Hi Connie,

If want some thing that says you are logged in as Your name then you should take a look at the built in Login Status Razor code snippet.

@inherits Umbraco.Web.Macros.PartialViewMacroPage

@using System.Web.Mvc.Html
@using ClientDependency.Core.Mvc
@using Umbraco.Web
@using Umbraco.Web.Models
@using Umbraco.Web.Controllers

@{
    var loginStatusModel = Members.GetCurrentLoginStatus();

    Html.EnableClientValidation();
    Html.EnableUnobtrusiveJavaScript();
    Html.RequiresJs("/umbraco_client/ui/jquery.js");
    Html.RequiresJs("/umbraco_client/Application/JQuery/jquery.validate.min.js");
    Html.RequiresJs("/umbraco_client/Application/JQuery/jquery.validate.unobtrusive.min.js");

    var logoutModel = new PostRedirectModel();

    @*
        Here you can specify a redirect URL for after logging out, by default umbraco will simply
        redirect to the current page. Example to redirect to the home page:

        logoutModel.RedirectUrl = "/"; 
    *@
}

@* NOTE: This RenderJsHere code should be put on your main template page where the rest of your script tags are placed *@
@Html.RenderJsHere()

@if (loginStatusModel.IsLoggedIn)
{
    <p>You are currently logged in as @loginStatusModel.Name</p>

    using (Html.BeginUmbracoForm<UmbLoginStatusController>("HandleLogout"))
    {
         <fieldset>
             <legend>Logout</legend>
             <button>Logout</button>
         </fieldset>

        @Html.HiddenFor(m => logoutModel.RedirectUrl)
    }
}

Hope this helps,

/Dennis

Hi, Connie.

The most succinct approach I've found is to use the Umbraco MembershipHelper (see the documentation here).

Your code in the view might look something like this:

@if (Members.IsLoggedIn())
{
    <p>You are logged in as @Members.GetCurrentMemberProfileModel().Name</p>
}

Where Members is a reference that automatically ships with your UmbracoViewPage.
