Bill, you might want to avoid insulting those users who ask "shitty code questions" while in the same post asking for their help...
You are looking for hangups in cakephp where your database setup will differ due to limitations with the framework. To this point, I have only experienced a direct relationship between the quality of your database setup and your final product and the ease at which you can bring it to completion. Cake offers many different ways to handle the same situation, be it auto-magic or manual. The quote at the end of John's link<http://lwn.net/Articles/193245/>was in fact correct and should point you towards the idea that if you want the most optimal use of your time, spend it on your data architecture because once that is solid, cake can handle the rest. While I am sure that everyone here has their own opinions on what constitutes a good database setup, it might also not be the proper forum for such a discussion to the degree you are looking for as a MySQL forum might get you closer to your goal. On the other hand, if you have some shitty code questions to ask, we would be happy to help. ~Michael -- Our newest site for the community: CakePHP Video Tutorials http://tv.cakephp.org Check out the new CakePHP Questions site http://ask.cakephp.org and help others with their CakePHP related questions.
