Hello Brian,
Thank you for your reply. Yes, that could be an alternative but it
would require lots and lots of changes. I am not talking about only
one single "select", but all the places in the application that refers
to a "User" (there are many of them). Anyway I am curious to know
whether I can foo "find('list')" to gather its values from the final
array (returned by "afterFind") instead of the database.
Best,
~IF.
