Re: How to get related username in view?

You're doing something wrong - this is very standard stuff. Have you got the Containable behaviour attached to the Category model? Or app_model?

Daniel - this is 101 CakePHP - no, PHP - stuff.

Your controller function will call a model function to do the find. Put the code inside that model function. Or - if you want to call this find directly from a controller (the revised version I just sent you) - put it in a controller function (view?).

I don't understand how to put the code into the model so I put the
modified code in the controller (with one change, there is no
Category.category_id it's just Category.id)

$categories = $this->Category->find(
'all',
array(
'conditions' => array('Category.id' => $id),
'Contain' => array(
'Post' => array(
'User' => array(
'User.id',
'User.name'
)
)
)
)
);

I don't get any error but now my related posts have disappeared from
the category view, so I can't use this solution as it stands.
