I have an "examinations" table, its consultation_id relates to "consulsations" table, which in turn its consulation_id relates to the "patients" table.
Now, when I am in the add.ctp, edit.ctp or view.ctp of the "Examinations" Views I need to pull the "patients" details in so that some patient info can appear as to who the form pertains to as patient.
I have tried joins. Not to say they dont work. I am new to cakephp and I really need help as to how it will appear within the controller and how the view.ctp will display it.
I thought of elements but they are just .ctp files right?
Please if anyone can help regarding this it would be so appreciated. I've been trying to do this now for a week and I know there is something simple I am dont doing or thinking rights about.
So you just want to pull in related data? Pretty simple.
In your ExaminationsController methods.
$patients = $this->Examination->Consultation->Patient->find('all',
array('conditions'=>array('consultation_id'=>$id,'examination_id'=>$e_id)));
Something similar to this, not quite sure on which id you need to pass, as it will depend on how your models are linked up. http://book.cakephp.org/2.0/en/models/retrieving-your-data.html
However, if your models are linked up properly, you should get this data anyway. If not set your models recursion to be higher.
$this->Model->recursive = 2;

I'm running a CodeIgniter application with PHP-Activerecord installed and I need to do a massive delete. The PHP-AR library supports massive update and delete, but the function only takes the ids that you want to delete/update. I'm trying to do a massive delete where the ids are NOT in the list.
delete from table where id not in (1,2,3...,500)
Unfortunately, the PHP-Activerecord website is of no help, and their forums are so horribly built (no search... seriously?) that I'm truly stuck.
edit: Please note, CodeIgniter's built-in ORM is not the same as PHP-Activerecord. Just thought I'd clarify that.
A bit late but this may help someone else. In PHPActiveRecord, do it in this way:
$ids_to_delete = array(1,2,3);
YourModel::delete_all(array('conditions' => array('id NOT IN (?)', $ids_to_delete)));
Ref: http://www.phpactiverecord.org/docs/ActiveRecord/Model#methoddelete_all
SInce active record is actually build string query with function, you can use this method:
- make your list as string
- make this query : $this->db->where('id not in',$string)->delete('table')
I'm looking for a way to add a drop down for a customer's address (during registration, editing, checkout, etc..) that indicates whether or not it is a Residential or Business address. I have spent hours going through tutorials but they are all out of date or poorly written. I have read 6 different ones telling me how to do the same thing 6 different ways. Can someone outline a simple process that you need to do in order to add a custom attribute to an address? I'm on Magento 1.6
Try something like this tutorial at Fontis: Know More About Your Customers - Adding Custom Signup Attributes
Whilst this was written for 1.3.2.4, most (if not all) is still relevant for 1.6. I've done a very similar thing by allowing a customer to choose the customer group they wish to belong to, by following these directions.
Oh, and there are some great comments on the post as well.
These tutorials should give you a good idea how to do what you want:

I am making a site for a client and decided i would use code igniter.
The site essentially has two backends, one for designers, and one for a sales team. So after logging in, the user will be redirected to either
mysite.com/sales/
mysite.com/design/
The sales team for example can view orders, containers, products, therefore i need a controller for each of these.
mysite.com/sales/orders/
The sales need to be able to view, edit, delete certain orders...
mysite.com/sales/orders/vieworder/235433
Basically my problem is i dont have enough url segments to play with.
My thoughts on solving my problem
removing the orders, containers, products classes and making ALL of their methods as methods of the sales class, although this would mean a large number of methods and loading all models so it seemed kind of pointless.
removing the sales/designer classes and controlling what each kind of user has access to based on a user type stored in session data.
a way of having an extra url segment?
I appreciate any advice, I just dont want to get 3 weeks into the project and realise i started wrong from the beginning!
Use folders.
If you make a subfolder in /application/ called sales you can put different controllers in there:
/application/
/sales/
orders.php /* Controller */
/design/
Then in orders.php you will put your vieworders($id) method and so on, and you will be able to acces it with domain.com/sales/orders/vieworders/id.
You can also make subfolders in the /models/ and /views/ to organize your files.
Now, Access Control is something apart and it depends more in the auth system you are using.
Give the user/designer a privilege, a column in the user table for example, check the permission of the user at the beginning of the function, then prevent or execute it.
This would be the exact way i would do it.
Seems like you should have a look into the routing class. Might be a dirty solution but rerouting the sales/(:any) to something like sales_$1 would mean you'd make controllers with names like sales_orders.
Same for the design part.
(FYI: $routing['sales/(:any)'] = 'sales_$1'; should do the trick; see application/config/routing.php).
Hey, i've been looking around for a ajax dropdown sorter for my Views in Drupal.
Unfortunatly, i haven't found alot of usefull information about this subject.
Can anyone tell me if theres a solution already available or can help me started on a custom module by telling me which hooks i should use?
I had a similar issue. Unfortunately I wasn't able to sort the data from the database which is by far the best way. I was however able to take the data and sort it with PHP using a preprocessor function. Depending on the name of your view, setup a function similar to the following:
function templatename_preprocess_name_of__view(&$vars)
{
//Super sweet sorting code goes here
}
The name of your view needs to follow the name of the template file that it is driven by, if there isn't on you should create one. Make sure to change dashes to underscores in your function name. Hope this is helpful. If you find a way to do it from the DB I'm all ears because that would be super awesome.
Ive tried to gather information on as to how core data works, but can someone give me a clear explanation of all the stuff required...For instance NSDataContext, Fetchcontroller, NSDataModel, Presistent...
Perhaps all the steps involved to get a data...Now I'm also unclear about an SQLite file, like how do we load the data into the core data , once we have created our entities etc..
Thanks
The best place to look is the Core Data Programming Guide. Is there a specific question you have that isn't answered there?
