I made a form with a hidden field with the value of a email but the value email doesn't save in the database.

This is the form field:

echo $this->Form->hidden('emailadres', ['value' => 'email@example.com']);

When I read the array $this->request->data, I see the email in the array. The column in the database has the name 'emailadres'. This is the output of the array:

array(1) { ["Ticket"]=> array(9) { ["id"]=> string(2) "4872 ["emailadres"]=> string(24) "email@example.com" ["title"]=> string(5) "This is a title" ["department"]=> string(9) "department1" ["message"]=> string(32) "This is a message"} }

does anyone know why this email field is not saving to the database?

Thanks!

Does it work if the field is not hidden? If you have altered the table recently, make sure you have cleared the cache. See https://stackoverflow.com/questions/3111720/cakephp-why-do-some-changes-not-happen-until-i-switch-debugging-to-3 – Inigo Flores Nov 28 '17 at 15:10
No, it doesn't work when the field is not hidden... – Sander van Hoogdalem Nov 28 '17 at 18:48
