First of all, thanks for looking. I am learning CakePHP and setting an app as I learn. I've come up to a problem that I dont seem to understand how to solve.
I have an articles controller with the following function:
function getRelated(){
$relatedarticles = $this->Article->find(
'all',
array(
'fields' => array(
'Article.title'
),
'limit' => 4,
'order' => 'Article.id ASC',
'recursive' => 1,
'conditions' => array(
'Article.category_id =' => '1'
)
)
);
if (!empty($this->params['requested'])) {
return $relatedarticles;
} else {
$this->set(compact('relatedarticles'));
}
}
I also have setup an element with the following code which I can use throughout my app:
<div id="articles_view_related">
Related News
<?php
$relatedarticles = $this->requestAction('/articles/getRelated');
//debug($relatedarticles);
?>
<ul>
<?php
foreach($relatedarticles as $relatedarticle){
?>
<li>
<?php
echo $relatedarticle['Article']['title'];
?>
</li>
<?php
}
?>
</ul>
</div>
As you can see from the code I have 'limit' set to 4, and 'category_id' set to 1. Basically, all I am looking to do is have CakePHP return 4 article titles where their category_id is 1.
MY PROBLEM: It is ONLY returning the first record in the database with the requested category_id but 4 times.:
Basically:
It returns:
- News article number 1
- News article number 1
- News article number 1
- News article number 1
When I need it to return something like this:
- News article number 1
- News article number 2
- News article number 6
- News article number 10
Please, if anyone could shed some light into this I would certainly appreciate. I have spent hours trying to figure this out.
Thanks alot,
Andre S.

The problem was somekind of bad relation that I am trying to understand:
I have the following relation in my articles.php model file:
var $belongsTo = array(
'Category' => array(
'className' => 'Category',
'foreignKey' => 'category_id',
'conditions' => '',
'fields' => '',
'order' => ''
),
'User' => array(
'className' => 'User',
'foreignKey' => 'user_id',
'conditions' => '',
'fields' => '',
'order' => ''
)
);
I removed the user relation and it now works good for this, but causing problems where user relation is needed.. does anyone know why?
