    <p>When using models that don't reflect CakePHP's conventions, there are a few things you can configure to get things working.</p> <p>When you create your User model (or whatever you have called it), you can specify <a href="http://book.cakephp.org/view/1058/useDbConfig" rel="nofollow noreferrer">which database</a> the table is in, what the <a href="http://book.cakephp.org/view/1059/useTable" rel="nofollow noreferrer">name of the table</a> is, if the <a href="http://book.cakephp.org/view/1060/tablePrefix" rel="nofollow noreferrer">table has a prefix</a>, what the <a href="http://book.cakephp.org/view/1061/primaryKey" rel="nofollow noreferrer">primary key field is called</a> (usually <code>id</code>), and what the <a href="http://book.cakephp.org/view/1062/displayField" rel="nofollow noreferrer">display field is</a> (usually <code>name</code> or <code>title</code>).</p> <p>When setting up <code>AuthComponent</code>, you can also specify what <a href="http://book.cakephp.org/1.3/en/The-Manual/Core-Components/Authentication.html#usermodel" rel="nofollow noreferrer">model to use</a> (usually <code>User</code>) and what the <a href="http://book.cakephp.org/view/1265/AuthComponent-Variables#fields-1267" rel="nofollow noreferrer">username and password fields</a> are called.</p> <p>A combination of the above configuration options should usually be enough to get CakePHP understanding how to your table schema is set up.</p> <p>However, in some cases this isn't enough, so you can override or extends parts of the core <code>AuthComponent</code> to get it working the way you want (usually just the <code>identify</code> method is needed, as you pointed out). A few example scenarios would be <a href="https://stackoverflow.com/questions/1397091/alternative-authentication-sources-in-cakephp-ldap/1399855#1399855">LDAP authentication</a>, trying to authenticate over <a href="https://stackoverflow.com/questions/2973620/cakephp-auth-with-multiple-users-tables/2974494#2974494">multiple User tables</a>, and trying to authenticate where there are <a href="https://stackoverflow.com/questions/1677532/cakephp-auth-component-using-2-tables/1701826#1701826">joined User and Email tables</a>.</p>

    2. COYes, if you check the last three links in my answer, those examples only override `identify()` (`startup()` and `login()` remain the same as in the core).

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.

SQuiL has stopped working due to an internal error.

If you are curious you may find further information in the browser console, which is accessible through the devtools (F12).
