The problem with the ACL documentation is that it isn't explicity said that there are different and distinct modes to run the Auth component in when paired with ACL. If you read all the tutorials they all go over different modes and you eventually figure out that each technique is different... and then you eventually figure out that you don't need to use any of the built-in modes at all and can check on completely custom ACO/ARO trees.
So in my experience there are two hurdles to understanding ACL in CakePHP. The first is understanding ACL as a concept. The next being defining and explaining the different built-in ACL implementations provided by Auth. Since there is so much confusion surrounding ACL and Auth in Cake, perhaps it would be best to just start with a clean slate. On Jul 1, 1:15 pm, John David Anderson <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > 1.
