Re: Auth allow for shared functions in Appcontroller

Hi.

I have a function in my AppController = TellaFriend

That allows a visitor to email his friend about a spesific page on the website, eg: shared by all controllers

Now, if I need to have the function available to my views using PostsController, I need to put in Auth allow TellaFriend in Postscontroller.

And if I need it in PageController, I need to put in Auth allow TellaFriend in Pagecontroller also, and so on.

Since this is a shared function, I was wondering, is it possible to add it to AppController, and have it available app-wide?

I refer to my first post for the basic controller setup in use today (except anything Auth allow in AppController, If I put anything like the mentioned string in AppController, App does not work at all).

He means that he wants his AppController actions Auth::allow()ed globally.

I've never run into this personally; don't know if it's a bug. Are
these *actions* or just global functions that your controllers call
internally? The latter I've done many times. There's no need to allow
them as they're not actions that Dispatcher is involved with.

It can be an array or multiple strings, btw.
