    Retrieve a member's login by their email address

    I'm having trouble figuring out the best way to get a user's login/username inside a SurfaceController. Members.GetByEmail(model.Email) returns an IPublishedContent object that I can cast to Member (a generated model) but neither have the username on them.

    Can anyone point me in the right direction?

    You could do

    var member = Members.GetByEmail(Model.Email);
var memberName = Membership.GetUser(member.Id).UserName;

    But I think this goes to the Database, so It could get you in trouble performancewise

    If you want the username for the currentLoggedInMember you could do:

    var currentMemberName = Members.GetCurrentLoginStatus().Username

    So it's important to know what you want to accomplish
