I made a mistake in my copy and paste...
app_controller before filter:
function beforeFilter() {
$this->set('SiteRoot', '/bla/');
//default menu to nothing
$this->set('MenuSelected', '0');
}
post_controller before filter
function beforeFilter() {
parent::beforeFilter();
$this->set('MenuSelected', '1');
}
The parent::beforeFilter() worked perfect, thank you guys!
