    Current logged in user

    I'd like to show the user id of the currently logged in user : I can get their name 

    // logged in?
            var wrapper = new HttpContextWrapper(HttpContext.Current);
            var ticket = wrapper.GetUmbracoAuthTicket();
            isLoggedIn = 0;
            sessionId = "";
            if (ticket!=null){
                if(ticket.GetRemainingAuthSeconds() > 0){
                    isLoggedIn = 1;
                }
                loggedInUsername = ticket.Name.ToString();
                sessionId = wrapper.Session.SessionID.ToString();
            }else{
                loggedInUsername = "";
            }

    but I'd also like to get their user id so I can store extra user into in a separate database and look it up on the page.

    I did try

    @Umbraco.GetCurrentUmbracoUser().Id

    but I think that's from an older version of Umbraco as it crashed Umbraco 7.4

    Have you tried: var user = Umbraco.Web.UmbracoContext.Current.Security.CurrentUser;? :)

    Doesn't work

    Compiler Error Message: CS1061: 'Umbraco.Web.UmbracoHelper' does not contain a definition for 'Web' and no extension method 'Web' accepting a first argument of type 'Umbraco.Web.UmbracoHelper' could be found (are you missing a using directive or an assembly reference?)

    No I need to be 'using' another namespace or is it no longer available in 7.4?

    Hmm, are you doing this from a View?

    This should work:

    using Umbraco.Core.Security;
using Umbraco.Core.Models.Membership;

var authenticationTicket = new HttpContextWrapper(HttpContext.Current).GetUmbracoAuthTicket();
IUser user = null;
if (authenticationTicket != null)
{
    user = UmbracoContext.Current.Application.Services.UserService.GetByUsername(authenticationTicket.Name);
}
else
{
    // not logged into backoffice
}

// use it if not null
if(user != null)
{
    var name = user.Name;
}

    Yes but user.Name returns their name not id.

    Try user.Id instead then. :)

    I thought I had guessed that and it hadn't worked, but tried again and it has - that''s it!

    Thanks for your help
