I think this really speaks to the idea that as new user of CakePHP the conventions have to be well known to you, if you do not know them well you will not realize you have decided to go against them and so will not be aware of seeking the compensation strategies for this decision that you need to know. It also speaks to a need to have the conventions higher in the book and also more forefront in other places then buried a tier down in the initial TOC for the book http://book.cakephp.org/view/22/cakephp-conventions -- (the old fart) the advice is free, the lack of crankiness will cost you - its a fine line between a real question and an idiot http://blog.samdevore.com/archives/2007/03/05/when-open-source-bugs-me/ http://blog.samdevore.com/cakephp-pages/my-cake-wont-bake/ http://blog.samdevore.com/cakephp-pages/i-cant-bake/ --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "CakePHP" group.
