Best way to use a different model?

Yii 1.1 General Discussion

Hi,

I would like to use a different model class file ‘Members.php’ instead of the standard ‘User.php’ so that I can change some attributes of the database table without changing the module’s core code.

I’ve specified the new table in my config:




'user'=>array(

  'tableUsers'=>'{{members}}'

),

But the autoload still wants to load the ‘User.php’ class file, when I want it to load the ‘Members.php’ class file.

What is the best way to point the module to this class file? Should I not be doing this? Any other recommendations?

Thanks in advance.

Rich C.
