Thanks Jelmer but my confusion is that the function you're mentioning
goes into the controller, yet the code I am working with is suppose to
go into the model. When I add the function to the model, how do I
make the controller get the $user_hash value? Specifically, I need to
take the $user_hash value and compare it from the model into the
controller like so
var $feed = array(
'conditions' => array('Thank.rss_hash' => '$user_hash'),
'titleField' => 'Thank.title',
'descField' => 'Thank.title',
'link' => '/thanks',
'orderby' => array('Thank.created' => 'DESC'),
'limit' => 10
);
but alas, it does not work. I get the error on my model of
Parse error: syntax error, unexpected T_VARIABLE in /Applications/MAMP/
htdocs_attractionapp/app/models/thank.php on line 6
Thanks so much for your help but I'm stuck. Right now I am kicking
myself that I didn't migrate to 1.2 before beginning this project! ;)
