I'm new on CakePHP and I need to develop a system where the user log in and post a comment, but I don't know how can I get his id and insert in user_id FK from 'comments'. Can someone help me?
add function - ComentarioController.php:
public function add()
{
$comentario = $this->Comentario->newEntity();
if ($this->request->is('post')) {
$comentario = $this->Comentario->patchEntity($comentario, $this->request->data);
if ($this->Comentario->save($comentario)) {
$this->Flash->success(__('Comentário enviado com sucesso'));
return $this->redirect(['action' => 'index']);
} else {
$this->Flash->error(__('Erro no envio do comentário'));
}
}
$this->set(compact('comentario'));
$this->set('_serialize', ['comentario']);
}
add.ctp:
<nav class="large-3 medium-4 columns" id="actions-sidebar">
<ul class="side-nav">
<li class="heading"><?= __('Actions') ?></li>
<li><?= $this->Html->link(__('Listar Comentarios'), ['action' => 'index']) ?></li>
</ul>
</nav>
<div class="comentario form large-9 medium-8 columns content">
<?= $this->Form->create($comentario) ?>
<fieldset>
<legend><?= __('Postar Comentario') ?></legend>
<?php
echo $this->Form->input('comentario');
?>
</fieldset>
<?= $this->Form->button(__('Comentar')) ?>
<?= $this->Form->end() ?>
</div>
If the user is already logged in you can get his id with$this->Auth->user() or AuthComponent::user()
If you have no login System yet try the CakeDC/Users plugin, this should normally work out of the box and helped me a lot of times.

This is Cakephp 3.5, So I have three businesses 1, 2, 3. I have a view to show Estimated Revenue From Fees.
On the index page I have a three column Div
<div class="row">
<div class="col-md-12">
<h2><?= __('Estimated Revenue From Fees') ?></h2>
<div class="row">
<div class="column">
<h4>Business One</h4>
<ul>
<?php foreach ($estimatedRevenueFromCFeesBiz1 as $estimatedRevenueFromFeeBiz1): ?>
<li class="actions">
<?= $this->Html->link(__( h($estimatedRevenueFromFeeBiz1->year), ['action' => 'view', $estimatedRevenueFromFeeBiz1->id]) ?>
</li>
<?php endforeach; ?>
</ul>
</div>
<div class="column">
<h4>Business Two</h4>
<?php foreach ($estimatedRevenueFromFeesNauBiz2 as $estimatedRevenueFromFeeBiz2): ?>
<li class="actions">
<?= $this->Html->link(__( h($estimatedRevenueFromFeeNauBiz2->year), ['action' => 'view', $estimatedRevenueFromFeeBiz2->id]) ?>
</li>
<?php endforeach; ?>
</div>
<div class="column">
<h4>Business Three</h4>
<?php foreach ($estimatedRevenueFromCourseFeesUa as $estimatedRevenueFromCourseFeeUa): ?>
<li class="actions">
<?= $this->Html->link(__( h($estimatedRevenueFromFeeBiz3->year), ['action' => 'view', $estimatedRevenueFromFeeBiz3->id]) ?>
</li>
<?php endforeach; ?>
</div>
</div>
</div>
</div>
In my controller I've set up like this:
public function index()
{
$estimatedRevenueFromFeesBiz1 = $this->EstimatedRevenueFromFeesBiz1->find('list', array( 'conditions' => 'business_id' == 1));
$estimatedRevenueFromFeesBiz2 = $this->EstimatedRevenueFromFeesBiz2->find('list', array( 'conditions' => 'business_id' == 2));
$estimatedRevenueFeesBiz3 = $this->EstimatedRevenueFromFeesBiz3->find('list', array( 'conditions' => 'business_id' == 1));
$this->set(compact('estimatedRevenueFromFeesBiz1', 'estimatedRevenueFromFeesBiz2', 'estimatedRevenueFromFeesBiz3'));
}
I'm getting a Call to a member function find() on boolean
Error in: ROOT\src\Controller\EstimatedRevenueFromCourseFeesController.php, line 26 which is the
$estimatedRevenueFromFeesBiz1 = $this->EstimatedRevenueFromFeesBiz1->find('list', array( 'conditions' => 'business_id' == 1)); line.
I figured it out. I changed the controller back to just calling the whole table:
public function index()
{
$this->paginate = [
'contain' => ['Businesses']
];
$estimatedRevenueFromFees = $this->paginate($this->EstimatedRevenueFromFees);
$this->set(compact('estimatedRevenueFromFees'));
}
I then added a condition into the index.ctp file:
<h4>Business One</h4>
<ul>
<?php foreach ($estimatedRevenueFromFees as $estimatedRevenueFromFee): ?>
<?php if ($estimatedRevenueFromFee['business_id'] == 1): ?>
<li class="actions">
<?= $this->Html->link(__( h($estimatedRevenueFromFee->year), ['action' => 'view', $estimatedRevenueFromFee->id]) ?>
</li>
<?php else: ?>
<?php continue; ?>
<?php endif; ?>
<?php endforeach; ?>
</ul>
Well, based on what you said and on your own answer, it looks like what you were trying to do was this:
public function index() {
$estimatedRevenueFromFeesBiz1 = $this->EstimatedRevenueFromFees->find('list', ['conditions' => ['business_id' == 1]]);
$estimatedRevenueFromFeesBiz2 = $this->EstimatedRevenueFromFees->find('list', ['conditions' => ['business_id' == 2]]);
$estimatedRevenueFeesBiz3 = $this->EstimatedRevenueFromFees->find('list', ['conditions' => ['business_id' == 1]]);
$this->set(compact('estimatedRevenueFromFeesBiz1', 'estimatedRevenueFromFeesBiz2', 'estimatedRevenueFromFeesBiz3'));
}
What changes is your condition (business_id). But you are always querying over the same table (EstimatedRevenueFromFees).
Bare in mind that in your solution you are paginating. So you might end up having every record in a page with a certain business_id, or whatever combination.
<?php
public function add(){
// code
$this->Flash->activateUsers('Thank you for choosing our website', $this->request->getData('email'));
}
?>
then I create a file inside src\Template\Element\Flash\activate_users.ctp with the content below:
<div class="message success">
<?= h($message) , $this->request->getData('email'); ?>
or
<?= h($message) ?> <?=h($this->request->getData('email')) ?>
</div>
But after successfull filling up the form with no error it will just print this:
"Thank you for choosing our website"
In your controller:
$this->Flash->activateUsers('Thank you for choosing our website', [
'params' => [
'email' => $this->request->getData('email'),
]
]);
In your template:
<?= h($message) ?>, <?= h($params['email']) ?>
There's an example of this in the Flash component section of the manual.
I am using cakephp 2.1 and I used login action in UsersController as follows.
public function login() {
if ($this->request->is('post')) {
if ($this->Auth->login()) {
$this->redirect($this->Auth->redirect());
} else {
$this->Session->setFlash('Invalid email or password, try again', 'default/flash_error');
}
}
}
And the login.ctp code is as follows.
<?php echo $this->Form->create('User', array('class' => 'form')); ?>
<div class="control-group">
<label class="control-label" for="inputEmail">Email</label>
<div class="controls">
<?php echo $this -> Form -> text('email', array('id' => 'inputEmail', 'placeholder' => 'Email')); ?>
<?php echo $this -> Form -> error('email', null, array('wrap' => 'span', 'class' => 'help-block')); ?>
</div>
</div>
<div class="control-group">
<label class="control-label" for="inputPassword">Password</label>
<div class="controls">
<?php echo $this -> Form -> password('password', array('id' => 'inputPassword', 'placeholder' => 'Password')); ?>
<?php echo $this -> Form -> error('password', null, array('wrap' => 'span', 'class' => 'help-block')); ?>
</div>
</div>
<div class="control-group">
<div class="controls">
<label class="checkbox">
<input type="checkbox"/>
Remember me </label>
<?php echo $this->Form->button('Sign in', array('type' => 'submit', 'class' => 'btn')); ?>
</div>
</div>
<?php echo $this->Form->end(); ?>
When the form get submitted with email and password, the user is not able to login so its showing an error 'Invalid email or password, try again'. Even I am passing the $this->request->data['User'] into $this->Auth->login() method and debugged $this->Session->read(Auth.User.id). Its giving me null. Please give me a solution for this.
You can try passing $this->request->data into the $this->Auth->login() method. It's not a great way to do it (see this post: CakePHP Auth Component Not logging in when using $this->Auth->login();), but it works for me. Have you debugged $this->Auth->login()?
I have two forms, one to edit room details and the other to edit Extras. Within the forms I pull in a file upload and pass in the id. For some reason one requires a url and the id does not get passed in. Both have the same code. Can see why they are differnt.
Room form
<div class="boxgrid grid_8">
<?php echo $this->element('attachments',array('control'=>'upgrades','id'=>$this->data['AddOn']['id'],'att'=>$this->data['Attachment'])); ?>
</div>
Room upload
Form->create('Room', array('type' => 'file'));?>
<legend><?php __('Upload Room Images'); ?></legend>
<?php
echo $this->Form->input('id');
?>
<input type="hidden" name="data[Attachment][0][model]" value="Room" id="Attachment0Model" />
<input type="hidden" name="data[Attachment][0][group]" value="attachment" id="Attachment0Group" />
<div class="input file required"><input type="file" name="data[Attachment][0][file]" class="" id="Attachment0File" /></div>
<div class="submit"><button>Upload</button></div>
<div>Upload files</div>
Extras Form
<div class="boxgrid grid_8">
<?php echo $this->element('attachments',array('control'=>'upgrades','id'=>$this->data['AddOn']['id'],'att'=>$this->data['Attachment'])); ?>
</div>
Extras Upload
Form->create('Upgrade', array('type' => 'file','url'=>'/admin/upgrades/addfiles','id'=>'AddOnAdminAddfilesForm'));?>
<legend><?php __('Upload Addon Images'); ?></legend>
<?php
echo $this->Form->input('id');
?>
<input type="hidden" name="data[Attachment][0][model]" value="AddOn" id="Attachment0Model" />
<input type="hidden" name="data[Attachment][0][group]" value="attachment" id="Attachment0Group" />
<div class="input file required"><input type="file" name="data[Attachment][0][file]" class="" id="Attachment0File" /></div>
<div class="submit"><button>Upload</button></div>
<div>Upload files</div>
Javascript on each form:
<script type="text/javascript">
$(document).ready(function() {
$("div#uploader").resloader();
$("div#uploader").load('<?=BASE_URL?>/admin/upgrades/addfiles/<?=$this->data['AddOn']['id']?>',null,function(){}).fadeIn();
Upgrades Contoller
function admin_addfiles($id = null) {
$this->layout = null;
if (!$id && empty($this->data)) {
$this->Session->setFlash(__('Invalid Add On', true));
$this->redirect(array('controller' => 'upgrades', 'action' => 'index'));
}
if (!empty($this->data)) {
$this->layout = null;
//if(empty($this->data['AddOn']['id'])){unset($this->data['AddOn']);}
// restructure data for uploader plugin // NEED TO GET RID OF THIS ? MOVE IT
$tmp_file = $this->data['Attachment'][0]['file'];
$tmp_file['extension'] = array_reverse(explode('.', $tmp_file['name']));
$tmp_file['extension'] = $tmp_file['extension'][0];
$tmp_file['title'] = strtolower(substr($tmp_file['name'],0,(0-strlen('.'.$tmp_file['extension']))));
$this->data['Attachment'][0]['alternative'] = ucwords(str_replace('_',' ', $tmp_file['title']));
if ($this->AddOn->saveAll($this->data, array('validate' => 'first'))) {
$id = $this->AddOn->Attachment->getLastInsertID();
$att = $this->AddOn->Attachment->query("SELECT * from attachments WHERE id = ".$id);
$this->set('attachment',$att[0]['attachments']);
} else {
$tmp_file['name'] = 'INVALID FILE TYPE';
}
//debug($this->data);
$this->set('file', $tmp_file);
$this->RequestHandler->renderAs($this, 'ajax');
$this->render('../elements/ajax');
}
if (empty($this->data)) {
$this->data = $this->AddOn->read(null, $id);
}
}
}
Your problem is with the $this->data. Check how it is filled in your controller.
Both views are NOT the same, the main difference is in the create form.
Form->create('Room', array('type' => 'file'));?>
Form->create('Upgrade', array('type' => 'file','url'=>'/admin/upgrades/addfiles','id'=>'AddOnAdminAddfilesForm'));?>
As you can see, one has the first parameter 'Room' and the other one is 'Upgrade', this IS important since you call the id like this
echo $this->Form->input('id');
Cake expects that for the first case you have something like, $this->data['Room']['id'] and the second one $this->data['Upgrade']['id']
If you pass from the controller your id variable like this
$this->set('id',$id);
then in the view you can do somthing like this
<?php
echo $this->Form->input('id', array('value'=>$id, 'type'=>'hidden'));
?>
Hope this solves your answer, if not, please post the $this->data value of each and the part of the controller where you assign $this->data
First all, I am still learning CakePHP and I am close to ZERO using JQuery.
I would like to get help for the following problem I am having:
I have an Articles_Controller a Comments_Controller and Users_Controller
Currently my articles_controller display an article and its comments are loaded on that page
Whoever user inputted the comment will also appear along with his/her image
On each comment I have added a like/dislike button.
Example:
Right now, however, I am only able to display it. What I wanted to accomplish is to use JQuery so that when a user clicks on the Thumbs Up or Thumbs Down image the like and disliked fields are automatically updated in the Db. Also, using JQuery I would like to update those same values in the View. Please my code below and thank you for your help.
articles/view.ctp
<div id="articles_comments">
<p>
Comments
</p>
<?php
foreach($comments as $comment){
?>
<div id="articles_comments_user">
<img src="<?php echo $comment['User']['image']; ?>">
<p>
<?php
$created = $comment['Comment']['created'];
echo $comment['User']['first_name'];
echo " ";
echo $comment['User']['last_name'];
echo " ";
//echo $comment['Comment']['created'];
echo $this->Time->timeAgoInWords(
$comment['Comment']['created'],
array(
'end'=>'+150 years'
)
);
?>
<p>
</div>
<div id="articles_comments_comment">
<table>
<tr>
<td style="width:85%">
<?php echo $comment['Comment']['comment'];?>
</td>
<td style="width:15%;border-left:solid thin teal;">
<div style="float:left;">
<?php echo $comment['Comment']['liked'];?>

<?php
}
?>
<div class="articles_add_comment" id="formUpdateID">

'class' => 'articles_form',
'id' => 'loginForm'
)
);
echo $form->input(
'Comment.comment',
array(
'label' => false,
'type' => 'textarea',
'div' => 'articles_comments_textarea',
'cols' => 90,
'rows' => 3
)
);
?>
</div>
<div style="float:right">

echo $form->end();
?>
</div>
<div class="ajax-save-message">
<?php echo $this->Session->flash(); ?>
</div>
</div>
</div>
Comments is generated from the Articles View action
I was able to fix my problem by the following upon some research and try outs:
View file
<?php foreach $commments as $commment{ ?>
// .............................................................................
<td style="vertical-align:middle;border-left:solid thin teal;padding-left:5px;">
<div class="voteup" style="margin-left:10px;float:left;width:55px;">
<p style="display:none;float:left">
<?php echo $comment['Comment']['id']; ?>
</p>
<div style="float:left" id="article_thumbsUp">
<?php echo $comment['Comment']'liked'];?>
</div>
<img width="20" src="/img/icons/thumb-up-icon.png">
</div>
<div class="votedown" style="float:left;width:55px;">
<p style="display:none;float:left">
<?php echo $comment['Comment']['id']; ?>
</p>
<div style="float:left" id="article_thumbsDown">
<?php echo $comment['Comment']'disliked'];?>
</div>
<img width="20" src="/img/icons/thumb-down-icon.png">
</div>
</td>
// ...............................................................................
<?php } ?>
jQuery I used
<script>
$(document).ready(function(){
$(".voteup").click(function() {
var Id = $(this).children("p").text();
$(this).children("#article_thumbsUp").load("/comments/voteup/"+Id);
});
});
</script>
<script>
$(document).ready(function(){
$(".votedown").click(function() {
var Id = $(this).children("p").text();
$(this).children("#article_thumbsDown").load("/comments/votedown/"+Id);
});
});
</script>
And both of my actions in my comments_controller.php
function voteUp($id = null){
$this->autoRender = false;
if($this->RequestHandler->isAjax()){
$this->Comment->id = $id;
if($this->Comment->saveField('liked',$this->Comment->field('liked')+1)){
}
}
$newValue = $this->Comment->findById($id);
return $newValue['Comment']['liked'];
}
function voteDown($id = null){
$this->autoRender = false;
if($this->RequestHandler->isAjax()){
$this->Comment->id = $id;
if($this->Comment->saveField('disliked',$this->Comment->field('disliked')+1)){
}
}
$newValue = $this->Comment->findById($id);
return $newValue['Comment']['disliked'];
}
This is my entire code in detail and hopefully it can help someone else. This is the way I know how to do, and if you have any better way, I was be glad to know. Thanks a lot. THIS WORKS GREAT. I JUST NEED TO ADD A FEW MORE THINGS TO THIS SYSTEM, SUCH AS ONLY ALLOW REGISTERED USERS TO VOTE AND ONLY ONCE PER COMMENT. THAT WILL INVOLVE CREATING ANOTHER TABLE TO TRACK THAT.
Personally, I would create actions in the Comments_Controller, voteup and votedown. Then, make the thumbs up and thumbs down images link to /comments/voteup/id, etc.
After doing this, use jQuery to prevent a page reload when they're clicked, as such...
<a class="voteup" href="<?php echo $this->base;?>/comments/voteup/<?php echo $comment['Comment']['id'];?>">
<img ... />
</a>
<script>
$(".voteup").click(function(e) {
e.preventDefault();
$.ajax({
url: $(this).attr('href),
success: function() {
// Update vote counter
}
});
});
</script>
I'm sure you can piece together the rest.
