Hi Clement,
if one User can make a lot of proposals you ahve a on to man relation
here and your proposals table should contain the field user_id (indexed
of course *g*)
When you the set those relations properly in your models you will get
the without further tweeking the user data with the proposal and you can
display the name.
As long as you have only 4 tables the containable behaviour will not
beof interest for you. It is useful, when you have man connected models
and want one information down the chain without fetching a lot of unused
stuff. But in your case you will not need it.
Since you seem to be in the early stage of your app I would advise you
like heavykey to set up your database like you want and bake everything
from your cake console ( I hope you have a mac or Linux system. With
Windows the cake console is nasty to use) . After baking you will have a
set of models, Controllers and views, which will give you a good
starting point for further development. That works with 2.8, too.
Although if you are just starting with your app, then I would advise you
to start with CakePhp 3.x right away.

Thanks for your response, do you mean i should create a relationship
between the proposal and the user table?
will creating a proposal "belongs to user AND a User has many Proposal",
fix this problem?
As for containable behavior, please what do you mean ?
Your quick response would be appreciated.
Thanks

In your controller you have to fetch the user together with you proposal.
To achieve this check the following:
Check in Models your connection between proposal to user. Is it set in
both directions?
Check your find statement in the Controller Probably ProposalsController.
To which depth do you fetch the data? Do you use Containable Behaviour? If
yes you have to do some tweeks there.
Without your code I can give you no better advise, but at least you know
now where to check and whch code snippets to post to get qualified answers.

Note that this is my DB relationship, a user has one profile, and the
proposal table has a User_id colomn, however the profile table is the one
that contains the user's firstname.
Can someone help me please?
