try something like this: implement beforeFind() and set a condition:
class Celebrity extends AppModel {
var $name = 'Celebrity';
var $useTable = 'people';
function beforeFind($query) {
if (empty($query['conditions'])) {
$query['conditions'] = array($this->alias . '.type' => 2);
}
else {
$query['conditions'] = array(array($this->alias . '.type' => 2),
$query['conditions']);
}
return $query;
}
}
Might be worth moving this logic into a behavior for easy reuse...
