Thought this might help: ```echo $this->Form->input('field_name', array( 'after'=>'<span class="help-block">This text appears underneath the input.</span></div>'));``` But it produces: ```<input class="form-control" type="text" name="name" after="<span class=andquot;help-blockandquot;>This text appears underneath the input.</span></div>"``` |

The help text is what I'm trying to get to display. |

Ignore the 'help' entry - I was just playing with it. :) |

All I'm trying to achieve is presenting a help text underneath my form controls. I think the helper I am using is causing the examples I've tried not to work. |

Bonus points if it's Bootstrap 5 :) But at this point I'd take anything! |

Hey everyone - I don't suppose anyone has a Bootstrap-enabled FormHelper template they wouldn't mind sharing with me at all? I've been using one over the years that I cobbled together through bits and pieces online but I'm noticing it doesn't provide me any scope to add input help-block text on my forms and I can't for the life of me figure it out. |

Yea this gets the job done and how I've done it in the past. |

Depends on what exactly you mean by "_better_", that's very likely coupled to your specific application logic. |

(I appreciate the help btw - I've been banging my head against this for too long today) |
| # |
May 25th 2021, 23:17 |
ljolley |
can you see a better way of handling this? Basically I have a set of logic that I need to run on every action with simple comparison checks - and if they fail, I redirect to where the user should be. |
| # |
May 25th 2021, 23:15 |
ndm |
Basically, yes. |
| # |

got it. I modified my controller `beforeFilter` to have this: `return parent::beforeFilter($event);` and it appears to be doing what I need it to do. Is that what you meant by "overwritten method makes no use of it"? |
| # |
May 25th 2021, 23:12 |
ndm |
Alternatively, if applicable, you could also set the return value of `$this->redirect()` as the event result. |
| # |
May 25th 2021, 23:11 |
ndm |
Your return value from the parent method will vanish into the void, as your overwritten method makes no use of it. You need to check if `parent::beforeFilter()` returns something, and then return that in your overwritten method. |
| # |

so controller action errors, and redirect doesn't happen. |
| # |
May 25th 2021, 23:09 |
ljolley |
but the controller action is looking for `$session->read('Admin.organization_id')` |
| # |
May 25th 2021, 23:09 |
ljolley |
again. redirect happens if I clear out the controller action |
| # |
May 25th 2021, 23:08 |
ljolley |
is that correct? |
| # |
May 25th 2021, 23:08 |
ljolley |
the code above is sitting in the `beforeFilter` in the `AppController`. It's literally the only thing in there ATM. In the controller, I have this: ```public function beforeFilter(EventInterface $event) { parent::beforeFilter($event); }``` |
| # |
May 25th 2021, 23:06 |
ndm |
Either your `beforeFilter()` is not being invoked (maybe you've overwritten it incorrectly), or the conditions are not being fulfilled, ie the redirect is not being invoked. |
| # |
May 25th 2021, 22:54 |
ljolley |
Looks like if I put the same check in the controller action, it works. but it's much more efficient and easier to maintain if I can have it just run in the `beforeFilter` |
| # |
May 25th 2021, 22:45 |
ljolley |
regardless, I don't need the controller action to run. |
| # |
May 25th 2021, 22:43 |
ljolley |
not sure why. on actions that would fall under the same criteria, the redirect works - but there's no showstoppers in the controller action |
| # |
May 25th 2021, 22:43 |
ljolley |
this runs in the beforeFilter but it executes the controller action before the redirect happens |
| # |
May 25th 2021, 22:41 |
ljolley |
right. |
| # |
May 25th 2021, 22:38 |
greg138 |
`beforeFilter` does run before your controller's action starts. |
| # |
May 25th 2021, 22:34 |
ljolley |
looks like the `return` isn't returning? |
| # |
May 25th 2021, 22:32 |
ljolley |
working through this some more, it looks like the redirect is triggered, but the page errors out in the controller because it's expecting `$session->read('Admin.organization_id');` Is there a way to force the redirect in the `beforeFilter` before it hits controller logic? |
| # |
May 25th 2021, 22:25 |

top redirect under `//REDIRECT TO ORGANIZATION DASHBOARD` works fine. |

== false) { //REDIRECT TO MAIN DASHBOARD $this->Flash->admin_info(__('Not an out action.')); return $this->redirect(['controller'=>'Dashboard','action'=>'main','prefix'=>'Admin']); } }``` |

$this->Flash->admin_info(__('Not an in action.')); return $this->redirect(['controller'=>'Dashboard','action'=>'organization','prefix'=>'Admin']); } } else if(!$session->check('Admin.organization_id')) { //IF UNLOADED $access = $this->Access->actionCheck($this->request->getParam('controller'),$this->request->getParam('action'),'out'); if($access |

``` //CHECK THAT A CONTROLLER AND ACTION IS ACCESSIBLE DEPENDING ON IF THE USER IS LOADED INTO AN ORGANIZATION if($session->check('Admin.organization_id')) { //IF LOADED $access = $this->Access->actionCheck($this->request->getParam('controller'),$this->request->getParam('action'),'in'); if($access == false) { //REDIRECT TO ORGANIZATION DASHBOARD |
