I split my tables/models into logical objects ... User: An account to login to a site (id, user_group_id, username, email, password etc.)
User Group: Groups of users which can be applied access rights (id, name) Person: An actual person (id, user_id, first_name, last_name, full_name, dob, gender_id, religion_id etc.) Profile: Changes from site to site, but is likely to store site options a brief description/summary written by the user and possibly contact details they want to advertise to other users (id, user_id, profile_text, email, website, telephone) These are all individual objects, not all people will have a user account, not all users will have a profile etc. (not all users of this group have created a profile) --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "CakePHP" group.
