Re: how to add a relationship whit other key different to the PK

You can set foreign_key to false and instead use the condition of the
relationship. This is usually used for things like User.active => true
and simple things like that but I think it can be used for your
purpose.

COme to think of it, I may be wrong. I vaguely recall an RC for
Cake1.2 causing problems when the condition is not an array... and I
think you might need a string contition.
