I use passwords that can be made valid for a single request, log the user in directly (either by link or by form)

Hi Franklin

If the model that you authenticate against is the Person model, then you should be able to get away with

public function index() {

    $this->set('people', $this->Auth->user();

}

Since Auth->user() should return the whole model.  Though you might want to double check with a bit of debug (DebugKit, or CakeLog::debug($this->Auth->user()) or errorLog(print_r($this->Auth->user(), true));

Alternatively, there's:

public function index() {

   $person = $this->Person->read(null, $this->Auth->user('id'));

   $this->set('people', $person);

}

Once small niggle on readability.  Setting 'people' implies that there are might be multiple people in the variable.  If there's only ever going to be the one person, I would set('person') instead (i.e. $this->set(compact('person'));) , or put the $person into an array, so you can have a foreach in your index (i.e. $this->set('people', array($person)); )

Hi, this is what i´m trying to do, i have this index.ctp view where i show some information about the logged user (such as name, mail, etc).. but in the Users table there´s a field called info that the user can update, the thing is that, in my index fuction in my Users´s controller i have this
 
public function index() {
        $this->Person->id = $this->Session->read('Auth.User.id');
        $this->set('people', $this->Person->read());
    }

it shows the info perfect, so, in my index view i have a little section with a textfield where the user can update this "info" field, so the thing is that i'm trying to create this form in an element and include it into my index view, i have my controller's action called update_info with the logic to do so.. but it doesn´t works, i don´t know why, anybody canhelp me with this or maybe give me ideas about other ways to do it???
