After settings, please close your project and reopen it.
.cake is configuration file for plugins of editors and IDEs.
If your CakePHP project is not default directory structure, you should use it.
e.g. In case of your app/Model directory name is app/MyModel,
you have some Controller directories (Controller(default), SecondController, ThirdController), e.t.c.
You can create it with Dotcake Plugin .

--empty is used with bake project. If app name is empty, app directory is source directory, otherwise it is created under the source directory.
Support for core components and helpers (default). Also support for classes in $uses, $components, $helpers.(also contain the alias)
// e.g.
public $uses('Comment', 'Member', 'User');

public $components('Search.Prg', 'Foo');
// $this->P [Ctrl + Space] => $this->Prg-> [Ctrl + Space] => display methods and fields
public $helpers('Session', 'Html' => array('className' => 'MyHtml'));
// $this->Html-> [Ctrl + Space] => display MyHtmlHelper class methods and fields$this->Html->image('[Ctrl + Space]');
// popup file and directory names in the webroot/img
$this->Html->image('subdir/[Ctrl + Space]');
// popup file and directory names in the webroot/img/subdir
// ...
$this->Html->image('/mydir/[Ctrl + Space]');
// if you want to use files or directories in the webroot directory,
// please, start with "/"
$this->Html->image('Debug[Ctrl + Space]');
$this->Html->image('DebugKit.[Ctrl + Space]');
// support for Plugin images (CakePHP 2.x)If target file exists, image will be displayed on document window.
You can run code completion also css and script methods ($this->Html->css(), script()) like the same as image method.

// popup file and directory names in the webroot/css
$this->Html->script('subdir/[Ctrl + Space]');
// popup file and directory names in the webroot/js/subdir
$this->Html->css('/mydir/[Ctrl + Space]');
$this->Html->script('PluginName.[Ctrl + Space]');$this->element('[Ctrl + Space]');
// popup file names in the appdir/View/Elements/
$this->element('MyPlugin.[Ctrl + Space]');
// support for Plugin elements (CakePHP 2.x)This is available in the following fields. This can also complete the plugin name. Please run code completion again(i.e. [Ctrl + Space]) after "PluginName.".
- $components
- $helpers
- $uses
- $actsAs
// e.g.
public $components = array('[Ctrl + Space]');
public $components = array('DebugKit.[Ctrl + Space]');You can move from controller action to view file.
- Right-click at the controller action
- Navigate > Go to view
e.g.
class MainController extends AppController{
// ... something
public function index() {
// Right-click or shortcut here
}
}If you use shortcut, register with Keymap.
When the view file doesn't exist, create the empty view file automatically if set as follows.
Check Auto create a view file when go to view action is run
at Right-click on project node > property > Framework > CakePHP
If you use the theme, set $theme to controller field.
Available code templates : Tools > Options > Editor > Code Templates > HTML/PHP
e.g.

App::uses('AppController', 'Controller'); - chtml ->
$this->Html->
This feature is also available with code completion.
Similar to Go to view action.
- Right-click on the view file (in editor)
- Navigate > Go to action
You can go to specific files relate to a current file.
e.g. In case of current file is Controller, you can go to existing view, model, component, helper and test.
There are three ways.
- Shortcuts
- Editor Toolbar Menu
- Context Menu
Pattern : [Ctrl + Shift + G] [] (or [Ctrl + J] [])
- [Ctrl + Shift + G] [S] : Smart Go To
- [Ctrl + Shift + G] [M] : Go To Model
- [Ctrl + Shift + G] [V] : Go To View
- [Ctrl + Shift + G] [C] : Go To Controller
- [Ctrl + Shift + G] [B] : Go To Behavior
- [Ctrl + Shift + G] [H] : Go To Helper
- [Ctrl + Shift + G] [P] : Go To Component
- [Ctrl + Shift + G] [T] : Go To Test Case
- [Ctrl + Shift + G] [F] : Go To Fixture
Of course, if you don't like these shortcuts, you are able to change them in Options (KeyMap).
project properties > Frameworks > CakePHP Please uncheck the following if you would like to go to it soon (without popup) when candidate file is only one.

Q. Why do you add this action?
A. I add in order to follow the CakePHP Coding Standars
You can go to the element file from view file.
Search the following element file directories:
- app(app/View/Elements, app/views/elememts)
- core(lib/cake/View/Elements, cake/views/elements)
e.g.
$this->element('sample');Hold down Ctrl key and click on 'sample'.
If there is sample.ctp in the above directories, open the sample.ctp. Otherwise do nothing.
You can change debug level on popup list.
When you choose the CakePHP file node, you would find the cake icon and debug level number at the lower right of the window.
If you change debug level, click the icon. Then the popup is displayed. Please, select the debug level number.
Check default asset names. (e.g. css/cake.generic.css, img/cake.icon.png, ...)
Check whether favicon.ico is changed.
