i've created a whole workaround for that:
function in app_model:
[code]
public function _setLocales($data,$id){
$languages = Configure::read('app.languages');
$saved=0;
foreach($languages as $key => $lang){
if($key == 'en') continue;
$this->locale=$lang['locale'];
$this->data['locale']=$lang['locale'];
$this->data=$data[$key];
$this->save($this->data);
$saved++;
}
$this->locale=$languages[$this->default_lang]['locale'];
return $saved;
}
[/code]
in admin_add.ctp the form is like that (locale is EN):
[code]
<? echo $form->input("$model.title"); // that will save the title in
English?>
<? foreach($languages as $k=>$l){ if($k=='en') continue; // this will
save titles in all other languages?>
<?=$form->label("Version.$k.$model.title",'title '.up($k))?>
<input type="text" value="<?=$this->data['Version'][$k][$model]
['title']?>" id="Version<?=$k?>EditionTitle" name="data[Version][<?=$k?
>][Edition][title]" />
<? }?>
[/code]
in controller:
$this->{$this->modelClass}->save($data);
$saved=$this->{$this->modelClass}->_setLocales($data['Version'],$this->
{$this->modelClass}->id);
