Hi Filipe,

On the frontend of the website the user would be null, in the Umbraco backoffice you would be able to get a proper user.

Cheers, Ruben

Hi @Filipe Sousa, how did you managed to add DelegatingHandler in umbraco 8. I am struggling to migrate my code from v7 to v8 for custom delegatinghandler.

Hi @Filipe Sousa,

There is also a difference between trying to a User (an Umbraco CMS user) and a Member (like a user that is logged in to the frontend of the website). The former will not be resolved with "contextReference.UmbracoContext.Security.CurrentUser", while the latter can be resolved like this.

Cheers, Ruben

Filipe, you can try the following to get the current user:

var wrapper = new HttpContextWrapper(HttpContext.Current);
var currentUserObj = wrapper.GetCurrentIdentity(true);

Hope it helps.

Hello, Enkosi

it's not working in Umbraco v11. any other solution are there?

Hi Shivani, here's one way of doing it:

public class ContentSavingHandler : INotificationHandler<ContentSavingNotification>
{
    public ContentSavingHandler(IHttpContextAccessor httpContextAccessor)
    {
        HttpContextAccessor = httpContextAccessor;
    }

    private readonly IHttpContextAccessor HttpContextAccessor;

    public void Handle(ContentSavingNotification notification)
    {
        var services = HttpContextAccessor.HttpContext.RequestServices;
        var memberManager = services.GetRequiredService<IMemberManager>();
        MemberIdentityUser currentMember = memberManager.GetCurrentMemberAsync()?.Result;
    }
}

is working on a reply...
