View Helper =========== In your AppView, load the Helper as:: $this->loadHelper('Authentication.Identity'); For very simple checking whether the user is logged in you can use:: if ($this->Identity->isLoggedIn()) { ... } Getting user data can be done with:: $username = $this->Identity->get('username'); The following check can be used to tell if a record that belongs to some user is the current logged in user and compare other fields as well:: $isCurrentUser = $this->Identity->is($user->id); $isCurrentRole = $this->Identity->is($user->role_id, 'role_id'); This method is mostly a convenience method for simple cases and not intended to replace any kind of proper authorization implementation.
