Hi everyone I'm pretty new to cakephp or the model view controller and oop programming in general.
However, i see the big advantages of cakephp and i really like it, it just makes fun. Howevery, i still have some questions about cakephp or MVC in general: If i want to make a website...let's say, it contains a welcome page, a blog, some news and a section with details about other websites/ products of me. And some of the common pages like a contact form. How many controllers would you create? -NewsController -BlogController -ProductsController -WebsitesController And then? How should i handle the contactForm and the welcome page? Should i create a "main"-Controller that handles sites/actions that doesn't require an own controller? I mean, is ridiculous to create a contactController just for an index and sendEmail action and a welcomeController for showing 1 page, isn't it? And the other question is about an admin section/backend. I have seen the nice function "admin_routing". So i could make an admin_add/delete/edit/index function for my news, blog, products and website controllers. Howevery, i would like to have a "default" or "home/welcome" page in the adminpanel that shows some general information like "all the blog posts/websites/products/news i posted in the last week" and how many users are actually on the page. How do i handle these cases? PS. Sorry for my english, if you can speak german i would prefer :) Greetings --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "CakePHP" group.
