Hi all, I am new to Umbraco and fairly new to MVC. Loving Umbraco but I am very stuck on creating a member.

I am using the register member snippet, I have added some A title & First name / surname to my member type. The Title value will not save from the drop down list no matter what I do. I have made a custom editor as per the comments in the snippet.

Custom Editor Code:

@using System.Collections @using Umbraco.Core; @using Umbraco.Core.Composing.CompositionExtensions @using Umbraco.Core.Models; @using Umbraco.Core.Services; @using Umbraco.Core.Services; @using Umbraco.Core.PropertyEditors; @using Umbraco.Core.Services.Implement @using Umbraco.Forms.Core.Providers.FieldTypes

@{

IDataTypeService dataTypeService = Umbraco.Core.Composing.Current.Services.DataTypeService;
// Change number to id of your custom values (We should change this to get them by name and wrap it in to a class)
IDataType dataType = dataTypeService.GetDataType(1119);
ValueListConfiguration preValues = (ValueListConfiguration)dataType.Configuration;

List<SelectListItem> items = new List<SelectListItem>();


foreach (ValueListConfiguration.ValueListItem item in preValues.Items)
{

    items.Add(new SelectListItem { Text = Convert.ToString(item.Value), Value = Convert.ToString(item.Id) });

}

}

@* @{

foreach (ValueListConfiguration.ValueListItem item in preValues.Items)
{
    <option value="@Convert.ToString(item.Id)">@item.Value</option>
}

} @* @{ foreach (ValueListConfiguration.ValueListItem item in preValues.Items) { <option value="@Convert.ToString(item.Id)">@item.Value</option> } } *@

And here is the main signup view

          @if (registerModel.MemberProperties != null)
        {
            @*
                It will only displays properties marked as "Member can edit" on the "Info" tab of the Member Type.
            *@
            for (var i = 0; i < registerModel.MemberProperties.Count; i++)
            {
                @Html.LabelFor(m => registerModel.MemberProperties[i].Value, registerModel.MemberProperties[i].Name)
                @Html.HiddenFor(m => registerModel.MemberProperties[i].Alias)
                @*
                    By default this will render a textbox but if you want to change the editor template for this property you can
                    easily change it. For example, if you wanted to render a custom editor for this field called "MyEditor" you would
                    create a file at ~/Views/Shared/EditorTemplates/MyEditor.cshtml", then you will change the next line of code to
                    render your specific editor template like:
                    @Html.EditorFor(m => registerModel.MemberProperties[i].Value, "MyEditor")
                *@

                if (registerModel.MemberProperties[i].Alias == "title")
                {
                    @Html.EditorFor(m => registerModel.MemberProperties[i].Value, "MemberTitleSelect", new { id = registerModel.MemberProperties[i].Value })
                    @Html.HiddenFor(m => registerModel.MemberProperties[i].Alias)


                }
                else
                {
                    @Html.EditorFor(m => registerModel.MemberProperties[i].Value)
                    @Html.HiddenFor(m => registerModel.MemberProperties[i].Alias)
                }

                <br />
            }
        }

        @Html.HiddenFor(m => registerModel.MemberTypeAlias)
        @Html.HiddenFor(m => registerModel.RedirectUrl)
        @Html.HiddenFor(m => registerModel.UsernameIsEmail)

        <button>Register</button>
    </fieldset>
}

Can anybody please help me? everything saves apart from the dropdown list, sometimes after testing it, I cant load the members module in the umbraco back office because it errors saying it convert string to int, I have tried various combinations. Of course if I create the member in umbraco it saves the title.

Any help would be greatly appreciated

EDIT** The Select box is being messed up by the Forum it should look like this.

@* @{ foreach (ValueListConfiguration.ValueListItem item in preValues.Items) { <option value="@Convert.ToString(item.Id)">@item.Value</option> } } </select>*@ Obviously I have tried it a few ways. Many thanks for any help
