To completely disable caching in CakePHP, you can disable the caching through the configuration settings in the core.php file.

1. Open the core.php file located in app/Config/core.php.
2. Find the section for caching settings, which may look like this:

1

Cache::config('_cake_core_', array(
    'engine' => 'File',
    'prefix' => 'cake_core_',
    'path' => CACHE . 'persistent' . DS,
    'serialize' => true,
    'duration' => '+1 days'
));

1. To disable caching completely, you can remove or comment out this configuration settings. You can do this by either deleting the code for caching settings or commenting it out like this:

// Cache::config('_cake_core_', array(
//     'engine' => 'File',
//     'prefix' => 'cake_core_',
//     'path' => CACHE . 'persistent' . DS,
//     'serialize' => true,
//     'duration' => '+1 days'
// ));

1. Save the core.php file after removing or commenting out the caching settings.

By following these steps, you can effectively disable caching in CakePHP. Remember to keep a backup of your configuration files in case you need to revert to previous settings.
