How to create data validation steps

1

Good morning all,

I am new to cakephp. Here is my concern, I am practicing to design an online subscription site. The customer arrived on the site clicks on an offer to subscribe and must be redirected to a customer information registration form then after validation, is directed to another page which displays the details of his subscription and finally he confirms his subscription . The problem is that I don’t know how to go about keeping information in memory at each stage of form validation.

Could help me to have a tip or method to overcome this problem. I thank you in advance.

I’m using the cakephp 3.8 version

One common way is to use sessions. This one of the strategies use by the Authentication plugin too.

I have a customer table, an offer table and a subscription table and I would like to use the customer table for authentication but this does not go out. I have reserved the user table for the administration part. Do you have a solution for me? I’m grateful to you.

Are you trying to save the customer record to a session so you can retrieve it on subsequent requests?

Can you share some code showing where your process is failing?

I present you the codes that I put for the authentication of the customers before they subscribe to an offer

at first, the client’s authentication does not work after creation of his account.

How is it failing?

  • Is there an error message?
  • Are the expected records being created in the database?
  • Is the password hashed in the database as expected?
  • Is there any Auth data showing in the session?

How is it failing?

the records are created in the database
passwords are hashed

But when I try to connect a client, I get the following error message: email or password is incorrect
Error

You’re trying to log in with a user record stored in the clients table? What steps have you taken to set that as the table that will be used for authenticating those logins?

I changed the code in the AppController file

Nothing about this changes what table it will be looking in. It changes what controller will be used, but that controller just calls $this->Auth->identify(), and by default that’s going to be using the users table.

In this case do you have a solution for me?
