I’ve compiled a list of all code snippets in CakePHP which help me doing things faster in Cake. I hope this will be helpful for you too.
1. Tag Cloud: Web2.0 way of showing tags.. This customizable snippet will allow you to add tag cloud easily.
2. AJAX Auctocomplete: Another basic requirement of the latest web technologies. Also check out the Autocomplete article to implement the same.
3. AJAX Star Rating: This is a great one, lets you implement the rating system with your Cake application very fast and without any pain.
4. AJAX Chat Plugin: This is my favorite one, lets you implement AJAX chat easily - this can serve so many purposes in an application.
5. Flickr Gallery: This is a great article by Jonathan Snook. Lets you create a flexible attractive gallery with your own application.
6. GeoCoding: Good for mashup applications which uses Google Maps or Yahoo maps.
7. Ajax Validation Component: This component adds a few validation options to CakePHP validations. And yes, its more web2-ish.
8. Lightbox Effect Helper: Easily implement lightbox effect to your links and images.
9. Google Map Helper: Lets you add Google Map to any application in no-time, lacks flexibility, but speeds up the implementation process. This was developed by me.
10. jQuery Helper: jQuery is designed to change the way that you write JavaScript.
Please feel free to add up more to the list.
Additional Stuff:
1. Submit forms with AJAX in CakePHP
