Dave, having a little trouble following your post, but this is how you use the
containable behavior:
$this->User->contain = array('Post.title', 'Post.description', 'Post.Bookmark');
$user = $this->User->findBySlug($slug);
If you're having trouble figuring out which models to contain, try:
$this->User->recursive = 2;
$user = $this->User->findBySlug($slug);
pr($user);
Then take a look at the output and you'll have a better idea of what to contain.

I am trying to get info from 2 models displayed on a third controller. I
think contain Post.title and Post.description but have no idea how to add
that to the controller.
The user hasMany Bookmarks belongsTo Post hasMnay Bookmarks
I have users_controller to display the user/profile
user has the option to bookmark a post
the bookmark saves the user_id and the post_id so in the profile it shows
Related Bookmarks straight from baked but all it shows is the ID , USER_ID
and POST_ID naturally....
What i would like is the Bookmark to get the info from the post also so it
shows the Post.title and Post.description
the view has the standard "foreach ($user['Bookmark'] as $bookmark): but
what i cannot figure out is how do i get the Post info?
The profle function is stright from baked also:
function profile($slug = null)
{
$user = $this->User->findBySlug($slug);
if (!$slug) {
$this->Session->setFlash(__('Invalid User.', true));
$this->redirect(array('action' => 'index'));
}
$this->set('user', $this->User->read(null, $slug));
}
Thanks for any insight.
Dave
