SELECT COUNT(*) AS `count` FROM `meta_tags` AS `MetaTag` Post posts left LEFT JOIN `posts` AS `Post` ON (`MetaTag`.`post_id` = `Post`.`id`) WHERE `MetaTag`.`id` = 1601 AND `Post`.`user_id` = 1103 On Sun, Dec 12, 2010 at 12:34 AM, cricket <[email protected]> wrote: > On Sat, Dec 11, 2010 at 2:27 PM, psybear83 <[email protected]> wrote: >> Hey everybody >> >> class MetaTag extends AppModel { >> var $name = 'MetaTag'; >> var $displayField = 'name'; >> >> function allowsAdd(&$user, $options) { >> $this->find('count', array('joins' => array('Post'), >> 'conditions' => array('MetaTag.id' => $this->id()))); >> } >> } >> >> This simple JOIN gives me a wrong SQL command: >> >> SELECT COUNT(*) AS `count` FROM `meta_tags` AS `MetaTag` Post LEFT >> JOIN `posts` AS `Post` ON (`MetaTag`.`post_id` = `Post`.`id`) WHERE >> `MetaTag`.`id` = 1601 >> >> ...while the correct one would look like this: >> >> SELECT COUNT(*) AS `count` FROM `meta_tags` AS `MetaTag` LEFT JOIN >> `posts` AS `Post` ON (`MetaTag`.`post_id` = `Post`.`id`) WHERE >> `MetaTag`.`id` = 1601 >> >> Where does this "Post" word come from??
