    Custom Membership Provider string breaking macros

    I'm trying implement a custom membership provider to authenticate against an AD. I've created a login system to access the Umbraco membership system that works fine but as soon as I add another membership provider string in to the web.config file the macros fail with an "Error loading MacroEngine" message.

    Even in a macro that simply displays the current member name, the error message occurs.

    Any thoughts would be much appreciated, quite stuck on this!

    Further investigation has shown it's to do with the type of membership provider. The current string is:

    <add name="MyADMembershipProvider" type="System.Web.Security.ActiveDirectoryMembershipProvider, System.Web, Version=4.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=b03f5f7f11d50a3a" />

    If I change the type to "umbraco.providers.members.UmbracoMembershipProvider" to duplicate the Umbraco membership provider it works fine. The original string is taken straight from a tutorial online (http://thegrayzone.co.uk/blog/2012/07/combined-authentication-with-umbraco/) so not quite sure why it's not working!
