# Feb 3rd 2018, 22:09 ahmed_bodi each user would be a root node
# Feb 3rd 2018, 22:09 ahmed_bodi for now yes, in the future nope
# Feb 3rd 2018, 22:08 hmic there is only one root node in the table, isn't it? :p
# Feb 3rd 2018, 22:07 ahmed_bodi :P
# Feb 3rd 2018, 22:07 ahmed_bodi haha, would do if i wasnt allowing user signups
# Feb 3rd 2018, 22:05 hmic just dont insert the root through the ORM :p
# Feb 3rd 2018, 22:05 ahmed_bodi @hmic the default buildrules for my model, its checking existsIn for the parent_id but its set to null as it should for the root node, safe to remove?
# Feb 3rd 2018, 22:00 greenjam94 Setting the display field works perfectly, thanks for the help (and for answering my earlier question)
# Feb 3rd 2018, 21:59 hmic additionally, you can change the find('list') call in the controller and provide the valueField parameter to its options array, to specify which field to use
# Feb 3rd 2018, 21:59 greenjam94 ah! I'll try that
# Feb 3rd 2018, 21:58 hmic you can change it there
# Feb 3rd 2018, 21:58 hmic greenjam94: it populates the display field from the table
# Feb 3rd 2018, 21:58 greenjam94 ahmed_bodi: I need to clarify, this is a select control, not a regular text input. I need to change the name of each select option, it's pulling the wrong column from the entity
# Feb 3rd 2018, 21:57 hmic jason001, no worries
# Feb 3rd 2018, 21:56 ahmed_bodi no worries :)
# Feb 3rd 2018, 21:56 ahmed_bodi wanted to avoid coding it up until i knew the structure worked for what i wanted
# Feb 3rd 2018, 21:56 jason001 so should I just copy-paste my apology from above? thank you hmic
# Feb 3rd 2018, 21:56 hmic there is a method to do so (regenerate from either lft/rgt or parent_id)
# Feb 3rd 2018, 21:56 hmic hint: it will be enough to populate the parent_id and let cake fix the tree
# Feb 3rd 2018, 21:55 hmic ahmed_bodi, you dont need to manually populate them. you should read the docs on how the tree works
# Feb 3rd 2018, 21:55 hmic jason001, yes, you do, usually... which makes that not so much a cake question :P
# Feb 3rd 2018, 21:55 ahmed_bodi @hmic i'm trying to get the tree table going with some sample data and im confused as to what to put for left and right any clues?
# Feb 3rd 2018, 21:54 jason001 @hmic - there are alot of parameters at play... one of which is my webhost. I have a few things to look at, thank you for your time
# Feb 3rd 2018, 21:54 ahmed_bodi instead of false put what you want
# Feb 3rd 2018, 21:54 ahmed_bodi <?= $this->Form->input('first_name', ['class' => 'form-control', 'placeholder' => 'First Name', 'label' => false]); ?>
# Feb 3rd 2018, 21:54 hmic greenjam94: add 'label' => 'Name' to the options array
# Feb 3rd 2018, 21:53 ahmed_bodi one sec
# Feb 3rd 2018, 21:53 ahmed_bodi with the label option
# Feb 3rd 2018, 21:53 ahmed_bodi @greenjam94 yes
# Feb 3rd 2018, 21:53 hmic it does work, i'm using a solution of the 5th hit, so you dont need to look further
# Feb 3rd 2018, 21:53 greenjam94 for a select statement, can you set the label of the drop downs? I have the following: ``` echo $this->Form->control('listing_id', ['options' => $listings]); ``` but it's listing options with the labels being "title" which is incorrect, I need it to be "name"
# Feb 3rd 2018, 21:52 hmic - or learn apache and understand how mod_rewrite works better - which is hard!
# Feb 3rd 2018, 21:52 jason001 none of which work.... thank you hmic.
# Feb 3rd 2018, 21:52 hmic you tried one that failed - keep on trying!
# Feb 3rd 2018, 21:52 hmic like 20 different solutions on the first google results page
# Feb 3rd 2018, 21:52 hmic and google still is your friend
# Feb 3rd 2018, 21:52 hmic you were but looking for apache help, not cake really...
# Feb 3rd 2018, 21:51 jason001 again, I apologize
# Feb 3rd 2018, 21:51 jason001 thank you. I'll accept my question was under-googled. but I felt it relevant to still consult cake experts, since 1) cake is sensitive to incorrect .htaccess changes and 2) this is one of the forums cakephp points you to when looking for help
# Feb 3rd 2018, 21:49 hmic http://lmgtfy.com/?q=htaccess+force+https
# Feb 3rd 2018, 21:46 jason001 back to the drawing board!, thank you
