Question

Following the manual: http://book.cakephp.org/1.2/view/816/counterCache-Cache-your-count

I have this code in my model:

class Ticket extends AppModel {
   var $belongsTo = array(
      'TicketStatus' => array('counterCache' => true)
);

and this from my view/index.ctp:

echo $ticket_count

but it errors out instead of printing the content of that field. I’ve already added ticket_count (INT) to my tickets table. What have I missed?

Thanks

Answer 1

Did you set the $pending variable to be used in the view?

$this->set(compact('pending'));

Then is yout view:

echo $pending['TicketStatus']['ticket_count'];
