    Logging a member in after changing his login

    Using Umbraco 7

    Hello,

    I've created a profile page in which a member can update their info. However when a member changes their email (which we use as login), this user is immediately logged out and has to log in again with the new email.

    How can I log this member in programmatically?

    Members.Login(<username>, <password>)

    won't work in this instance as I cannot retrieve the plain text version of the password. When creating a member you get this from you form. In this case it's an existing user.

    Help much appreciated.

    Hi Giovanni,

    What authentication method are you using ? If it's Forms you have to add new auth Cookies for username.

    FormsAuthentication.SetAuthCookie(username, true);

    Thanks, Alex
