So I have a site where there is a formal registration form, whereafter
the user gets logged in automatically via the Auth->login() method.
It stores data automatically from $this->data in the Session.
However, I have another part of the site that deals with new users
searching for something via an 'Items' Controller. When they search
using a form, they also have to submit an 'email address', along with
what they're searching for. What happens is, if the email doesn't
already exist in the DB, the 'email address' gets automatically
registered, and then the user is automatically logged in. Here's how
I do
ItemsController extends AppController
{
if (!$this->Item->User->is_user($this->data['User']['email']))
{
/* do various steps to put email in the Users
tables ...generate random password, etc
After all that.... */
$this->Auth->Login();
}
}
Now my question, $this->data contains a) their search term, and b)
their email address. When i do $this->Auth->login, will it still
automatically insert the appropriate data in the Session? What about
the password, which I generate in the User model? How do I manually
store that via $this->Auth->login()?
Thanks!
