You should only need to specify the parent_id, which points to the ID
of the parent Category. So, when you go to /categories/add you should
pass the parent_id (so you can create a hidden element) OR have
something like a select list named for Category.parent_id.
For instance, in a CMS app i've been building, the
ContentsController::add method has:
$this->set('links', $this->Content->generatetreelist(null,
'{n}.Content.id', '{n}.Content.name', '--'));
In the view:
$form->select('Content.parent_id', $links, null, array(), true)
