Hi Alex

Excellent that spits them out from members! Is it possible to find the members which are of a custom type? I created a few custom types IT member, Accounts member and in there I have a custom tab called Details and here I have properties called First Name, Surname, Email and Phone. Is it possible to pull this data? And alphabetise it?

Thanks. :)

Hi Tony.

I think that you should have a look at the MemberService documentation. You can find the different methods here: https://our.umbraco.org/DOCUMENTATION/Reference/Management-v6/Services/MemberService

Hope this helps,

There few methods in the MemberService:

• GetMembersByGroup()
• GetMembersByMemberType()
• GetMembersByPropertyValue()

You can use one of them, and ugly but:

• GetAllMembers().Where(member => member.ContentTypeAlias.Equals("YouMemberTypeAlias"))

Thanks, Alex

Hi Guys

Thanks for the suggestions

I've tried a few methods like

@foreach (var member in ApplicationContext.Current.Services.MemberService.GetMembersByMemberType("IT Member")) { @member.Email

    }

At least it compiles, though it returns nothing. I think the foreach is finding the member type and Email is not a type so it returns nothing? Am I along the right path? So to find Email we need to get to the layer below member type as Email is a property of the Details tab on the ITMember type. Phew! Does that make sense?

Thanks.

Tony, maybe it's wrong membertype name ? or alias ?

Alex

It was the wrong member type, but it's only finding the standard Child items: Name, Email, Username (Last edited won't work - probably because it's two words!). I'm looking for the custom fields as one of them in phone number....

Thanks. Tony

Tony, custom fields are retrieving by method GetValue()

var phone = member.GetValue("phone");

Thanks, Alex

Hi Alex

That's deadly! I forgot one last thing, is there a way to .OrderBy and order them alphabetically according to name? I couldn't find a method in Dennis' list of methods?

Thanks.

Tony

Something like that :

ApplicationContext.Current.Services.MemberService.GetMembersByMemberType("IT Member").OrderBy(member => member.Name);

Excellent stuff! Sorted! Thanks a lot.
