Email Newly Registered Users An Activation Email With An Activation Link
May 16, 2010
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.

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?

CREATE TABLE Member
(
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 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.

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.

Doing an activation link that the user will press to activate an account. What i wanted to ask is, the link will go to a page and it will hit the sql server to find out if it's valid.Now what i'm afraid of is that some boot can send thousands of get's in the page, forcing the sql to be active with useless data. So is there a way to protect against this? I was thinking the "lock ip" trick i did to stop users trying to log in to a site many times. Any other suggestions are welcome. Some other think also.I use a try catch in case of a get with not or wrong data.Will this affect the site in general? I mean i don't really care if someone post an invalid get and wait for the try catch, but does this affect the performance of the site in general or a session takes the memory by default and ignore any try catching that s stalling the page.

I've run into a problem with WCF REST Service. I get:
Could not load type 'System.ServiceModel.Activation.HttpHandler' from assembly 'System.ServiceModel, Version=3.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=b77a5c561934e089'.
when running inside of the IIS in an ASP.NET 4.0 AppPool.
The problem seems to occur only if:Running inside of IIS
When ASP.NET Comaptibility is enabled
Running in Cassini - no problem it works properly. Running with ASP.NET compatibility off - no problem it works.
It appears that it's some sort of handler version conflict trying to instantiate the wrong version of the handler that in turn tries to load an older version of System.ServiceModel, but I haven't been able to trace this down.
Anybody seen anything like this before and have any ideas how to track this down further?
I've looked in ApplicationHost.config and the master web.config files for System.ServiceModel and HttpHandler references but no luck.

I am trying to test emails using the local PickupDirectory. The code seems to work only in that an email is send to the local directory, but it appears like this: [URL] ....
Where it says 'Please click....here..', the 'here' should be a link.
This is the code I have:
Code:
Protected Sub SendPost_Click(ByVal sender As Object, e As System.EventArgs) Handles SendPost.Click
Dim SMTPMail As New System.Net.Mail.MailMessage()
Dim sbody As New StringBuilder()
sbody.Append("Please click <a href='http://usingasp.net/reset_pwd.aspx'>here</a> to reset your password")
[Code] ....
How can I rectify that?
