I’ve just started reading up on CakePHP and everything is going pretty good so far, though I have a query on the best way to do the following:
I have a “User” model and a “UsersController” controller.
I currently have a “home” page which is controlled by the home_controller.php (obviously). The home page contains a registration for for a user.
The Question
When the form is posted from the home page, I need to access the User model (from the home controller).
What is the best practice for this task?
If I understand the situation correctly, I would post the form to some function in users controller. Then this function would save the data, or log in, or whatever. Finally make redirect back to home for example.
