We have added some custom profile properties to the web.config - what we want to do is have the code access them once (when user logs in) and cache this so that the code doesn't have to hit the database each time we call Profile.<our custom profile property name>
What we see is a call to GetProperties or GetProfile each time we access Profile. <our custom profile property name> - whats the recommended way to do this?
I am using my aspnet membership for storing user profile related information in the database and I am looking for a way to access that information out of database from a function like Member.GetProfile. I am just wondering of any of the membership classes give thet functionality that I can actually access the information out of Membership database.
Somebody suggested me follwowing thread:

I am "Profile" object is not recognized in my code I think they are trying to refer to some some instance of a class here by the word Profile but I am not sure what instance is that.
We've been using the custom SQL table profile provider offered on the MSDN site.No problem configuring the new provider and saving profile values into our custom table while using the Create User Wizard.However, we cannot seem to be able to display the profile properties, using

The user is logged in, and there are no problems displaying all membership values and role values.
How do I get access to my custom strong-named properties of the common profile (page.profile) in ASP.NET for a classes that does not derive from page? I thought I could just pass in httpcontext.profile but I'm missing the custom properties.
There should be some class type that I can pass in? It appears the class type is ProfileCommon and is auto-generated.
I am using VB.Net/ASP.Net 2008/3.5 to create a Web Application and I am trying to access the Profile Class.
I notice that unlike a "Website" that you cannot access the Profile class from a "Web Application" and I was wondering what is the best way of adding the Profile class to a Web application?
If the answer to this question exists somewhere, I'm no good at searching for it. This is sort of a simple question, the response being two parts: (1) is it possible? (2) if so, how?
I've created a web user control for my site's footer. In my web.config I have it registered like this:
[Code]....
Then, within the pages on my site, I simply insert it like this:
[Code]....
But obviously, that didn't work. I get this error: The type or namespace name 'FooterControl' could not be found (are you missing a using directive or an assembly reference?)
So I'm really not sure what to do at this point. I can put all of my code in the ASPX file and make my life easier, but I would kind of prefer not to.
I've been experimenting with the ASP.NET profile system and I like how easy it is to add data to the profile programmatically and how to access it again, all in a single line.
However, I've see the input that it sticks in the database and I'm not too keen on it.
I'd really like to create my own separate tables, so everything is nice and logical and easy to access, but I'd still like to be able to access this "profile" data as easily as I could with the ASP.Net profile system.
Should I create some kind of class in a separate class file that does all the hard work, then I can access the information from intellisense?
I have been struggling to save custom property data into member using createuserwizard. I add some extra fields into createuserwizard using wizardsteps and What I would like to accomplish is to save extra data of that fields and see that data on admin backend of member section of umbraco cms.
What I have done so far in brief:
Created a user control using asp.net createuserwizard and save it to umbraco.
I also added a macro into usercontrol which pulls its data from dropdown list multiple render control data type which has some prevalues.
After selecting values and creating user, none of the selected values of dropdown list multiple render control data type are selected on admin backend but address are successfully saved.
Code behind file:Roles.AddUserToRole(UserName.Text, "BasicUsers");var profile = System.Web.Profile.ProfileBase.Create(UserName.Text);profile["sector"] = Sector.SelectedItem.Value;profile["address"] = Address.Text;profile.Save();
That relevant code snippet above works well like profile["address"] = Address.Text; but I am unable to save with other renders controls as Dropdown list multiple.
I'm still trying to learn how all of this works, and I apologize if this is a simple fix, but I'm getting frustrated and I could use some help.
I found an XML profile provider that I'm trying to use, and when I set it up, it works fine on my local machine. However when I upload it to the server, I get an error and I don't really know what it means:

The week of torture and confusion at a higher level.I added a custom profile provider.
<profile defaultProvider="MySqlProfileProvider">
<providers>
<remove name="AspNetSqlProfileProvider"/>[code]...
I had to add the <remove name="MySqlProfileProvider"/>as it error with "the entry MySqlProfileProvider has already been made."The problem now is that it will only hold the data the first time I log in and create the account. Everything run find until you close the browser and try to log in the next time. Then the pages that use the profile properties tells me that there is no profile data for the same fields like there name for this user.It was there the first time and save it but the 2nd login it gone. Seems to me that the remove actually removes the data even when you save itI got it to work on the local server by setting MySqlProfileProvider up in using IIS managment tools. My local now rund fine. However my service provider will not make the manual entry for me.
I am trying to use a second (custom) table to extend my users profile info. This table is in the same database as the 'aspnet_Users' table but has a different name. I create a FK relationship between the 'aspnet_Users' table and my custom table. Here is my web.config code:
<profile defaultProvider="AspNetSqlMembershipProvider">
<providers>
<clear />
<add name="AspNetSqlMembershipProvider"
type="System.Web.Profile.SqlProfileProvider"
connectionStringName="ConString_SQLConnectionString"
applicationName="/" />
<add name="MyCustomProfile"
type="System.Web.Profile.SqlProfileProvider"
connectionStringName="ConString_SQLConnectionString"
applicationName="/"
table="MyProfileTable_Employees" />
</providers>
<properties>
<group name ="MyProfileInfo">
<add name="FirstName" type="string" defaultValue="[null]" customProviderData="FirstName;nvarchar" provider="MyCustomProfile" />
<add name="LastName" type="string" defaultValue="[null]" customProviderData="LastName;nvarchar" provider="MyCustomProfile" />
<add name="EmployeeNumber" type="int" defaultValue="[null]" customProviderData="EmployeeNumber;int" provider="MyCustomProfile" />
</group>
</properties>
</profile>
I have the table "MyProfileTable_Employees" poplulated with data the 'userid' matches to the aspnet_Users table. In my web application (vb), when I type in Profile.MyProfileInfo, there are no custom fields. Actually, when I type profile., there are no profile related entries. What am I missing here? Am I miss-interpting what a custom profile provider is?
So I'm using the CreateUserWizard tool, which is working great, and have added a few custom fields to the user's Profile, which is also working great... with one exception. The fields that I'm capturing from TextBoxes are being saved to the database perfectly. But those I'm trying to capture from DropDownLists aren't being saved. No error is taking place, either in my code or at runtime, but no data is being written to the table from these particular fields.
I thought I knew how to capture data from a DropDownList in ASP.NET (I'm a newbie, but not ridiculously so), but I've tried a bunch of stuff here and nothing seems to be working. I'm posting an abbreviated version of my CreateUserWizard1_CreatedUser function below, with comments...
protected void CreateUserWizard1_CreatedUser(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
//Get the profile of the user by finding the profile by name
TextBox oUserName = (TextBox)CreateUserWizard1.CreateUserStep.ContentTemplateContainer.FindControl("UserName");

I am logged in as user1, and while creating a user in which I have additional information which would store first and last name into the profile database. I have the following code

But because I just have profile like that, it is updating the profile of user1 not the new user i just created

I have set up the Profile correctly in the web.config file, however I can not use them in the Home Controller.ie: I have a property called FirstName I can not fetch that property and or set a value to it.I added System.Web.

I am working in a Silverlight 4 + RIA Services application. On the server side I am using Entity Framework and SQL Server. The user authentication is performed in the application using the default ASP.NET Membership Provider.
I am also using some profile properties to store some user preferences. Unfortunately I came across a situation where I have to change one of this properties in all users.
Altought I am using EF to manage data persistence, the ASP Membership provider tables are not in my entities diagram, since everything I must do regarding membership is performed using the objects available on the provider.
So I was thinking to use this objects to change the user prefrences, but my question is about what happens if something fails? Is there any transaction object I could use on the Membership objects to perform an atomic operation?
I know EF supports transactions, but in this case I would have to add the asp.net membership tables to my diagram.. only for that operation.
I want to use Profile Properties to keep some user information and move them between pages. I'm wondering if those profile properties are keeping data session based or when I assigned them is it same for all sessions/ Is this a safe method to use them:
<anonymousIdentification enabled="true"/>
<profile enabled="true">
<properties>
<add name="userid" defaultValue="" />
<add name="password" defaultValue="" />
<add name="username" defaultValue="" />
</properties>
</profile>
i have defined profile properties in my web config file but unable to access them in code behind. even profile object is not available. i have to writer fully qualified name like System.Web.Profile. below is my web config
<profile>
I'm being stupid but don't know what I'm missing.I want to use asp.net profile and have a profile property.So in the webconfig for my site I've added:
<profile>
<properties>
<add name="Name"/>

</profile>
But in the code behind a page I cannot use Profile.Visual Studio is just saying the Profile is not known in the current context.Thus I cannot do
Profile.Name = ....
or
x = Profile.GetPropertyValue(....)

I want it to be flexible so that any one can change the value in the properties window.

In my application, I use nested master pages. In the main.master which is the top level, all encompossing master page, I have some properties. I want to set the value of this property from a user control embedded into the page which is using master page which is embedded into main.master. To clarify further, here's the hierarchy
main.master
content.master
some_page.aspx
myUserControl.ascx
The property is mpProperty1 which is in main.master. How do I access and set the value of this property from my user control?
