probabaly a daft question but when creating a user using .net membership, can i exclude the username and just have the email as the 'username' like this?
Membership.CreateUser(model.UserName, model.Password, model.Email, ....
or leave blank...
Membership.CreateUser("", model.Password, model.Email, ......
What is the difference when retrieving username for the view?
<%= Page.User.Identity.Name %>
or
<%= Membership.GetUser().UserName %>
I am able to change a username by directly accessing the asp.net membership user tables. However, the old username is preserved in a new row and assigned a new UserID automatically by asp.net. How do I stop that from happening?
EDIT: only in the users table and roles table, not the membership table.
var mUser = dc.aspnet_Users
.Where(u => u.UserId == (Guid)user.ProviderUserKey)
.Select(u => u).SingleOrDefault();
mUser.UserName = newName;
mUser.LoweredUserName = newName.ToLower();
try
{
dc.SubmitChanges();
}
catch
{}
I have seen a lot of question asking about known user name and how to retrieve UserId accordingly. How about the other way around?
For some reason I have UserId, but I don't want to include aspnet_User table into my data entities. Is there any way I can retrieve the user name without querying against aspnet_User table?
I want to use email address as username in membership api instead of accepting a username.
i want that user can signup to my site using email address and he can login using email id+password instead username and password.
1. I want to use membership functionality without username/password
instead I want to use this functionality based on tracked IP's. Is it possible
Is it a good idea? I want to use my application on all famous mobile platforms and desktops mac/win
2. Is it hard (or is it good idea) to have user info stored into database for specific amount of time based on IP instead of persistent cookies? (I mean user can close browser, etc. Usually this time will be 1 hour)
I'm using Membership but allow to change UserName of specified user. I had user named Customer bound to role Customer, and then his username was changed to 123. Then i try to do something to get Roles of this user and get an error or empty result.
View 2 RepliesI have an Employee class in my App_Code folder. On my login page I am trying to create an Employee using the asp.net username as a parameter in my Employee constructor.
I have tried creating the employee in the page load event when it is a post back. I have tried doing it in the Login1_LoggedIn event. For some reason I cannot pull the username in either one of these places, but if I redirect after logging in and do the same thing on another page, it works.
How can I get it done on the login page?

When I click the "delete" linkbutton, it can delete the all User info from my "UserDetail" table in my "JobPost.mdf", it also delete the corresponding "aspnet_Users" & "aspnet_Membership",but the "UserInRole" still contain that UserName. Even though I specified the Code:Membership.DeleteUser(UserName, true);
I thought true is for bool deleteallrelated data, but it doesn't really delete the userInRole. So next time the user registers with the same name, it automatically get the "admin" role right. This "deleteUser" page I keep it inside a protected "admin"folder. How to solve it? Why Membership.DeleteUser(UserName, true) doesn't delete UserInRole?

I have an ASP.NET VB website in which I am using the Membership functionality to authenticate users. I am doing this through the Login control on the HTML page. I have working that it will authenticate the user and then opens a welcome screen in which I have a button they can push to open a Reports.aspx page. On that page I have a dropdown box that is being populated from a datasource connection query to my SQL Server database table. It is a hard coded query but want it to query the table off the username text value that the user provided on the login (i.e. select <something> from inventory where username = <username>). I have not behind code but only HTML at this point. Here it is ...

I recently got a form to work with the "HttpContext.Current.User.Identity.Name.ToString" String. That basic idea was I needed a hidden form field so that each record submitted would include the UserName of the user logged in to the membership. However, whenever I try to create a custom query for the gridview, it doesn't submit. how I would go about doing this? Code as below:

View 2 RepliesI have an ASP.Net application that uses the Membership Login Control. The thing is, we wanted to avoid giving our members more than they need to worry about, so we didn't want to have to make each a custom username. So the thing is, I want to make the Login Control display a DropDown List populated with a list of usernames as opposed to a text box.

How do I create a custom membership for ASP.NET MVC 2 based on the ASP.NET membership provider?
View 5 RepliesI have an administration website - the users of which should be able to modify users for a public site. This means the administration site has a valid membership provider, but I want to be able to access/change members in another site (and therefore ApplicationName).
First thought was to set ApplicationName on the Membership static - but that seems like a bad idea according to answers here: Changing Membership.ApplicationName in code - thread safety.
Second thought was to duplicate the MembershipProvider entry to the web.config - so now I can do WebSiteMembershipProvider = Membership.Providers("WebsiteSqlMembershipProvider") - but I can't now seem to get to a 'Membership' object which will let me (for example) call the standard 'CreateUser' method.
I tried WebSiteMembershipProvider.CreateUser - but it takes a load more parameters, and doesn't seem to do anything if I poke some values into it.
Am I nearly there? Or do I need a different approach? There's always the SqlProvider's stored procedures, I suppose...
Just trying to create a new web project in VS2010 with the default membership dB, but when I run the WSAT tool, I get the error:
There is a problem with your selected data store. This can be caused by an invalid server name or credentials, or by insufficient permission. It can also be caused by the role manager feature not being enabled. Click the button below to be redirected to a page where you can choose a new data store.
The following message may help in diagnosing the problem: Could not load type 'NewSite.Global_asax'.
I thought VS2010 would automagically create the aspnetdb.mdf dB in the App_data folder.
