I've tried just doing that but I get the error: Undefined property:
LessonsController::$User
I expected that to result in an error because I'm writing this code in
the lessons_controller not the users_controller.
Here's the complete function that I'm trying to add to the
controller...
function add() {
$this->set('authorArray', $this->User->generateList(null, null, null,
'{n}.User.user_id', '{n}.User.username'));
if (!empty($this->data)) {
if ($this->Lesson->save($this->data)) {
$this->flash('Your post has been
saved.','/lessons/titlebrowse');
}
}
}
I don't understand what you meant by adding "$users = array('Lessons',
'Users');" and no... I don't have that in my controller anywhere.
?
