find() internally, and it didn't have your conditions. You want to use
one or the other. What you've done is assign the result of find() to
$songs, then set the *view* var $songs to the result of paginate().
If you'd prefer to paginate the results, you can add conditions to
your $paginate class var (no, I have no idea why someone decided to
use the same name for that) but you can't set it in this case because
it's a class var and the user_id in the session would be meaningless.
So, what you'd have to do is leave the conditions out of the array
definition and assign it within your methods.
class SongsController extends UsersController
{
var $name = 'Songs';
var $paginate = array(
'limit' => ...,
'order' => array(
...
),
'fields' => array(
...
),
'recursive' => ...
);
function index()
{
$user_id = $this->Session->read('Auth.User.id');
if (!$user_id)
{
// redirect
}
/* add condition to the class $paginate array
*/
$this->paginate['conditions'] = array(
'Song.user_id' => $user_id
);
$this->set('songs', $this->paginate());
}
}
