I’m following this ACL tutorial here and I noticed that the aros_acos table contains C-R-U-D column.

If I have a custom admin-only action (which I call admin_dashboard) and would only want the Admin group to view it, how do I go about populating the aros_acos table?

I have tried creating a column in the aros_acos table called “admin_dashboard” and added this code $this->Acl->allow('Admin', 'Event', array('admin_dashboard')); but it doesn’t seem to populate the admin_dashboard in the Admin row with the value of 1.

    The aros_acos table has to be populated either “by hand” (i.e. using sl statement) or using the cake-shell. The tutorial you are referring to seems to be well written, and I have not found it is pretending that function changes the table: try to read it again.

    The statement $this->Acl->allow() is intended to just programatically allow an action which would be otherwise denied by the aros_acos table (or by a previous deny()).

    You may better want to set up routing to map and use admin_ actions (maybe reading in the bakery).
