Re: how to debug on a "add" function of controller

Try to make like this:

            debug($this->request) OR die;

1. Take a look if inside the $this->request there is a node 'data' with your data is been sent
   
2. OR die stops your code after the debug so you can verify if the code is triggered easily
   
3. Is your request in fact a POST
   
4. Is your data been added to database?  
   
5. Is your code in your controller?

code looks like:

    public function add()

    {

        $magazine = $this->Magazines->newEntity();

        if ($this->request->is('post')) {

            debug($this->request->data);

            $magazine = $this->Magazines->patchEntity($magazine, $this->request->data);

            if ($this->Magazines->save($magazine)) {

                $this->Flash->success(__('The magazine has been saved.'));

                return $this->redirect(['action' => 'index']);

            } else {

                $this->Flash->error(__('The magazine could not be saved. Please, try again.'));

            }

        }

        $periodicity = $this->Magazines->Periodicity->find('list', ['limit' => 200]);

        $categories = $this->Magazines->Categories->find('list', ['limit' => 200]);

        $this->set(compact('magazine', 'periodicity', 'categories'));

        $this->set('_serialize', ['magazine']);

    }

thanks in advance
