    What is the different Member Type and Member Group

    Anyone knows what is the different MemberType and Member Group ?

    As far as I know Member Group is similar like a Role in .Net Membership provider.

    What is Member Type ? When you create member in umbraco they will ask you to choose what is the member type ? when this will be usefull  ?

     

    Thanks

    Hi,

    A membergroup is a role indeed. A membertype contains properties which is similar to a .Net Profile. This will be usefull when you want to store extra information about the member such as Department, telephone number etc. Checkout this post for more info how to use it.

    Cheers,

    Richard

    When I follow this.. I get this error This profile property has already been defined.

    After i search.. I think.. it because I declare it in properties...

    Do I need to take it in web.config because I already set it in properties ?

    <properties>
            <clear />
            <add name="Address" allowAnonymous ="false" provider="UmbracoMemberProfileProvider" type="System.String" />
          </properties>

    I still get the error
