Re: CakePHP without naming convention. is it possible?

to be honest,i don't really want this happen.but what am i supposed to
do?i cant build new database since the current database have lots of
datas inside. after i read ur reply i started to think like that as
well.my work will be hard later. i have to define lots of things on
the model and i don't have an idea about the unpreddicted issues which
will follow later.

do you have any idea to solve this problem?
