CakePHP忽略$ paginate属性

Question

I've just baked a simple CakePHP app, and I'm trying to customize how records are paginated. I have this action in my controller:

public function index() {
    $this->Recipe->recursive = 0;
    $this->set('recipes', $this->Recipe->paginate());
}

This works fine with the default pagination. I'm trying to customize the amount of rows returned and their order by using a class property called $paginate in the same controller:

public $paginate = array(
    'limit' => 1,
    'order' => array(
        'Recipe.title' => 'asc'
    )
);

However it's taking no effect at all. The results still have the default limit and sort order. I've also tried setting up $this->paginate in my action, however this seems to get ignored also:

public function index() {
    $this->paginate = array(
        'limit' => 1,
        'order' => array(
            'Recipe.title' => 'asc'
        )
    );
    $this->set('recipes', $this->Paginator->paginate());
}

What could be causing Cake to ignore the pagination options I'm setting? Does it perhaps do something funky when you bake the application which I'm not aware of?

Try

public function index() {
    $this->Paginator->settings = array(
        'limit' => 1,
        'order' => array(
            'Recipe.title' => 'asc'
        )
    );
    $this->set('recipes', $this->Paginator->paginate());
}
