FuelPHP Forums

Hello folks. First sorry if its a stupid question, maybe im missing something, but i ran in to my first fuelphp problem.
So i use Sentry, and i sat down yesterday for a bit more deep experimenting. So i have ORM for my blog posts, and i store the users id in the table, i though just to experiment, that i wont create a relation for the user by ORM i will use sentry by passing the user id to it via the user id stored in the post table so

<?php foreach($posts as $post): ?>
 echo $post->user_id;
<?php endforeach; ?>

returns me the user id in this case its equal to one. So when i experimented i tried like this

Sentry::user($post->user_id)->get('metadata.fullname');

I get the user not found error what is really strange because its returning the correct user id and the user does exists. and if i make it this way

Sentry::user(1)->get('metadata.fullname');

it returns the user perfectly, so its really strange. Again sorry if its a silly question, but did anyone else ran in to this problem? Than you for the replies
