Yeah, I sort of assumed you had two different sets of models. One general, and one user-specific. > This should be placed in a controller, right?

Yes, it should be in the controller, and yes, it can be executed even if the current model doesn't use it, since the model's $useDbConfig will be set to the default database, and therefore unaffected. > Now let me explain my current problem: > Let's say that i, for example, have two user-specific tables, with the > prefix "prefix_", called "prefix_table1" and "prefix_table2".

You can either set $uses = null in your controller, and instantiate your models manually *after* you do the reconnect; or, you can setup an extra copy of all your tables with no prefixes. > I tried to create those tables just to see if that could make it work, > but then the tables without prefixes are used, instead of the ones with > prefixes. Right, that'll happen. You have to call reconnect *before* actually using the user-specific models. > Then i removed those again and tried to add this in every model using > user-specific tables: > var $useTable = false; > I did this to stop cake from reading tables until i did the reconnect, > but that only gave me a bunch of notices, warnings and errors. Yeah, you don't want to do that. Personally, I'd just create the default (empty) tables, and reconnect before using the model. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Cake PHP" group.
