Re: CakePHP 2.4 Auth->login() always return TRUE ... ?

You are like the 400th person who didnt read that part of the documentation in 2.x

http://book.cakephp.org/2.0/en/core-libraries/components/authentication.html#identifying-users-and-logging-them-in

(red warning box)

if ($this->Auth->login($this->request->data['User'])) {}

always logs this data in

you need:

if ($this->Auth->login()) {}
