Re: Edit User on second submit

you have to post a id set from the action

in your controller :-

$this->set('id',$id);

in your view

$this->Form->hidden('id',array('value'=>$id));

I am having the same problem with edit. I got exactly the same code as above. but when I try to edit and save the data, it does not save, it gives me flash message. I wonder what is wrong with the code because i follow this edit function from blog tutorial.

Thanks

I guess in your view you have to pass in the id (echo $this->Form->input('id');). This should include a hidden id field.
I wonder why it works the first time (without leaving a field blank). Are you sure the user gets edited and not a new user created? Because when you save $this->request->data, the data shouldn't contain the id if you didn't pass it from the view!

Hi,

I am trying to setup an Edit User authentication action.  I have authentication working fine for adding a user but when i try to edit a user i am running into a problem.  

If i try to edit a user when all information supplied passes validation it works fine (URL: http://localhost/users/edit/3).  If however i leave a textfield blank when i am validating it against 'notEmpty' the first time i hit the form submit button it works as expected and reloads the edit user page with the validation error displayed (URL: http://localhost/users/edit/3).  If i do nothing and try to submit the form again with the blank textfield i now get redirected to http://localhost/users/edit with an Invalid User message "Error: The requested address '/users/edit' was not found on this server."

<!-- app/Controller/UsersController.php -->

 public function edit($id = null) {

        $this->User->id = $id;

        if (!$this->User->exists()) {

            throw new NotFoundException(__('Invalid user'));

        }

        if ($this->request->is('post') || $this->request->is('put')) {

            if ($this->User->save($this->request->data)) {

                $this->Session->setFlash(__('The user has been saved'));

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

            } else {

                $this->Session->setFlash(__('The user could not be saved. Please, try again.'));

            }

        } else {

            $this->request->data = $this->User->read(null, $id);

        }

    }

<!-- view/users/edit.ctp -->

<div class="users form">

<?php echo $this->Form->create('User', array('action' => 'edit'));?>

<fieldset>

<legend><?php echo __('Edit User'); ?></legend>

<?php

echo $this->Session->flash();

echo $this->Form->input('firstname', array('label' => 'First Name'));

echo $this->Form->input('secondname', array('label' => 'Second Name'));

echo $this->Form->input('address_01', array('label' => 'Address Line 1'));

echo $this->Form->input('address_02', array('label' => 'Address Line 2'));

echo $this->Form->input('address_03', array('label' => 'Address Line 3'));

echo $this->Form->input('address_04', array('label' => 'Address Line 4'));

echo $this->Form->input('tel_01', array('label' => 'Telephone'));

echo $this->Form->input('email');

echo $this->Form->hidden('role', array('value' => 'customer'));

?>

</fieldset>

<?php echo $this->Form->end(__('Submit'));?>

</div>

<div class="actions">

<h5><?php echo __('Actions'); ?></h5>

<ul>

<li><?php echo $this->Html->link(__('List Users'), array('action' => 'index'));?></li>

</ul>

</div>

Does anyone know why i am getting redirected on the second submit?

Thanks!
