Well you all seem knowledgeable so I was wondering if you could help me out! I am struggling with having the authComponent use email instead of username for login. Cake Version 1.2

This is what I have in app_controller:
var $components = array(‘Auth’);

function beforeFilter() {
$this->Auth->fields = array(
‘username’ => ‘email’,
‘password’ => ‘password’
);
}

This is what I have in login.ctp:
echo $form->create(‘User’, array(‘action’ => ‘login’));
echo $form->input(‘email’);
echo $form->input(‘password’);
echo $form->end(‘Login’);

I have verified that the registration is working – db is storing users perfectly w/ hashed password. Even after changing the fields in the app_controller before filter, I am getting “Login failed. Invalid username or password.” as the auth flash message.

Someone please help! – I can not believe I am running into a roadblock so early on…

nicely presented article. why not arrange seminar at your office and invite our php team too.
so we could have more collaboration, perhaps.

best wishes,

Hi – I think you really capture the spirit of Cake here. Once you have grasped how everything works and start to get a bit of familiarity with the framework, you really don’t want to go back to old fashioned ways of working. I started using Cake about a year ago and now I build pretty much everything using it. When I have to go back and work with sites built with random collections of functions etc. my heart sinks – bad enough with the code I have written myself, god forbid I have to work with what colleagues and ex-colleagues leave behind.

Last week I discovered 1.2 – and I am gutted – I cannot believe that I have been using 1.1 all this time. 1.1 is great but as you say here there are so many great things built into the core of 1.2 – pagination, improved validation, ‘with’ support for HABTM relationships. Best of all the manual even in its half finished state is superb.

I just can’t believe it took me so long to get to 1.2

Cheers

John
