I found my issue. What I meant was I was trying to get the 'username' to
show up in a view that is not a view from the actual plugin.
My mistake was simple, In my hasmany model relationship, I didn't have
correct 'className', just had the controller name 'User' but was missing
the reference to the plugin.
Incorrectly had this:
public $belongsTo = array(
'User' => array(
'className' => 'User',
'foreignKey' => 'user_id',
'conditions' => '',
'fields' => '',
'order' => ''
)
Needed this:
public $belongsTo = array(
'User' => array(
'className' => 'Users.User',
'foreignKey' => 'user_id',
'conditions' => '',
'fields' => '',
'order' => ''
)
Thanks again for your help.
