Hi,

I am trying to create a member with the following code.  What currently happens is that the member will be created in the database put an exception is thrown on the line [_member.getProperty("FirstName").Value = FirstName.Text;] as getProperty seems to return null.

I have a FirstName property on the "Subscriber" member type in a Tab called personal details but for some reason this is not getting picked up by Umbraco.

Thanks in advance,

B

        public void Create()
        {
            MemberType memberType = MemberType.GetByAlias(MemberTypeConstants.Subscriber);
            MemberGroup memberGroup = MemberGroup.GetByName(MemberGroupConstants.RetirementSavingPlanner);

            _member = Member.MakeNew(EmailAddress.Text, memberType, new umbraco.BusinessLogic.User(0)); _member.Email = EmailAddress.Text;
           
            _member.Password = Password.Text;
            _member.LoginName = EmailAddress.Text;
           
            // Generate member Xml Cache
            _member.XmlGenerate(new System.Xml.XmlDocument());
            _member.getProperty("FirstName").Value = FirstName.Text;
            _member.getProperty("LastName").Value = LastName.Text;           

            _member.AddGroup(memberGroup.Id);

            _member.Save();

        }
