Hi community I'm using plugin CakePdf with the library tcpdf and when generating the pdf it shows me the following error |

But yes - indeed many products can be “alternatives”, “related”, “similar” etc (type) to many other products :) |

I’m not saying I don’t agree - but I need more explanation :D |

@neon1024 what would the benefit in your opinion? It would have still have 2 different product_id columns and some type and source |
# |

Thanks @rochasmarcelo. The field is in an association. I will try that in a while. |
# |

@rogerpro I think you could add a virtual field for it and add to allowed search fields |
# |

neon1024 |
I would guess that @spriz use-case is probably more complex |
# |
Apr 8th 2019, 15:48 |
neon1024 |
Which would be `product_variants` or similar. Like I said, normalize into association |
# |
Apr 8th 2019, 15:48 |
rogerpro |
I guess he needs many alternatives for each product |
# |
Apr 8th 2019, 15:39 |
neon1024 |
Or normalizing the differences to an association? |
# |

@spriz Why not a self-referencing table? |
# |
Apr 8th 2019, 15:36 |
neon1024 |
I want to see if the string appears twice |
# |
Apr 8th 2019, 15:35 |
neon1024 |
Anyone know if there is a method of like `assertResponseContains($string, $numberOfInstances)` |
# |
Apr 8th 2019, 15:35 |
neon1024 |
So the test suite provides `assertResponseContains` |
# |

rogerpro |
It makes sense, @spriz |

I realise I need different aliases for the properties, but that’s no problemo :slightly_smiling_face: |

I need to start marking “Products” as alternatives to other Products - and the obvious thing imo is a `products_products` `BelongsToMany` assoc with a source and a target fk - am I on the road to something really stupid? |

How to allow the user to sort by a calculated MAX() field with pagination in Cake 2? |

you can make a sippet and reuse that, see how it is done in my geo plugin for example. |

I also just found a suggestion to use HAVING, but I don't use that specific calculated field for grouping. not sure it'll work this way. |
# |
Apr 8th 2019, 12:50 |

yup |

hey, guys! In my model query I'm trying to perform a WHERE-search on a calculated field, which ends with 'unknown column'. What is suggested way of doing this? The only reference I found in documentation is by using collection filter. Is that the way to go? |

@dereuromark Yes thank you for your help. This plugin already helps me a lot. I am just getting into cake 3 and would like to learn as much as possible |
# |
Apr 8th 2019, 12:28 |
dereuromark |
well, the plugin takes care of some stuff for you, including what fields can be patched etc. so best to either use it or at least look into what it does. |

I mean...after calling `patchEntity()` everything looks fine. I got my object that contains an array with a single tag that existed already. It correctly shows `new = false`. This `Tag` contains an object `Taggable` with the correct data as well. It even says `new = true`. But when saving, the `Taggable` object contains an empty id and the `created` and `modified` date is not set |

@dereuromark No, I am trying to fully understand it first. So currently I am not using any plugin. Probably I will switch back later to your plugin again. Right now it is just about understanding |
# |
Apr 8th 2019, 12:10 |

Are you using the Tags plugin? |

correct entity is not used when saving. Any ideas? |
