going further, do we have some form of sync method for belongsToMany where in I can pass an array of ids and those are the ones which will be kept in the join table? |

I cant do everything on my own. |

all fine in 3.x code here. you are free to PR updates though :) |

what sorcery is this one? :) :) https://github.com/dereuromark/cakephp-sandbox/blob/master/plugins/Sandbox/src/Model/Table/SandboxPostsTable.php#L41-L56 cake 2.x syntax? |

hmm, maybe the Tags behavior does this.. : ) ok, then you are probably right. |

Wat! I have had to add the `$this->belongsToMany('Roles')` and `$this->hasMany('UsersRoles')` |
| # |

you only need the manual one if you want to provide custom table and more logic. |

@spriz Shouldnt the HABTM relation auto provide the pivot table? afaik it does |
| # |
Feb 20th 2020, 11:18 |
spriz |
@viraj.khatavkar you will need to have `$this->hasMany('UsersRoles')` in `UsersTable` :) |
| # |
Feb 20th 2020, 11:18 |
dereuromark |
Yeah, in my case with tags the pivot table is setup as "tagged" - thus the idehelper added https://github.com/dereuromark/cakephp-sandbox/blob/master/plugins/Sandbox/src/Model/Table/SandboxPostsTable.php#L10-L11 , so $this->Tagged->updateAll() etc then. |

viraj.khatavkar |
thanks, will see how that goes.. |
| # |
Feb 20th 2020, 11:10 |
dereuromark |
usually $roles->roles_users etc, depending on your relation setup. |
| # |
Feb 20th 2020, 11:09 |
dereuromark |
usually you have access, and If you used IdeHelper to generate the annotations for IDE auto complete and discoverability, you find them even by just typing the first letter :) |

You need to go to the pivot table |

I am having a hard time thinking the syntax here. so would following work? - `$roles->users->updateAll()`? I don’t think so because it will update the users table right? |
| # |
Feb 20th 2020, 11:06 |
dereuromark |
atomic queries always work on any table. |
| # |
Feb 20th 2020, 11:05 |
dereuromark |
sure. |

Is it possible to run `updateAll` on the join table in a belongsToMany association? The join table doesn’t have it’s own model. Eg. I have a `roles` , `users` and `roles_users` tables. I want to bulk update on the `roles_users` table. |

Thanks @challgren - I swapped out the input for the below but I'm still seeing the same behaviour. `echo $this->Form->input('associated_technologies_.ids', array(` `'type' => 'select',` `'multiple'=>'checkbox',` `'options' => $associatedTechnologies` `));` |
| # |
Feb 20th 2020, 10:58 |

I think you need a ‘multiple’ => ‘checkbox’ there for associated_technologies |

If I debug the data on the add the request looks like this: ```[ 'recommendation_group_id' => '1', 'name' => 'e1', 'recommendation' => 'e1', 'rationale' => 'e1', 'primary_technology_id' => '1', 'associated_technologies' => [ '_ids' => '4' ], 'assessments' => [ '_ids' => '2' ]``` I was expecting to see an array in _ids => 4 as I selected 4 entries in the select but it looks like it is giving a count, not a list of ids I |

This is what I have in my add.php. |

Recommendations I have defined two associations to Technologies. Trouble is, the multiselect on add.php doesn't set the Associated Technologies. The Primary Technology does however get set. |

Hey all - would someone mind casting their eyes over my models? Not sure I'm doing this right. I have Technologies and I have Recommendations. They are joined using the recommendations_technologies table. In the recommendation, I have two fields, one is Primary Technology which is a choice of one from the technologies table, and another field Associated Technologies which can be multiple entries from the technology field. So essentially in |

@alexdd55976 do you mean when you run `bin/cake bake ….` |

ah got it |

is there a way to change bake templates so they won't be overwritten during an update |

that it why you include the parent call to make sure the default behavior is still used as well |
