Over the coming weeks I’m going to be writing a series of posts covering some advanced CakePHP topics. A basic understanding of CakePHP is assumed and, despite many complaints, there is a ton of good information out there for getting started with CakePHP.

In no particular order:
The “Old” Manual
The “New” Manual
The Official API
The Official Google Group
The unreleased Unofficial Book (Here’s the latest sample I could find)
IBM’s 5-part “Cook up Web sites fast with CakePHP”

The topics to be covered include:

• Refactoring baked views and controllers
• Client and server side validation and messaging
• Essential helpers, components and behaviors
• Whatever else I think of…

If you’re interested sign up for the RSS feed. Look for the first post next week.
