Hello, I have spent the morning figuring out how to display a list of
blog categories on every page of my site. I think my logic is correct
but I am applying it wrong. I have a posts table that has a $belongsTo
relations ship with my category table.
My Model:
class Post extends AppModel {
var $name = 'post';
var $belongsTo = array ('Category' => array(
'className' => 'Category',
'foreignKey'=>'category_id')
);
}
In My Post Controler:
function getcats($num = 5)
{
$getcats = $this->Post->Category->findAll('Category.title
ASC', $num);
if (isset($this->params['requested']))
{
return $getcats;
}
$this->set('getcats', $getcats);
}
In my view_cat Element:
<?php
$getcats = $this->requestAction('/catagories/getcats/5');
?>
<?php foreach ($getcats as $categories): ?>
<?php echo($categories['Category']['title']);?>,
<?php endforeach; ?>
in my layout:
<?php echo $this->renderElement('view_cat'); ?>
