If you structure your data array correctly you could use one saveAll
command on the instructor table and the 3 models would save. So your
save code would be reduced to:
if (!empty($this->data)) {
if ($this->User->Instructor->saveAll($this->data,
array('validate'=>'first'))) {
$this->Session->setFlash('User saved');
$this->redirect(array('action'=>'view', $this->User->id));
} else {
$this->Session->setFlash('Usernot saved');
}
}
To do this, you need to get your head around how to use Cake's
automagic to retrieve your HABTM subjects and display them as a
multiple select or checkbox list in your form so the resulting data
structure ends up looking something like
Array
(
[User] => Array
(
[username] => MrInstructor
[password] => cddb06c93c72f34eb9408610529a34645c29c55d
[group_id] => 2
)
[Instructor] => Array
(
[name] => Jimmy Bob
[email] => [email protected]
[phone] => 1112223333
[city] => Beverly Hills
[zip_code] => 90210
[states] => 5
[website] => www.jimmybobschool.com
[description] => Jimmy Box is an instructor.
[user_id] => 1
[id] => 1
)
[Subject] => Array
(
[Subject] => Array
(
[0] => 15 // id for hitting
[1] => 21 // id for pitching
)
)
)
