Re: Routing Issue

Since I'm no expert in Auth component, let me just sing you the song of my code. 

file: routes.php

Router::connect('/users/login', array('controller'=>'users', 'action'=>'login', 'prefix'=>'admin', 'admin'=>true));

file: AppController.php

public $components = array(

        'Auth' => array('authorize' => 'Controller', 

            // this forces admin_login to be the only login method regardless of prefix

            'loginAction' => array( 

                'controller' => 'users', 

                'action' => 'login', 

                'prefix'=>'admin', 

                'admin' => true))

    );

  public function beforeFilter(){

        if (isset($this->params['prefix']) 

             && in_array($this->params['prefix'], array('admin', 'editor'))) {

            //not relevant to question, but useful:

            Configure::write('Session.timeout', 60 * 4); 

            $this->layout = 'admin';

            

            $this->Auth->deny();

        } 

        else {

        Configure::write('Session.timeout', 60 * 48); //

        $this->layout = 'default';

                

        $this->Auth->allow('*');

        }

    }

    

    public function isAuthorized($user = null) {

        

        // Any registered user can access public functions

        if (empty($this->request->params['admin']) 

              && empty($this->request->params['editor'])) {

            return true;

        }

        // Only admins can access admin functions

        if (isset($this->request->params['admin'])) {

            return (bool)($user['role'] === 'admin');

        }

        // Only editors can access editor functions

        if (isset($this->request->params['editor'])) {

            return (bool)($user['role'] === 'editor');

        }

        // Default deny

        return false;

    }

This works for me (but test it anyways). I'm using 'admin' and 'editor', but login is always done through UserController::admin_login() method, regardless of prefix.
The login route is always /users/login, without the prefix.

Is this what you were searching for?
