Just upgraded this blog to CakePHP 1.2. Most stuff seems to work by now, but there is still some bits and pieces that needs to be figured out. Developing in Cake is always fun, and I with the new 1.2 version, its even easier.
Features of my new CakePHP app
Instead of handling to separate layouts, one for frontend and one for backend, I mashed these together. With the Auth components and inline editbuttons both are integrated both into one piece.
The static pages are still filebased (default CakePHP) but I plan on moving that content into the database as well.
Did drop all rich texteditors though. First off they are pretty huge in size (300-700 kb), and getting them to work the way you want is a pain in the ass. Think I rather try to write some own javascript to insert complicated tags and to convert code to entities
Also created a settingscontroller to keep all the settings like meta, title of site and stuff like that.
