Re: What happeened to the API Documentation on CakePHP.org?

I cannot agree. The new view of API is terrible for me. 
I liked to browse classes without typing their names and really loved all classes visible on single page.
Another annoying change is the order of class methods - it's not alphabetical anymore, but why ?!? How to find a particular method in class - I have to scroll and read (eventually) all class methods to find what I'm looking for.
And finally - I've never been interested of cake "packages", I've always looked for "classes". Now while reading HtmlHelperClass (for example) on the left panel I can select other "similar" helpers, but what if I want to read CakeResponse class. I have to use search box on the top, or must know the package that CakeResponse belongs to, and explore the package.

Hi there,

they've changed the API yesterday, and i found it quite good.


I've found it by using the search box (it has a very nice autocomplete).

Just remember to choose CakePHP version.

Exactly. When I used to go there I could choose to see the ALL the classes and choose from an alphabetical list. Now it shows a structure off to the left but when I try to find something like Debugger it is nowhere I can find.

When I go to the 2.0 version of the API (http://api.cakephp.org/2.0) to the left there is a structure that makes some sense. Debugger is found under Utilities. Not so under 1.3.

Is there still some work going on here that the structure is not complete?

I can't find the classes anymore. I was specifically looking for the Debugger class in 1.3. The structure that used to be there until recently is gone. What happened? Did I miss something?
