Topic: help with cakephp

[doug007]

Hi Guys,

I am new to cakephp and have spend hours reading up on it trying to get something done at no joy.  Of what appears relatively simple is actually proving complex. 

I have cakephp installed on a directory serving a website.  now all i want to do is add another folder lets say "test" and serve a new web site from there.  so when you type www.example.com/test it serves the new site in depended from the existing one.  But I'm having no joy in accomplishing this.

Any help would really be much appreciated.

Cheers

As far as I know, all you can do is put a second installation of CakePHP in the new folder if you want an independent site.

What you are trying doesn't make much sense.  Why bother with a framework if you don't want to utlize the MVC?  Cake will write urls based on your application. You may be able to play around with app>config>routes, but by what you are trying will tell cake to look for the test controller which doesn't exist.
