Question

Cakephp Pagination rendering issue. I am using cakephp 2.0.6. When i try to render a page from other action its fine. But when i try to go to next page the problem starts

I have the following function

   public function admin_index() 
   {
       //Function listing 
   }

The same function needed for all type of users(support,employee etc).
So I used the setAction method as follows

public function support_index() 
   {
        $this->setAction('admin_index');
        $this->render('admin_index');
   }

And my Pagination code is as follows :

    echo $this->Paginator->prev('< ' . __('previous'), array(), null, array('class' => 'prev disabled'));

    echo $this->Paginator->numbers(array('separator' => ''));

    echo $this->Paginator->next(__('next') . ' >', array(), null, array('class' => 'next disabled'));

But when I try to go next page the URL as follows

http://www.example.com/support/users/admin_index/page:2
http://www.example.com/employee/users/admin_index/page:2

But the following output needs to come :

http://www.example.com/support/users/index/page:2
http://www.example.com/employee/users/index/page:2

The Problem is $this->setAction(‘admin_index’); i think.. any one helps appreciated

Answer 1

I made the changes in the following file lib/Cake/Controller/Controller.php

The changes made in setAction method it works well now. especially the problem is in 2.0.6

public function setAction($action) {
    $this->request->params['action'] = $action; //Commented this Line 
    $this->view = $action; //Commented this Line


    $this->request->action = $action; // Added this Line
    $args = func_get_args();
    unset($args[0]);
    return call_user_func_array(array(&$this, $action), $args);

}
