Re: Site wide settings with Configure::write and read

AppController:
       function beforeFilter() {
              //Loading model on the fly
              $this->loadModel('Setting');
              //Fetching All params
        Configure::write('settings', $this->Setting-
>find('list', array ('fields' => array ('Setting.name',
'Setting.value'))));
       }

Everywhere then:
       Configure.read('settings.my_setting_name');

Changes:
1. Code without reference to unknown variables
2. Code is simpler by utilizing standard Cake features
3. Code is placed into callback so no need to call this method
manually (did you call your method at all?)
4. Settings are saved under general "settings" key to not mix with
other things may be placed in Configure (remove prefix if you need to
replace standard values such way - like "debug")
