Create elements for your forms and include them into each view as needed.
admin_add.ctp:
<h2>Add Post</h2>
...
<?= $this->element('posts/form') ?>
admin_edit.ctp:
<h2>Edit Post</h2>
...
<?= $this->element('posts/form') ?>
elements/posts/form.ctp:
switch ($this->params['action'])
{
case 'admin_edit':
echo $form->create('Post', array('action' => 'edit', 'admin' =>
1));
echo $form->hidden('Post.id');
break;
case 'admin_add':
default:
echo $form->create('Post', array('action' => 'add', 'admin' =>
1));
}
...
