using the same simple call .
So here's how I did it. First, after the User logged in, grab the user's ID and use CakePHP Magic call to fetch all the user's details and later store it in Configure's basket.
![]() |
app_controller.php |
Now here the best part,
# fetch the user's id
$user_id = Configure::read('LoggedIn.User.id');
# fetch the user's email
$user_email = Configure::read('LoggedIn.User.email');
# fetch the user's group title ( User belongsTo Group )
$user_group_title = Configure::read('LoggedIn.User.Group.title');
And the best part is, you can use this call in Model,Behavior,Helper,Component,View,Element and Controller.
![]() |
getting $user_id in Model Callback never been easier |
