Thanks Mike,
Let me show my code I may have missed something.
This is the model for the element
<?php
class Recentpost extends AppModel (recentpost.php)
{
var $name = 'Recentposts';
}?>
The following is the controller: (recentposts_controller.php)
<?php
class Recentposts extends AppController
{
var $name = 'Recentposts';
function recent(){
$this->set('recentposts', $this->requestAction('/posts/index',
array('return')));
}
}?>
this is the element code: (recentposts.thtml)
<table>
<tr>
<th>Id</th>
<th>Title</th>
<th>Created</th>
</tr>
<!-- Here's where we loop through our $posts array, printing out
post info -->
<?php foreach ($recentposts as $post): ?>
<tr>
<td><?php echo $post['Recentposts']['id']; ?></td>
<td>
<?php echo $html->link($post['Recentposts']['title'],
"/posts/view/".$post['Recentposts']['id']); ?>
</td>
<td><?php echo $post['Recentposts']['created']; ?></td>
</tr>
<?php endforeach; ?>
</table>
This is how I included the element in my default.thtml
<?php echo $this->renderElement('recentposts');?>
Is this the right way to add a recent posts block in my
default.thtml????
Thanks
