# May 26th 2021, 12:08 erwane README sounds good.
# May 26th 2021, 12:06 admad There aren't any docs so you'll have to see the existing implementations for reference :)
# May 26th 2021, 12:05 erwane will try with typesense
# May 26th 2021, 12:04 erwane Very nice, thanks

# May 26th 2021, 11:55 erwane maybe it's hard to do something "generic"
# May 26th 2021, 11:53 erwane Hi, there is no Core "Http Api" Datasource ?
# May 26th 2021, 11:11 neon1024 Is there an easier way to ensure all redirects are https? Or do I have to add `'_ssl' => true` to all my url arrays? Is that what the HttpsEnforcerMiddleware is for?
# May 26th 2021, 10:38 tomrwaller Awesome! Thanks - that does the trick! Quick question - It works using the 'templateVars' array key just fine - My only thought is it makes the code look a little untidy - is there a way to combine this into my helper template so I can get away with just using the 'help' keyword?
# May 26th 2021, 10:29 kevin.pfeifer you need to set custom template variables inside the `templateVars` array key when outputting the form See https://book.cakephp.org/3/en/views/helpers/form.html#adding-additional-template-variables-to-templates
# May 26th 2021, 10:26 tomrwaller 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>"```
# May 26th 2021, 10:03 tomrwaller The help text is what I'm trying to get to display.
# May 26th 2021, 10:01 tomrwaller Ignore the 'help' entry - I was just playing with it. :)

# May 26th 2021, 10:01 tomrwaller 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.
# May 26th 2021, 09:49 dereuromark Adminlte etc are the most famous
# May 26th 2021, 09:48 dereuromark What's the problem? There are tons of open source ones out there if u google :)
# May 26th 2021, 09:33 tomrwaller I did :)
# May 26th 2021, 09:02 dereuromark Did u check the awesome list? ;)
# May 26th 2021, 08:49 tomrwaller Bonus points if it's Bootstrap 5 :) But at this point I'd take anything!
# May 26th 2021, 08:48 tomrwaller 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.
# May 25th 2021, 23:23 ljolley Yea this gets the job done and how I've done it in the past.
# May 25th 2021, 23:21 ndm Depends on what exactly you mean by "_better_", that's very likely coupled to your specific application logic.
# May 25th 2021, 23:17 ljolley (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.
# May 25th 2021, 23:15 ljolley 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.
# May 25th 2021, 23:10 ljolley 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.
