I've recently implemented a custom member Membership and Role provider.
In v5.1, while the backoffice correctly displays and searches members from the custom Membership provider, the role provider appears to have no effect. The only items available in the member groups tree are those from the hive.
This roleprovider *did* work in 4.x
I initially suspected that there was a failure, however, there are no errors in the log. If it's failing, it's doing so silently. (And conversely, I can confirm that the membership provider, when it failed, did so loudly.)
When I started digging, a search of the umbracosource makes it look like GetAllRoles() isn't even implemented in umbraco's MemberRoleProvider.
So: are custom role providers no longer supported? If not, what is the preferred implementation for custom member roles?
Umbraco 5.1 roleprovider support
