Re: How to validate and update password of a user with affecting HABTM relations for the user?

I was able to solve this by first using $this->User->save($this->data)
so that I can validate the fields in the model.
Then switching to the "saveField" function in the Model's "beforeSave
()" callback so that the save would not affect the HABTM relations.
Here's the code for "beforeSave()":

function beforeSave() {
//If operation is save and this is an edit(has ID,password,
and password_confirm),
// use the saveField command to save the password
if(isset($this->data[$this->alias]['password']) && isset
($this->data[$this->alias]['id']) &&
isset($this->data[$this->alias]['password_confirm']))
{
return $this->saveField('password',$this->data[$this-
>alias]['password']);
}

$this->hashPasswords(null, true);
return true;
}
