Re: Behavior method won't work

Okay, I think I got it. I've made a single function as you suggested.

Controller

    public function delete($id)
    {
        if ($this->request->is('get')) {
            throw new MethodNotAllowedException();
        }
        
        $this->Attraction->id = $id;
        
        if ($this->Attraction->softDelete($id)) {
            $this->Session->setFlash(__('The attraction with id %s was successfully deleted.', h($id)), 'default', array(
                'class' => 'alert alert-success'
            ));
        }
        
        return $this->redirect(array(
            'action' => 'index'
        ));
    }

AppModel

 class AppModel extends Model {
    
    // Soft delete functionaliteit
    
    public function beforeDelete()
    {
        if ($this->hasField('deleted')) {
            $this->saveField('deleted', date('Y-m-d H:i:s'));
        }
        
        return false;
    }
    
    public function softDelete($id)
    {
        $this->delete($id);
        
        $record = $this->find('count', array(
            'conditions' => array(
                "{$this->alias}.id" => $id,
                "{$this->alias}.deleted !=" => null
            )
        ));
        if ($record > 0) {
            return true;
        }
    }
}

And that works fine for me now! Stephen, thank you for you time and thank you very much to support me on this one!

I've pasted my code here so others can use this functionality too! ;)
