Hi Kamal,

That is certainly possible with Umbraco. From your code snippet I see that you have already created a member type. This meber type is what holds the custom properties for your member. You can add extra properties to the member type exactly as you would with a document type.

So having created a property "Mobile", "Street", "Suburb", "City" etc with the alias "mobileAlias" etc. you can set the values using

m.getProperty("mobileAlias").Value = txtMobile.Text

then remember to save your user m.Save();

Having said all that Umbraco uses ASP.NETs membership provider so while your methods are perfectly fine (for now) you are encouraged to use Membership.CreateUser() etc in the System.Web.Security namespace. Take a look at this link http://our.umbraco.org/wiki/how-tos/membership-providers

As for the prefered way to handle profiles Aaron Powell wrote this article which you might find useful. As I said the way you are doing it will work fine but those methods have been deprecated.

cheers

Thanks alot for reply, Its really helpful for me.

i am new to umbraco, so can u explain me in detail, like:

if i use Membership.CreateUser() as i checked in our.umbraco.org/wiki/how-tos/membership-providers, where i will pass these lines of code          

and also:

m.getProperty("mobileAlias").Value = txtMobile.Text (those custom property)

Hope u understand my query..

Hi Kamal,

When you use Membership.CreateUser() by default the MemberType is picked up from the web.config file. If you look in there you will find something like the extract below:

<membership defaultProvider="UmbracoMembershipProvider" userIsOnlineTimeWindow="15">

      <providers>

        <clear />

        <add name="UmbracoMembershipProvider" type="umbraco.providers.members.UmbracoMembershipProvider" enablePasswordRetrieval="false" enablePasswordReset="true" requiresQuestionAndAnswer="false" defaultMemberTypeAlias="YOUR MEMBER TYPE" passwordFormat="Hashed" />

        <add name="UsersMembershipProvider" type="umbraco.providers.UsersMembershipProvider" enablePasswordRetrieval="false" enablePasswordReset="false" requiresQuestionAndAnswer="false" passwordFormat="Hashed" />

      </providers>

    </membership>

You just need to set the default member type to the alias of your member type

To add a member to a group you can use this line of code

Roles.AddUserToRole(email, "YOUR MEMBER GROUP NAME");

As for setting the property I can't really explain the ASP.NET profile provider any better than Aaron did in the link that I mentioned in my previous post. He gives a complete example in that post.

If that seems like too much hard work you could use a kind of hybrid method where you revert to the Umbraco API to set the properties although this was kind of the point of using the ASP.NET providers in the first place.An example of this would be

var email = txtEmail.Text;

var member = Membership.GetUser(email);

if (member == null)

 {

        //the member does not already exist

        member = Membership.CreateUser(txtUsername.Text, txtPassword.Text, email);

        if (member != null)

       {

             //add the member to the correct role

              Roles.AddUserToRole(email, "Allowed");

             Member umbracoMember = new Member((int)member.ProviderUserKey);

             if (umbracoMember != null)

             {

                  //save the custom property

                  umbracoMember.getProperty("custom").Value = txtCustom.Text;

                  umbracoMember.Save();

               }

       }

     }

is working on a reply...
