echo $this->Html->link(
'more',
array(
'controller'=>'posts',
'action'=>'view',
$post['Post']['id']
)
);
How can I assign an id and class for this anchor/link? I want to override its css rule.
HTML attributes can be specified in an array as the third parameter.
echo $this->Html->link(
'more',
array(
'controller'=>'posts',
'action'=>'view',
$post['Post']['id']
),
array(
'id' => 'myId',
'class' => 'myClass'
)
);

I need to generate html tags like the below .. to be precise, i need to add a class to the anchor tag added to the list, but i dnt seem to get it to work ..
<li class="myLIPrevclass"></li>
<li>1</li>
<li>2</li>
<li>3</li>
<li>4</li>
<li class="myLINextclass"></li>
The challenge is,
i cant seem to get a class across to the a tag in the next and the previous, i need to solve this
Even if i leave the a tag blank for the previous and next, CakePHP goes ahead and adds a '>' or '<' which in my case I do not need.
This is what I have tried ..
<?php
echo $this->Paginator->prev(
__(''),
array(
'tag' => 'li',
'class' => 'previous',
),
__(''),
array(
'tag' => 'li',
'class' => ''
)
);
echo $this->Paginator->numbers(
array(
'separator' => '',
'tag' => 'li',
'currentClass' => 'active',
'currentTag' => 'a'
)
);
echo $this->Paginator->next(
__(''),
array(
'tag' => 'li',
'class' => 'next',
),
__(''),
array(
'tag' => 'li',
'class' => ''
)
);
?>
For the disabled titles (for both previous and next) even if i pass in null, Cake add a '>' or '<', and I don't want that
I have checked

My Cake Version is 2.4.x
I'll appreciate any pointers or help ..
Thanks
I've created a large form in Cake and set default options via inputDefaults. However I wish to change the default values for an individual field.
In setting the form defaults, I wrote approximately this:
'inputDefaults' => array(
'error' => array(
'attributes' => array(
'wrap' => 'span',
'class' => 'invalidate column-7 offset-3')));
...with the result that all like fields produce the same error message. But, when I attempt to change the defaults for a single field, like so:
echo $this->Form->input('name', array(
'error' => array(
'attributes' => array(
'wrap' => 'span',
'class' => 'invalidate column-10'))));
It doesn't work. The field name produces an error whose class reads column-7 and offset-3, whereas I'd intended column-10.
Anybody know a solution?
$options['inputDefaults'] You can declare a set of default options for input() with the inputDefaults key to customize your default input creation:
echo $this->Form->create('User', array(
'inputDefaults' => array(
'label' => false,
'div' => false
)
));
All inputs created from that point forward would inherit the options declared in inputDefaults. You can override the defaultOptions by declaring the option in the input() call:
echo $this->Form->input('password'); // No div, no label
// has a label element
echo $this->Form->input(
'username',
array('label' => 'Username')
);
I am using cakephp2.0 and want to integrate comment plugin but i got nothing .I was using commentDc plugin but its not working as my requirements.Because i am integreating my users login system with xenforo and commentDc plugin use Auth component so its not working properly.
Please let me know is there any simple comment plugin which i can integrate and modify as my needs.
Thanks,
Here's how I set up comments:
Comments table fields:
id
parent_type, matches the model name of the parent
parent_id
content
user_id, the sender
In any model that you want to be commentable, at this your associations:
public $hasMany = array(
'Comment' => array(
'className' => 'Comment',
'foreignKey' => 'parent_id',
'conditions' => array('Comment.parent_type' => 'question')
)
);
This is a view element:
<?php
/*
set variables:
$data : data of the parent
$type : the type of the parent
*/
if(!isset($name)) {
$name = 0;
}
foreach($data['Comment'] as $comment){
echo '<div class="comment">'.$comment['content'].
' - '.$this->Html->link($comment['User']['username'],array('controller'=>'users','action'=>'view',$comment['User']['id']))
.'</div>';
}
echo $this->Form->create(null, array('url' => '/comments/add','id'=>'qCommentForm'));
echo $this->Form->input('Comment.parent_id', array('type'=>'hidden','value'=>$data[$type]['id']));
echo $this->Form->input('Comment.parent_type', array('type'=>'hidden','value'=>$type));
echo $this->Form->textarea('Comment.content',array('div'=>'false','class'=>'small','label'=>false));
echo $this->Form->submit(__('Leave comment'),array('div'=>'false','class'=>'small'));
echo $this->Form->end();
?>
Then, in the view view for your model, add this (assuming you named the element comment.ctp:
<?php echo $this->element('comment',array('data'=>$modelData,'type'=>'MyModel')) ?>
I have two models, Category and Point. The associations are defined as:
Category hasMany Point
Point belongsTo Category
I would like, when adding Points to my database, to be able to select the category it belongs to from a <select> box, along with the rest of the form data.
Where would I need to set the category list and how could I do it? And how would I produce the select box?
I assume it could be done with
$form->input('categorieslist',array('type'=>'select')); //categorieslist needs
//setting somewhere.
Also to generalize a bit:
In a View with access to the Form helper
<?php
echo $form->input( 'dataKey', array(
'type' => 'select',
'options' => array(
'key1' => 'val1',
'key2' => 'val2',
),
));
?>
The above will render a select input with two options. You can also place an empty option as the first item. Passing a value of true will simply append an empty option with a blank value to the beginning of the options rendered in the HTML.
<?php
echo $form->input( 'dataKey', array(
'type' => 'select',
'options' => array(
'key1' => 'val1',
'key2' => 'val2',
),
'empty' => true,
));
?>
You can pass a string to the 'empty' key to have it display custom text as the key field for the empty option.
<?php
echo $form->input( 'dataKey', array(
'type' => 'select',
'options' => array(
'California' => 'CA',
'Oregon' => 'OR',
),
'empty' => 'choose a state',
));
?>
One last example, you can also pre-select an option with the selected key. The value should match the value of one of the select options, not the key.
<?php
echo $form->input( 'dataKey', array(
'type' => 'select',
'options' => array(
'California' => 'CA',
'Oregon' => 'OR',
),
'empty' => 'choose a state',
'selected' => 'California',
));
?>
From the Model
Model->find( 'list', array( ... )); will always return an array formatted for use with select box options. If you pass data to your view stored in a variable with a lowercase plural model name, that is, ( $this->set( 'categories', $categories );, then you will automagically generate drop downs for related models by using the form helper in the view and passing it a data index of the same model name in singular form suffixed with "_id".
Aziz's answer at #2 is the example of that automagic kicking in.
CakePHP 1.3 Form Helper
CakePHP1.2 Form Helper
In the controller:
$categories = $this->Point->Category->find('list');
$this->set(compact('categories'));
In the view:
$form->input('category_id',array('type'=>'select'));
How do you style the paginator with CSS used in CakePHP?
I can't find a way to attach a CSS class / ID to each of the "span" generated by the default pagination helper in CakePHP.
see: http://www.switchonthecode.com/tutorials/cakephp-part-6-pagination
and https://book.cakephp.org/3/en/views/helpers/paginator.html
What stands out here is that you can pass options to next(), prev(), and numbers()
what you want to do is pass the class option.
e.g.
$paginator->prev(
'<< Previous',
array(
'class' => 'PrevPg'
),
null,
array(
'class' => 'PrevPg DisabledPgLk'
)
).
$paginator->numbers(
array(
'class' => 'numbers'
)
).
$paginator->next(
'Next >>',
array(
'class' => 'NextPg'
),
null,
array(
'class' => 'NextPg DisabledPgLk'
)
),
array(
'style' => 'width: 100%;'
)
