View 2 RepliesI m trying to use the profile system to get information of the authenticated user form the data base, just like the session system : the user is authenticated then I set same variable with information of this user coming from data base !I am familiar with PHP so i m trying to do it like that !Also, i woul like to join my own data base and the asp.net membership database !
View 1 RepliesI'm currently developing a web site that will make heavy use of asp.net membership. (Using Umbraco, but that just uses the regular asp.net membership provider).I want to store some extended information about a user and I'm considering if I should store the information in the profile or in a custom table. Is there any pros / cons to any specific method? Some properties like payment details are more natural to place in the profile, on the other hand, a transaction log seems less natural residing in the user profile (IMHO). Any thoughts on this?
View 2 RepliesI have the membership provider and the create user with tow steps, one of the steps contains a custom registration form, for each created user data will be in the database, and there is an account page shows the data that the new created user did insert during the registration process on the custom registration page,
the problem, when the user is created and logged into his account page, this account page shows only the information for the first created user, not the info on the logged in user , but the logged in user data still saved in database and not showing on his account page?
This is web.confg code:
<?xml version="1.0"?>
I have recently came across one of your article that uses TwitterAPI. The link is given below. My question is, can I use this for my application authenticating against twitter? If so, how can I access user's personal details like Name, Country, DOB, Email etc.?

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 need to know how to change aspnetdb to store profile information unique to each user so that I can restrict records in an sql table to only show that user's records.
So if I make a "companyID" int, identity column where would I put it?
Also, when I write the where clause to companyID = profile (companyID) would that work?
I am new to asp.net's membership controls. I am trying to figure out how to make a public profile page that will display information about a site member to other users. I thought I would be able to use the profile class and just pass in a parameter such as user name. But I tried:
Profile.GetProfile("username")
'Where username = name of profile I want to retrieve
Response.Write(Profile.Title)
Response.Write(Profile.Company)
However, if the user is logged in this codee just brings back their details, not those of the username requested. What am I doing wrong?

View 1 RepliesDo I just need to make a field for account type in my user account table? In a technical way, if(account type = admin) then the account would log as admin; otherwise, a user with less privileges.
View 7 RepliesI am using profile services to store some attributes of users registered in the website. Now I am making a display profile page for a user.

I was wondering if a user logs in using the login controller for asp.net, how do I display the users information in a "My Account" page. Do I simply do that through C# and SQL? Is there something that gets stored when a user logins already so I can return the username anywhere in the project?
View 3 RepliesI am useing asp.net membership to store my users and under each users profile there is a field for their supervisor. I would like to get a list of all the users with the supervisor "Jon Doe". Is there an easy way to do this or would I just have to loop through each user and see if there supervisor = "Jon Doe" then if it is store there username in a list?
View 1 RepliesIn my application I am using the aspnetdb membership for authorizing users. I created a new table UserProfiles that will hold their profile information. The UserID is linked to aspnet_users UserID with a foreign key. One of the columns in the table represent CompanyID (int). I want to be able to restrict logged in users to only see records from their company based on the CompanyID. There can be more than one user with the same CompanyID to the UserID would not work. I can restrict their access by UsedID to only see records they created by using code behind:
[Code]....
and my select statement is:

How would be the best way to restrict the selected data to UserProfiles.CompanyID?
I have a site I'm working on where the values being stored in user profiles can change so I need to iterate through all available profile options and display them (say in a label or gridview for instance). Here is an example of a web.config I threw together

I'm authenticating my users using the following code for the login event:

Everything works great so far. Next thing that I need to do is add additional user information to the forms authentication ticket using user profile. When I try to add it right after the login code above, I end up getting an error message about anonymous profile. On the other hand, HttpContext.Profile is read only and doesn't seem to work. Is there any workaround for this?
I have created a custom user creation wizard to store custom user information, This is working fine. I am now trying to create a new page to give the newly created user to create users in there own company, so i need to retrieve the company information from the user profile created and automaticlly fill that information into the new create user wizard. ie User from A company logs in. (company_id from profile is stored in session)
User A wants to make another user in company A (but cannot make a user in company B) User A fills in details for new user, Company A information is autofill into new user info. (possibly from session)
I have read alot about storing membership. info into session but i cannot find any code examples of how to do this. I need to find a way to store Company_id into session and then use that for creating a new user with the same Company_id.
I have not been able to save any profile information? All the tutorials seem straightforward but nothing works.

If I am using the default profile provider, why won't this work?
I'm trying to use both the default Membership and Profile Providers and can not for the life of me get both to work at the same time. I'm using MS Visual Web Developer 2010 Express and when I create a new Project I get access to the Membership but not the Profile. When I create a new Website I get just the opposite i.e. access to Profile and not Membership. What do I need to do to get access to both?
View 2 RepliesI have been searching all over for this and trying many different things but so far have had no luck. I need to display the profile information for [all] users in the system within a GridView. For instance, I want to show their Username, First Name, Last Name,Email, etc.I've tried the Profilemanager.GetAllProfiles() method but t doesn't seem to have the fields in it.
View 2 RepliesI have a web application which uses membership and profiles. I successfully used the WebProfileBuilder extension, so my profile class is correctly generated, and is working nicely. However, after a new request of my client, I need now to move that profile management part into another assembly (so I'd be able to get profile information in a windows service running on the same machine).
What I made is created the new assembly, moved my generated profile file, and tried to use it from the other assembly, but without any success. I always get a SettingsPropertyNotFoundException. My thought is that the profile system doesn't know where to find its connection information, so I tried to add the connectionstring and provider in the app.config of this assembly, but this doesn't seem to work.
I am using asp.net 3.5 and Oracle Providers for membership and roles. Now, using CreateUserWizard i can make user register here but for storing custom information like First name, last name, address etc. i am using couple of custom oracle tables instead of Oracle Profile Provider. In this case, i am using the USERID field which is of GUID type as primary key. Now, my problem is that i dont know how to draw information from my custom oracle tables for those users who are currently logged in. I have searched a lot in this forum and elsewhere where there are many topics relating to it but i failed to follow any of them. So, i would request you to kindly guide me to solve the issue.
