Hi!
I am also falling in love with it, so far as to become jealous already :)
The authentication is what you did at your users pages. The authentication
and authorization are different. Now you have to set up the authorization
using some method, like controller/action authorization for example. And
then during the check you redirect users to login if they are not yet
logged in. But this has to be set up.
If you want it simple, you add something like this to your app controller;
public $components = array(
'Auth' => array(
'loginAction' => array(
'controller' => 'users',
'action' => 'login',
),
'loginRedirect' => array(
'controller' => 'users',
'action' => 'view',
),
);
And it will automatically redirect users to users/login if they are not
logged in.
Then you use $this->Auth->allow() and $this->Auth->deny() in your
controllers to control what methods are available to anonymous users.
There are other alternatives but this is the most basic setup, I think.
Cheers!
