thank you for your help, getting closer to an initial solution.
With the following find (slightly different from yours, now profiles
are joined with the user_id / recipient_id in Message, like it is done
for users)
$this->data = $this->Message->find(
'all',
array(
'joins' => array(
array(
'type' => 'LEFT',
'table' => 'profiles',
'alias' => 'SenderProfile',
'conditions' => array(
'Message.user_id' => 'SenderProfile.user_id'
)
),
array(
'type' => 'LEFT',
'table' => 'profiles',
'alias' => 'RecipientProfile',
'conditions' => array(
'Message.recipient_id' => 'RecipientProfile.user_id'
)
)
)
)
);
I get the following SQL (where instead of '*' there is the complete
list of not NULL fields)
SELECT *
FROM `messages` AS `Message`
LEFT JOIN profiles AS `SenderProfile` ON (`Message`.`user_id` =
'SenderProfile.user_id')
LEFT JOIN profiles AS `RecipientProfile` ON (`Message`.`recipient_id`
= 'RecipientProfile.user_id')
LEFT JOIN `users` AS `Sender` ON (`Message`.`user_id` = `Sender`.`id`)
LEFT JOIN `users` AS `Recipient` ON (`Message`.`recipient_id` =
`Recipient`.`id`) WHERE 1 = 1
Still not working, because SenderProfile and RecipientProfile returns
NULL fields.
But if in PHPMyAdmin I change the SQL to
SELECT *
FROM `messages` AS `Message`
LEFT JOIN profiles AS `SenderProfile` ON (`Message`.`user_id` =
`SenderProfile`.`user_id`)
LEFT JOIN profiles AS `RecipientProfile` ON (`Message`.`recipient_id`
= `RecipientProfile`.`user_id`)
LEFT JOIN `users` AS `Sender` ON (`Message`.`user_id` = `Sender`.`id`)
LEFT JOIN `users` AS `Recipient` ON (`Message`.`recipient_id` =
`Recipient`.`id`) WHERE 1 = 1
the above mentioned fields are no longer NULL, it seems that the query
is working.
I just changed (almost impossible to detect...):
'SenderProfile.user_id' into `SenderProfile`.`user_id`
'RecipientProfile.user_id' into `RecipientProfile`.`user_id`
Any idea how to solve this last bit?
Best,
Mario
