Actually, I think you mean Chris is the man. Then (by even further
extension) Nate would be the main, cuz Chris bugged him on IM for help with
this.
But, I know what you mean. I've found these group posts time and time again,
but they never really helped. Telling me you can Override something is one
thing. But how am I supposed to know what goes into it? I guess the answer
is that I'm supposed to go digging through the code.
But a better answer would be something like:
Override paginate() to return a model similar to find('all') and
paginateCount() to return something like find('count')...
But with that said, I looked through the API and it was just daunting.
Chris' solution seems rather slim to me.
So these are the questions I have for someone more knowledgeable:
1. It seems that the paginate() function could consist of only a
find('all') and pageCount() by find('count')?
2. If so, what handles all the paging stuff?
3. Or is this one of those magic things again where just overriding
paginate() and pageCount() magically make stuff work?
