Im just wondering and curious about how to achieve dynamic routes configuration in cakephp, or as such that I can create two routes like so:
Router::connect('/', array('controller' => 'users', 'action' => 'login'));
Router::connect('/', array('controller' => 'users', 'action' => 'dashboard'));
without trigerring the error everytime a user go to my site. What I want to do is to set '/' as my default landing page when user is not logged in, but in other way if the user is logged in and Auth session is present, i would like to set the url to '/' but pointing to user's dashboard.
What I thought was importing session in routes.php will work but it was not the way I expected:
App::import('Session', 'Component');
$this->Session = new SessionComponent;
if($this->Session->check('Auth.User')) {
Router::connect('/', array('controller' => 'users', 'action' => 'dashboard'));
} else {
Router::connect('/', array('controller' => 'users', 'action' => 'login'));
}
Any help is greatly appreciated, im sure many of us are waiting also for the answer. Thank you very much in advance. And wishing u a Happy Holidays.
