Re: Help with function Login()--using Auth (Redirecting issue)

Hi,

In CakePHP, the views don't display directly, you need to render them using actions of controllers. From your description, it seems that you need to redirect to /posts/index page, so use

$this->redirect(array('controller' => 'posts', 'action' => 'index'));

to go to that page.

Hope this helps.

Hi,

After successful login, I want it to redirect to app/views/posts/
index.ctp

Originally, the redirect code is like this:
(1)
~~
$this->redirect('/');
~~
I changed to:
(2)
~~
 $this->redirect(array('action' => 'index'), null, true);
~~
(3)
~~
$this->redirect(array('action' => 'views/posts/index'), null, true);
~~

All failed to redirect to *app/views/posts/index.ctp
~~
It consistently redirected me to my App/index.ctp which displays all
my cakephp versions stuff (mod rewrite...etc the green page),
regardless of the 3 redirect methods used above.

Is it something wrong with my Login() function instead ??



Thanks,

Maxim J.
