I have a website which for some reason is duplicating the member when a new
one is created. The member is being created by using the default .net
Membership.CreateUser function. Both members have the exact same properties
(login name, email etc…) but the member ID is different. If you then try to
delete the member (through the Umbraco interface) with highest id it actually
deletes the member with the 1st ID.
This only seems to happen to some members – not all of them. The only thing
which I believe could be the cause is that in the AfterSave event I’m checking
to see if the member belongs to a particular group, if they do then I’m using a
3rd party API to subscribe them to a mailing list. Is it likely that
if that API didn’t respond in a timely manner that Umbraco would create a new
member?
Has anyone ever experienced this before?
Thanks, and any advice at this point will help me out!
Thanks for that I'll give it ago using the Umbraco API and let you know if the problem persists. I deliberately reframed from doing this as they were marked as obsolete.
So I've changed the code to the Umbraco member API using Member.MakeNew, and it is still duplicating the member. It still happens at completley random intervals and I cannot replicate the error myself.
I wonder if anyone has any idea as to why this is happening. In case I'm missing something obvious please see my code below.
After a lot of playing around yesterday i discovered that the issue was not Umbraco duplicating the member, but the click event on the user control was being fired twice. It seems that it was just IE10 doing this when clicking on asp:button tags. I originally had my asp:buttons tags setup to render as:
<button> <span>hello</span> </button>
instead of the default <input /> element. Having chaged that back to an input element it resolves the issue.
I hope that may be of some help in future to others....
Members being duplicated when adding new ones
Hi guys,

By the way I'm using v4.11.4
Hello,
I haven't used the default .net Membership.CreateUser, but the Umbraco Member API is also much better for this. Even though it reports being obsolete it's actually not and the obsolete messages are even removed in newer versions again: https://github.com/umbraco/Umbraco-CMS/commit/7c6aee17e90d4b59a29cbcabf915475510c072c7
So it might be better to try using the Umbraco Member API and see if it still happens than.

Here is a cheatsheet on how to use the Member API: http://our.umbraco.org/wiki/reference/api-cheatsheet/working-with-members

MemberType mt = MemberType.GetByAlias("Customer");User u = new User(0);
Member umbMember = Member.MakeNew(Name.Text + ' ' + Surname.Text, email, email, mt, u);
umbMember.Password = password;
umbMember.getProperty("firstname").Value = Name.Text;
umbMember.getProperty("surname").Value = Surname.Text;
umbMember.getProperty("companyName").Value = Company.Text;
umbMember.getProperty("telephoneNumber").Value = Telephone.Text;
umbMember.getProperty("jobTitle").Value = JobTitle.Text;
umbMember.getProperty("country").Value = Country.SelectedItem.Text;
umbMember.Save();
Has noone else ever experienced this issue?
