I have run into this same problem and filed a ticket for it. If I knew how to find tickets I've filed on trac, I would track it down for you and post the number here.
In the meantime, I have written a fairly extensive component + plugin for managing ACLs that I can share witih you, although I didn't feel it was 100% ready for sharing, it might save you a lot of time to implement if I just also give you some documentation about some stuff about it. The upshot is, in order to delete ACOs and AROs, I have created two roots in each of my tables, one called root and the other called deleted. When I delete something, I move it under deleted instead of actually deleting it. Another bug I've found is that you can't "demote" an ACO or ARO into any node that is an ancestor of the node you want to "demote." It refuses to do it. So I created a reparent routine that moves the node in question to deleted first, then back under the target node. Final bug: you can't reparent a node if it has children of it's own. Well, you can, but your table ends up corrupted. So I added logic to prevent reparenting with children through the UI. UPDATE: ok, so I found the bugs on trac: https://trac.cakephp.org/ticket/1232 https://trac.cakephp.org/ticket/1233 https://trac.cakephp.org/ticket/1234 https://trac.cakephp.org/ticket/1235 Please let me know if you want me to share my code with you. I plan to soon put it up as a package people can download from cakeforge. For now, it does require editing two core files, so that's one reason why it's not yet primetime. chris --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Cake PHP" group.
