I'm confused.....

I don't get why you're adding the same beforeFilter() to post_controller....

However, speaking in GENERAL TERMS:
If you set a beforeFilter() in app_controller and also NEED a beforeFilter()
in other controllers, you simply need to ensure that in that beforeFilter()
you call parent::beforeFilter() (before of after your code; which ever suits
you purposes).
