I'm fairly new to CakePHP and am trying to setup a custom admin area for my app. I realize Cake can create an admin area with scaffolding[1] but I'd like to build something much more customized, and have it accessible from via /admin/, with one app for the public side and another for the admin.
Ideally, the structure would be: www ^- apples (public application here) ^- apples-admin (password-protected control panel) I'm having a hard time figuring out how to set this up using a single Cake core and two apps - one for "apples" and one for "apples-admin". I've read some notes about modding PHP's include path, but that won't be possible in the production environment. The other notes I see about changing CAKE_CORE_INCLUDE_PATH aren't very clear on where I would make that change, and it doesn't appear as though that would get me the app-inside-app structure I'm after. Is what I'm trying to do possible? Am I better off using just a single app for both the public side and admin area?
