I am fairly new with cakePHP too so I thought I would use a plugin like 
BootstrapCake for setting up Bootstrap. It was a mistake. BootstrapCake is 
not a very good implementation and there are a lot of issues with it. I 
spent a lot of time fixing the templates and troubleshooting what it did 
not include (it didn't include the correct css files, js files, or jquery). 
My best advice is to set it up yourself. I've learned now that it is really 
quite simple to set up Bootstrap on CakePHP and you will learn a lot about 
CakePHP in doing it. Follow a tutorial like this to 
help:
