Re: how can I set my home page

Yes I'm using the Auth component, and yes I've added the Auth
component in my AppController.
I'm new to CakePhp so this might sound like a stupid question

I added the home action on $this->Auth-
>allow('index','view','recover','verify','home');
I thought this would solve the problem but its still asking me to log
in. Please advice.

this is my Appcontroller:

class AppController extends Controller {
var $components = array('Auth','Session','Email');
//var $helpers = array('Time');

function beforeFilter(){
$this->Auth->allow('index','view','recover','verify','home');
$this->Auth->userModel = 'Practitioner';
$this->Auth->fields = array('username' => 'email', 'password' =>
'password');
$this->Auth->authError = 'To login please enter your email and
password!';
$this->Auth->loginError = 'Incorect Email or password combination.';
$this->Session->write('Auth.redirect', null);
$this->Auth->loginRedirect = array('controller' => 'Practitioners',
'action' => 'index');
$this->Auth->logoutRedirect = array(Configure::read('Routing.admin')
=> false, 'controller' => 'Practitioners', 'action' => 'logout');
$this->Model->authUserId = $this->Auth->user('id');
}
}

Thanks in advance
