I am new on Yii framework, so please i need some help where to start.
What i need is, action and module to display a form to a user, which his will be able to edit is own profile (with profile picture), so i have 3 table
user_account || user_personal || user_general
how can i build a form that insert and update those 3 table at once?
i try this:
This is what i did, but its still not saving the data even into 1 table.
public function actionUpdate() {
$model = new ProfileUpdate();
if(isset($_POST['ProfileUpdate']))
{
$model->attributes = $_POST['ProfileUpdate'];
if($model->validate())
{
$account = new Profile();
$account->userid = Yii::app()->user->id;
$account->name = $model->name;
$account->website = $model->website;
$account->category = $model->category;
$account->save();
$this->redirect('profile');
}
}
model:
class Profile extends CActiveRecord
{
public $userid;
public $name;
public $website;
public $category;
public static function model()
{
return parent::model(__CLASS__);
}
public function tableName()
{
return 'userinfo';
}
public function primaryKey()
{
return 'id';
}
public static function userExists($user)
{
return self::model()->countByAttributes( array('username'=>$user) ) > 0;
}
}

You can use all three models in a single function
for example:
In create function
$model_account = new user_account;
$model_personal= new user_personal;
$model_general = new user_general;
$this->render('create',array(
'model_account'=>$model_account, 'model_personal' => $model_personal, 'model_general' => $model_general
));
here the all three models pass by render to create page.
in form page you can use the every model attributes as fields
Like this
echo $form->textField($model_account,'account_name');
echo $form->textField($model_personal,'email');
echo $form->textField($model_general,'address');
In create function / Update function
$model_account->attributes = $_POST['user_account'];
$model_personal->attributes = $_POST['user_personal'];
$model_general->attributes = $_POST['user_general'];
if($model_account->validate() && $model_personal->validate() && $model_general->validate())
{
$model_account->save();
$model_personal->save();
$model_general->save();
}
