Question

I have multiple records I cant save . What is happening is that only the last record is saved and not the others. I am also trying to remove the id from each record. I have tried SaveAll,SaveMany etc

controller

if ($this->request->is('post')) {
    $this->Availtmp->create();
    $tutoredit = array('Availtmp' => $this->request->data);
    debug($tutoredit) ;

    $tutoredit['Availtmp']['id']=NULL;
    $tutoredit['Availtmp']['tutor_id']=$id;;

    if ($this->Availtmp->save($tutoredit)) {
        $this->Session->setFlas.....
    }

view

foreach ($tutor as $key => $item):

    echo $this->Form->input('AvailabilityForTutor.'.$key.'weekday', 
        array('value' => $this->request->data[$key]['AvailabilityForTutor']['weekday'])
    );

    echo $this->Form->input('AvailabilityForTutor.'.$key.'start_time', 
        array('type' => 'time', 'selected'=>$this->request->data[$key]['AvailabilityForTutor']['start_time'])
    );

    echo $this->Form->input('AvailabilityForTutor.'.$key.'end_time', 
        array('type' => 'time','selected'=>$this->request->data[$key]['AvailabilityForTutor']['end_time'])
    );


    echo $this->Form->hidden('AvailabilityForTutor.'.$key.'.id',
        array('value' => $this->request->data[$key]['AvailabilityForTutor']['id'])
    );

endforeach;

echo $this->Form->end('Save Edit Request');

Answer 1

Did you try

$this->Availtmp->saveAll($this->request->data['AvailabilityForTutor']);

your are missing a dot

echo $this->Form->input('AvailabilityForTutor.'.$key.'weekday', 

it should be

echo $this->Form->input('AvailabilityForTutor.'.$key.'.weekday', 

you missed that on every line in your ctp except for the field id
