Auth component only stores values that are in the users table, so you
can grab the user id using $this->Auth->user('id') and then do a find.
Or alternatively you can use $this->Auth->login and once if it
successfully logs in then do a find on the group data and store it in
the session for later use especially if you are going to be accessing
it a lot. But if you only need it in one place I'd just recommend
doing the find when it is needed.On Apr 20, 5:52 pm, capo64 <[email protected]> wrote: > Hi I have a setup with Users and Groups. > > I've been reading user data using this in my views: > $session->read('Auth.User.full_name'); ..etc > > Now I need to access information about the group of the user.
