    Using ASP.Net Membership, get all users

    Hi everyone,

    I'm trying to use Membership.GetAllUsers() to create a list of all of my users in the database. However, I have a model that I use that maps out the user properties (First Name, Last Name, Email, etc.).

    How can I add all of the users into List

    Receiving an error Cannot implicitly convert type System.Collections.Generic.List

    at model.MemberList = tempMemberList;

    public ActionResult RenderMembers(ApplicationViewModel model)
    

    { var memberList = Membership.GetAllUsers();

    var tempMemberList = new List<MembershipUser>();
    foreach (MembershipUser member in memberList)
    {
        tempMemberList.Add(member);
    }
    
    model.MemberList = tempMemberList;
    
    return PartialView(GetViewPath1("_member-accounts"), model);
    

    }

    Model

    ublic List<MemberList> MemberList { get; set; }
    

    MemberList class

    public class MemberList
    { 
        public Guid Id { get; set; }
        public string Username { get; set; }
        public string Email { get; set; }
        public string Password { get; set; }
        public string Comment { get; set; }
        public bool IsApproved { get; set; }
        public bool IsLockedOut { get; set; }
        public DateTime LastLoginDate { get; set; }
        public DateTime LastLockoutDate { get; set; }
        public bool IsFrontendDev { get; set; }
        public bool IsBackendDev { get; set; }
    }
    

    Any pointers much appreciated.

    Hi Tom,

    Your issue is that you are trying to pass a List<MemberUser> into a List<MemberList> which is why you are getting a conversion issue.

    You'll have to do direct conversion between your MemberUser class and your MemberList class.

    for example (using Linq):

    model.MemberList = tempMemberList.Select(m => new MemberList{
        Username = m.UserName, //assuming MemberUser class has an UserName property
        Email = m.EmailAddress, //assuming MemberUser class has an EmailAddress property,
        ..... repeat for all properties you are mapping across ...
        }).ToList();
    

    Does that make sense?

    Nik
