Re: Converting an existing site using different framework to CakePHP

Unless the existing/old framework is derived from CakePHP, there is little chance that the application is organized in such a way that you can "import" it into CakePHP (or in any other popular framework for that matter).
Even a "manual" conversion is likely to require a lot of time and to produce an half-baked (pardon the pun) solution.
I would recommend to go back to the requirements, or reverse-engineer them from the existing application, and develop it from scratch, perhaps reusing only specific functions/algorithms from the old code.

Good luck
