    Retrieve a member property in Umbraco 7

    Hi,

    I'm currently trying to retrieve a custom property value for a member (e.g. "City (city), Type: Textstring"). The user can successfully login, however I'm unable to retrieve any of their information?

    The error I'm receiving on the below code is "The property "city" is not recognised".

    @ {
     var memberService = Membership.GetUser();
     var profile = System.Web.Profile.ProfileBase.Create(memberService.UserName);
     string memberCity = profile["city"].ToString();
     // string memberCity = profile.GetPropertyValue("city").ToString();
}

    Thanks for any help!

    Hi Steven,

    I am not a backend developer, but I would try to help you anyway.

    What if you are doing it this way, did it make any difference.

    @ {
         var memberService = Membership.GetUser();
         var profile = System.Web.Profile.ProfileBase.Create(memberService.UserName);
         string memberCity = profile.getProperty("city").value;
    }

    Hope this helps,

    /Dennis

    Hi Dennis,

    Unfortunately your suggestion didn't work. I get alerted that getProperty is not a recognised property.

    Thanks,

    Steven.

    Hi Steven,

    Does it any difference if you use GetProperty instead of getProperty

    Like this:

    @{
             var memberService =Membership.GetUser();
             var profile =System.Web.Profile.ProfileBase.Create(memberService.UserName);
             string memberCity = profile.GetProperty("city").value;
    }

    Or you could try this too.

    @{
             var memberService =Membership.GetUser();
             var profile =System.Web.Profile.ProfileBase.Create(memberService.UserName);
             string memberCity = profile.GetPropertyValue("city");
    }

    Hope this helps,

    /Dennis

    Hi again,

    I actually tried "GetPropertyValue" and this appeared to work, however I get the error message "The settings property 'city' was not found." It's almost as if Umbraco doesn't realise I have set this property set up. It's definitely in against the member type "Member".

    Do I need to select "Member can edit" in the member type perhaps? Or "Show on profile"?

    Thanks,

    Steven.

    No problem Dennis,

    I don't suppose you could take a look at this post?
