# Apr 26th 2019, 18:23 jnguyen ah you know what I lied
# Apr 26th 2019, 18:21 ricksaccous is the association that hard to define without a finder?
# Apr 26th 2019, 18:21 ricksaccous i've gotten it wrong a couple times
# Apr 26th 2019, 18:21 ricksaccous also make sure you have sortWhitelist capitalized correctly and everything
# Apr 26th 2019, 18:20 ricksaccous sounds like a bad idea tbh
# Apr 26th 2019, 18:20 jnguyen take out sortwhitelist and check the request query for the sort and direction values
# Apr 26th 2019, 18:19 jnguyen can I just use order instead?
# Apr 26th 2019, 18:18 jnguyen hm
# Apr 26th 2019, 18:18 ricksaccous lol
# Apr 26th 2019, 18:18 ricksaccous yeah the actual associations
# Apr 26th 2019, 18:18 jnguyen oh you mean the actual associations
# Apr 26th 2019, 18:18 ricksaccous just paste your code
# Apr 26th 2019, 18:18 ricksaccous no that's not what i meant
# Apr 26th 2019, 18:17 jnguyen ?
# Apr 26th 2019, 18:17 jnguyen the pagination component
# Apr 26th 2019, 18:17 ricksaccous it has a conditions option
# Apr 26th 2019, 18:17 ricksaccous without using a finder
# Apr 26th 2019, 18:17 ricksaccous you could use conditions to define the association
# Apr 26th 2019, 18:17 jnguyen bascially to filter out some data
# Apr 26th 2019, 18:16 jnguyen yeah
# Apr 26th 2019, 18:16 ricksaccous are you using a finder because there are conditions?
# Apr 26th 2019, 18:16 jnguyen hmmm
# Apr 26th 2019, 18:16 ricksaccous do a join instead?
# Apr 26th 2019, 18:16 jnguyen is there*
# Apr 26th 2019, 18:16 jnguyen is any work around?
# Apr 26th 2019, 18:15 jnguyen ah ok
# Apr 26th 2019, 18:15 ricksaccous okay yeah i think that's where the problem is
# Apr 26th 2019, 18:15 jnguyen yes
# Apr 26th 2019, 18:15 ricksaccous @jnguyen?
# Apr 26th 2019, 18:14 ricksaccous is the custom finder being used to define an association in this case?
# Apr 26th 2019, 18:12 ricksaccous hmmmm
# Apr 26th 2019, 18:12 ricksaccous there is somewhere in the book about limitations on pagination when using custom finders
# Apr 26th 2019, 18:11 jnguyen ah ok so I can't use sortWhiteList if I use a custom finder?
# Apr 26th 2019, 18:11 ricksaccous yeah that's the limitations of custom finders with pagination
# Apr 26th 2019, 18:10 jnguyen Hey guys, so I have a problem when I use the pagination component , when I use a custom finder I'm not able to sort the data
# Apr 26th 2019, 15:09 hollistergraham123 So right now I set the view var by doing $this->set([‘var’ => $var, ‘_serialize’ => ‘var’]); I am assuming your saying do some sort of getmethod $this->set([‘_serialize’ => array_merge($this->getViewVar(), ‘user’)]);
# Apr 26th 2019, 15:07 admad and it's not a "function", just an array
# Apr 26th 2019, 15:06 admad so merge instead of overwriting
# Apr 26th 2019, 15:05 hollistergraham123 Is there a way to push variables to the _serialize function. I.e. I want to always send back the logged in user data along with whatever the individual controller function sends. I put the serialize function in Appcontroller on the beforeRender event to serialize the user var but it is overriding what got serialize in the controller method.
# Apr 26th 2019, 15:00 dereuromark you can only lose/delete data if you store additional fields in your pivot table. but fair enough :slightly_smiling_face:
# Apr 26th 2019, 14:59 hollistergraham123 Good point
