Hi,

I'm new to using Umbraco. I'm using Umbraco 7.11.1 (latest as of now). I'm trying to extend login functionality for users, more specifically I want to perform additional actions during backoffice login process.

So far I created class to extend UsersMembershipProvider:

    public class ExternalUsersMembershipProvider : UsersMembershipProvider
{
    public override bool ValidateUser(string username, string password)
    {
        // custom logic

        return base.ValidateUser(username, password);
    }
}

web.config:

    <membership defaultProvider="UmbracoMembershipProvider" userIsOnlineTimeWindow="15">
  <providers>
    <clear />
    <add name="UsersMembershipProvider" type="XXX.Auth.ExternalUsersMembershipProvider" />
    <add name="UmbracoMembershipProvider" type="Umbraco.Web.Security.Providers.MembersMembershipProvider, Umbraco" minRequiredNonalphanumericCharacters="0" minRequiredPasswordLength="10" useLegacyEncoding="false" enablePasswordRetrieval="false" enablePasswordReset="false" requiresQuestionAndAnswer="false" defaultMemberTypeAlias="Member" passwordFormat="Hashed" allowManuallyChangingPassword="false" />
  </providers>
</membership>

When trying to login, ValidateUser method doesn't seem to get executed at all.

Any ideas? Thanks.
