Whats the best way to do this in cakephp
I'm new to cakephp and still learning my way through php in general. To learn I'm trying to build an app which allows the following:
- A user can sign up (using the basic Auth component)
- A signed up user can create a 'campaign', ie fill in a form which will end-up as a page on my website containing details of things the user is trying to achieve. As well as that there will be a 'story' field in the form for the user to explain the reason they are trying to achieve whatever it is they are doing. 

Users will have different reasons for creating their campaign, ie new years resolution/wife nagged you into doing it/need to make more money etc etc... 

To help users along what I'd like is to have some default stories written and via a radio button users can select their default template to edit. In other words, if they select the 'new years resolution' template a pre-written story will appear in the text box for the story field which they can edit to their preference before submitting.

As I said, Im new to cakephp but have bought all the books and read the manual a couple of times, but since I'm also a bit green with php too I'm struggling a bit. But whats the best way to go about doing the above?

If someone could give me a bit of a break down so I can go off and google the correct things then it would sure make this learning curve a whole lot less daunting.

thanks in advance
