cakephp
|ignore-field
In one of my models, I have a "LONGTEXT" field that has a big dump of a bunch of stuff that I never care to read, and it slows things down, since I'm moving much more data between the DB and the web app.
Is there a way to specify in the model that I want CakePHP to simply ignore that field, and never read it or do anything with it?
I really want to avoid the hassle of creating a separate table and a separate model, only for this field.
Thanks!
Daniel
