I'm using cakephp 2.3, and trying to use a table other than users(editors) for user authentication. Using topics here, stackoverflow and the documentation for reference, i've almost got it, just hung up on the login. If I try to access anything, the app does display the login, however even with correct credentials, it looks like it loads but doesn't move past the login view. No error is displayed. And for some reason, any user(Editor in my case) doesn't have an encrypted password in the DB. I've been at this for a day and a half and don't know what to do at this point. The table fields are the standard user fields just in a table named editors. and the login view is standard. The code for the login/logout I used from the documenation. Any suggestions? I would use Users, but another Cake 1.3 app is using that table and i'm not sure how difficult it would be to use the same table.(I tried but the user passwords weren't encrypted there either..so it might be how i'm using auth?
