    Setting Custom property witin MembershipProvider

    How to set a custom property of a member with the new API?

    I have a very simply custom MembershipProvider like

    public class customMembershipProvider: umbraco.providers.members.UmbracoMembershipProvider{
....
...
 MembershipUser member = Membership.GetUser(username);
    if (member == null)
    {
      member = Membership.CreateUser(username, password, email);
      Roles.AddUserToRole(member.UserName, DEFAULT_MEMBER_GROUP);
      // the above works fine, but setting property wont work:
     member.SetProperty("customproperty", "hello");
 ----^
..
}

    throws System.Web.Security.MembershipUser' does not contain a definition for 'SetProperty'

    Also tried:

    member.MemberProperties.Find(x => x.Alias == "customProperty").Value = "hello";

    without success, as it complains no such method MemberProperties.

    Any ideas on how to set a custom property of a member just created?

    Hi Keilo,

    We use the MemberService to update/create our members.

    Here is some example code that works for us using the memberservice

    var service = ApplicationContext.Current.Services.MemberService;
            var member = service.GetById(memberId);

            if (member == null)
            {
                return false;
            }

            member.SetValue("Adddress", "address string goes here");

            service.Save(member);

    You can find the memberservice docs here : https://our.umbraco.org/documentation/Reference/Management/Services/MemberService
