Re: Deep associations

By the looks of it you named your model correctly as "Items" but in your conditions your are referencing "Item". 

To find "count" ... 

$this->Section->find('count' , array(

                                                  'conditions'  => array(

                                                                                 'Items.user_id' => 1 

                                                                                 )

                                                   )

                             );

I'm playing with a simple model where

Section hasMany Catalogitem hasMany Item belongsTo User

and naturaly the other way-

User hasMany Item belongsTo Catalogitem belongsTo Section.

I'm trying to get count how many items I have per section for
user.id=1 - which is a very simple sql query (with 2 joins)-

SELECT sections.id, count(*)
FROM sections
JOIN catalogitems ON sections.id=catalogitems.section_id
JOIN items ON catalogitems.id=items.catalogitem_id
WHERE user.id=1
GROUP BY sections.id

But I'm not sure how to use cake for that:

$this->Section->find('all' , array( 'conditions' =>
array('Item.user_id' => 1)) )

I'm getting an error that 'Item.user_id' is an Unknown column.

Can anyone shed light regarding what's the problem, and how do I get
the find() to return a count of items per section for user.id?
