    How to check if username or email exist in db?

    Hi,

    I made a usercontrol that creates a member and it works great, when the username and/or email doesn't exist in the db before... I searched our, but I can't figure out how to check if username or email exist in the db... so a pointer would be nice! :)

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

    protected void sendButton_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)

    {

     

    MemberType mt = MemberType.GetByAlias("DemoUsers");

     

    //create a member

     

    Member m = Member.MakeNew(usernameTextBox.Text, mt, new umbraco.BusinessLogic.User(0));

     

     

    m.Password = passwordTextBox.Text;

    m.Email = emailTextBox.Text;

     

    //Generate member Xml Cache

    m.XmlGenerate(

    new System.Xml.XmlDocument());

     

    //Save member

    m.Save();

    }

    Thanks,

    Anette

    Anette, 

     

    You could use the standard asp.net membership functions for that, check the wiki for details

    Btw, you should also create members via the membership api rather than the member api.

     

    Hope this helps.

    Regards,

    /Dirk

    Anette try this:

    Member memberExists = Member.GetMemberFromLoginName(ctrlTextBoxEmail.Text);
    bool valid = (memberExists == null);
    if(valid){
      doSomeThing();
    }
