 2017, 02:26 ra7bi BTW , Thanks a lot Savant ,
# Jul 2nd 2017, 02:25 ra7bi but if this option is exist , i dont want to duplicate the code
# Jul 2nd 2017, 02:25 savant there are composer packages that have them as a dependency you can call for
# Jul 2nd 2017, 02:25 ra7bi im hardcoding the list in some file in my project
# Jul 2nd 2017, 02:25 savant also doesnt really change that you’re hardcoding the list somewhere
# Jul 2nd 2017, 02:25 ra7bi Yah correct
# Jul 2nd 2017, 02:24 savant and that list would get out of date
# Jul 2nd 2017, 02:24 savant that would mean they’d be hardcoded into the cake core
# Jul 2nd 2017, 02:24 ra7bi Ah i thought there is an Form element for displaying kind of things
# Jul 2nd 2017, 02:23 savant put it in the database and issue a find
# Jul 2nd 2017, 02:23 ra7bi without hardcoding countries as array in controller and then call it from View
# Jul 2nd 2017, 02:22 ra7bi is there any way to get countries list in the view ?
# Jul 2nd 2017, 02:22 ra7bi i'v one more question
# Jul 2nd 2017, 02:20 ra7bi Tks
# Jul 2nd 2017, 02:20 ra7bi Sure , i'll check it out
# Jul 2nd 2017, 02:19 savant there is an example there for changing the fields for a find(‘list’)
# Jul 2nd 2017, 02:19 savant https://book.cakephp.org/3.0/en/orm/retrieving-data-and-resultsets.html#finding-key-value-pairs
# Jul 2nd 2017, 02:18 ra7bi this is my query
# Jul 2nd 2017, 02:18 ra7bi ``` $diseases = $this->Participants->Diseases->find('list', ['limit' => 200]); ```
# Jul 2nd 2017, 02:17 savant ok
# Jul 2nd 2017, 02:17 savant gist.github.com
# Jul 2nd 2017, 02:17 ra7bi i will check my find
# Jul 2nd 2017, 02:17 savant show me the controller code you are using?
# Jul 2nd 2017, 02:17 ra7bi Oh wait pls
# Jul 2nd 2017, 02:17 ra7bi Can you please explain more with my example
# Jul 2nd 2017, 02:17 savant you need to do it at the find level
# Jul 2nd 2017, 02:17 savant you cant do it from the view
# Jul 2nd 2017, 02:17 ra7bi Yep how i can change the fields from the view
# Jul 2nd 2017, 02:17 savant but you can change the find fields to `id`, `eng_name` if you wish
# Jul 2nd 2017, 02:16 savant by default we pull the primaryKey and the displayField
# Jul 2nd 2017, 02:16 savant you can change the fields if you wish
# Jul 2nd 2017, 02:16 ra7bi name for Arabic
# Jul 2nd 2017, 02:16 ra7bi eng_name is for english language
