Ok. Thanks. But this only works if I specify exactly which columns to
save in my controller using:
$user = $this->User->save($this->data, true, array('email',
'password', 'password_confirm', 'first_name', 'last_name')
Notice I left out 'email_confirm' in the list even though that field
appears in the view. I would rather use this:
$user = $this->User->save($this->data)
However, SQL throws the following error:
SQL Error: 1054: Unknown column 'User.email_confirm' in 'where clause'
Cake wants an 'email_confirm' column in the Users table. This is key
to what I'm trying to understand. I don't have a 'password_confirm'
column EITHER. But for some reason, Cake does not mind. Is there a
built in exception for a field called 'password_confirm'?
