How to Refresh Auth data after update - cakephp

Question

i m working classifieds controller
this is code
public function create_add(){
if(!empty($this->data))
{
if($this->Classified->save($this->data)){
$this->User->save(array('id'=>$this->Auth->User('id'),'pending_attempts'=>$this->Auth->User('pending_attempts')-1));
$data = $this->User->read();
$this->Auth->login($data);
}
}
}
i want to updating the 'pending_attempts' column in user table , for example:
pending_attempts = 10;
Every time run this code, pending_attempts will be 10 - 1, and always resulting in 9.
After login only time code work and update the database , if i again run that code create_add() it always show pending_attempts =9
Problem is that how to refresh Auth data ?

Answer 1

You are no updating the 'pending_attempts' , for example:
pending_attempts = 10;
Every time you run this code, pending_attempts will be 10 - 1, and always resulting in 9.
'pending_attempts'=>$this->Auth->User('pending_attempts')-1)
Looking at you code, i think you are trying to update user Auth session, but i think it's no working:
$this->Auth->login($data);

I tried many of the tricks to refresh in my appplication i have done in last year.But nothing helped me.So why i can give you an alternative.Fetch data from table at first with user_id which is in session.And then use it as data for operation.....Happy coding bro...

Your method should looks like:
public function create_add()
{
if(!empty($this->data))
{
if($this->Classified->save($this->data))
{
$user_data = $this->User->find(null, $this->Auth->User('id'));
$user_data['User']['pending_attempts'] -= 1;
$this->User->save($user_data);
$this->Auth->login($user_data);
}
}
}
I checked it and it is working. Kindly ask if it is not working for you.

I got the solution of my question , that code working fine for me
public function create_add()
{
if(!empty($this->data))
{
if($this->Classified->save($this->data))
{
$user_data = $this->User->find('first',array('fields' => array('id','pending_attempts'),'conditions'=>array('User.id'=>$this->Auth->User('id'))));
$this->data['User']['id'] = $this->Auth->User('id');
$this->data['User']['pending_attempts']= $user_data['User']['pending_attempts']-1;
$this->User->save($this->data);
}
}
}
