I’ve been noticing that a lot of documentation in CakePHP seems to be spread out onto many different sites. In my opinion, the CakePHP manual isn’t comprehensive enough for learning.

Here’s a list of useful CakePHP resources I’ve used recently:

CakeForge – Great resource for Open Source CakePHP applications. This site has many more applications than the CakePHP Bakery.

Bakery – How to use different CSS files in CakePHP
http://bakery.cakephp.org/articles/view/some-ideas-to-organize-your-css-files-and-autoload-them-in-cakephp

Giga Promoters – CakePHP tutorials and scripts:

I’ll be updating this list as I find more resources.

Here’s a quick tip to make cleaner looking URLs in CodeIgniter PHP framework. By default, if you have an application, the path of the application usually ends after index.php. Using Apache RewriteEngine, you can make cleaner looking URLs. You can have something similar to mysite.com/cigniter/MyApplication instead of mysite.com/cigniter/index.php/MyApplication
