Re: How encrypt IDs

That is one clever idea!

I completely agree with that statement, and i already have this type URL humanly parseable / bookmarkable in the system, for view records, example:

http://www.site.net/product/40/new-asus-gtx-580.html

After add UUID support i get this:

http://www.site.net/product/54212b46-87ec-48b7-8e51-42ea7f000007/new-asus-gtx-580.html

And that is i looking for.

PD: Extend your example: Implementation: It is very easy all you need is to specify your primary key as a CHAR (36) or BINARY (36) and CakePhP will automatically generate them for you, when new records are created.

Best wishes.

Hi

If you aren't planning on making any of these urls humanly parseable / bookmarkable, how about just having an path such as 

/edit/

I've been working on a ordering system which when i first select the record to edit i set the id into a session and then just use that on my edit pages.

if you are looking for something bookmarkable  but just don't want numerical ids, perhaps look at implementing UUID

According to the book:

"Rather than using an auto-increment key as the primary key, you may also use char(36). CakePHP will then use a unique 36 character UUID (String::uuid) whenever you save a new record using the Model::save method."
