Security :: Deactivating User Roles Automatically When Email Activation Is Clicked?
Oct 8, 2010
I know this is a simple fix but here's my register.aspx.vb and activation.aspx.vb codes. Its given an ordinary user unauthorized permissions after activation from email link which when clicked, approves and logs them in.
Protected Sub RegisterUser_CreatedUser(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As EventArgs) Handles RegisterUser.CreatedUser
FormsAuthentication.SignOut()
If _group IsNot Nothing Then
I was wondering if someone can direct me to a good quality tutorial on the process of registering and sending an activation link to the user's email address. I can't seem to find any useful tutorials online!
I've been programming with VB for a little over 2 years, however have never had any formal education. So the extent of my education is as follows:
I want to know how to do a mouseover for an image on my webpage, I look online for someone who's done it in VB and I try and duplicate their code and then play with it until I get the results I want.
So as you can see there is a wealth of VB coding that simply escapes me because I just haven't desired to include it or needed to include different aspects of VB in my programs / web developments. What I want now is big enough that so far (one week of online searches) I've uncovered no site or forum that has given me a tutorial on how to go about implementing what I want into my Microsoft Web Development project. The old sources for information are only good for one or two aspects of a coding procedure, not an entire overhaul of my current .aspx files. Not to mention a bias towards hard coding in pure <html>, I get a lot of that when someone doesn't have the patients to address my question.
When I created my new project it automatically populated an Accounts folder with a Changepassword.aspx, Changepasswordsuccess.aspx, registration.aspx, and Login.aspx. I've successfully prevent the program from logging in the user after they register with a simple " ' " before an authentication line in the registration.vb code; however, the login.vb code and the login.design.vb code is simple beyond me, and I've yet to find a site that spells it out for me.
I've created an online test. However, the intent is to have the users only take the test once, thus after they register with their email address I want my site to send them an email with an account activation link. Once they click on this link by visiting their inbox they can then take the test.
Newb question: what is the standard practice for assigning roles to newly signed-on members. Is it usually manual or is there a way of automatically assigning roles. Being completely new to this, I am confronted by the issue of my site having three different roles that new members could fall into, but am unsure about how to assign each a role. I can't imagine having to go through the process manually if I have thousands of members.
I want to send a confirmation email to the user after they register to my website. I am using CreateUserWizard of .NET and I use C#.
My idea is after users register they get an email with a link. If they click the link, they will come to an activation page. I have done this so far:
Register.aspx:
[Code]....
[Code]....
After Guid userId = (Guid)user.ProviderUserKey;
I am very confused and not sure what to do. I understand that i need to email an url with the userID to user's email upon registration, but how to do this, and when user clicks that url in that email, how that url will automatically come to activation page?
how can i implement new user Email verification in regsitration form. It should be like, when user clicks on Submit button, an email sent to the user email id with an autogenerated code and a redirect link ..
I am trying to do the following:1- Have the user select a date from a calendar.2- When that date comes, an email is sent automatically to the user.3- The web application is on a server.Does anyone have code in place that does this already. I was referred to the following articles below, would they solve my problem??. This the first time I tackle a problem like this.[URL]
I tried googling this and have had no luck. I would like to implement membership roles without any reference to email accounts or smtp. Does anyone have information on this topic?
I want to activate or deactivate user using checkbox inside gridview , i am checking if it is deactive then activate and active then deactive them, this code is working fine for activating user but it not deactivating user
protected void Button1_Click(object sender, EventArgs e) { con.Open(); OleDbCommand cmd = new OleDbCommand("SELECT uid, nallow FROM registration WHERE (usertype = 'Paid user')", con); OleDbDataReader red = cmd.ExecuteReader(); if (red.Read()) { Session["set"] = red["nallow"].ToString();
( memberID int IDENTITY (2480,39) PRIMARY KEY, memberName nvarchar(70) NOT NULL, password nvarchar(30) NOT NULL, eMail nvarchar(100) NOT NULL, notify bit NOT NULL, isActive bit NOT NULL, lastLogin datetime DEFAULT GetDate(), dateCreated datetime DEFAULT GetDate() NOT NULL );
Once user fill registration form that consists of:
memberName, password, email and check/uncheck notify box then click submit. The values will be stored in the above table with isActive equals to False. Email will be sent to user for activation, once activated, isActive will equal to true. 1. How can i send an activation link to the email and then change isActive to True once link is clicked? I tried to solve it, i just didn't get it yet.
I found a tutorial on how to setup a user will be emailed an activation link when registering [URL]. What I want is modify it so that the email is sent to the administrators for activation.
I know there is a lot of information regardind sending activation e-mails, but I have just found information regarding the Create Wizard control, and I'm doing all the forms manually. Right now, I'm able to register a user name in a SQL Server Database, and then an e-mail is sent to this new user to the corresponding em-mail address, the columns the user has to register are:
ID Name Nickname Password (SHA1 hash) E-mail
I don't know if it is the best approach, and also, there are somethings I don't know how to do. Creating another column in the database table, then a Trigger that on insert fills that column (or just a query that fills it) with for instance "Inactive". Creating a guid code. (What is the guid? and what is it for?) In the email generated attach a link that will open the confirmation.aspx page that will run a code on load that will compare the necessary fields with the database. If the comparison is succesful the page will run a query to update acivation column from "Inactive" to "Active". When the user wants to login compare "username" "Password" and check "Activation" columns before enabling the log-in. THe thing is that I don't know is what is the guid is for, and how to use the data to embed it in the link. Because I have seen something like confirmation.aspx?username or something like that that you have to do.
How to send a registration link in email upon new event creation? there has to be some ID associated with it so that when a new user clicks on registration link a page opens up with the specific event details..
I have setup ASP security in my application. I used the following tutorial, just wondering if someone can tell me how i can setup this up to allow the creation of a user?
where to find or what to search on to find some example of how to add the option for adding users?
I have the above setup and its working, but only because of the accounts i created with my global.asax file.
I need to give the admins access to add a new user. Currently i can search on existing users and update them, but need to add the ability to add a new user.
I facing a problem here. how can I make the create user wizard category all the new user become normal user role? I have created 2 role which is Manager and Normal User. Normal User can't view the Manager page. But after i create a new user account, i can view manager and normal user page. I want to make all the new member registration will be normal user role?
I have to validate the email addresses. For that an email containing verification link is sent to the candidates while registering. By clicking the link the database will be updated with the status of email id as verified. How can I pass the username or other details of the candidates through the verification link? I am using asp.net with c# coding.
if (String.IsNullOrEmpty(Request.Params["ActivationID"])){Response.Redirect("index.html");}else{try{con.Open();string hash = Request.Params["ActivationID"];Response.Write(hash);con.Open();cmd = new SqlCommand("update userdetails set status=1 where hashid='" + hash + "'", con);cmd.ExecuteNonQuery();con.Close();Response.Write("Your account has been successfully activated. You can now login using the username and password you chose during the registration. ");
} catch{Response.Redirect("index.html");}}
But the values is passing to here [URL] .... but not working the above code
This is my senario. I want user to login and if "LoggedIn" User has more than one role then it displays the list of radio buttons. After selection of the role user gets further privilages according to the role that he has selected.
I've a problem setting up the role. And user can change his role when ever he wants.
For Example "john" is the user having two roles "Account Manager" and "Project Manager".
I want to make my domain administrators the administrators to my web application so that they are the only ones that can change content. All other users would simply be able to read the material. I am relatively new to web apps and I can not seem to find what I am looking for anywhere on the net.
Ive been exploring the tabls in the membership database to see how they are structured. If i add a new user or update an existing one i see it in the user and membership tables. But i dont understand how to use or store roles. I use the ASP.NET CONFIGURATION toll in the WEBSITE menu to create roles and create access rules, but those roles dont show up in the Roles table in the db!
Yet the roles are stored cause they keep apearing in the ASP.NET CONFIGURATION. How weird is not that? Where is it stored and how can i access it? I need to programatically check if the user who is logged in is in a certain role.
