    SqlMembershipProvider support

    Hi,

    I have a client website using Umbraco 4.7.2 that already has some 12,000+ members stored in SqlMembershipProvider database tables. I have seen a previous post about adding support for existing members and tweaking the source code but is it compatible with the SqlMembershipProvider framework and from that what value gets put in the "Forum Topic Owned By" post field as the primary key is a GUID and I believe the field wants an Integer PK.

     

    Thanks,

    Simon

    I have a functioning version of nForum using a custom .net MembershipProvider. This required some modifications of nForum as well as the membership provider. I dont think you will be able to use nForum along with anything else than the default provider without customizing it. I've promised to upload my port of nForum somewhere and may have a timeslot to do so this weekend.

    I have had a look at the nForum source code and can see that one of the big issues is going to be converting the Owner property from an Integer to an appropriate Key value for the SqlMembershipProvider which can either be the username (string) or userId (guid - which could be converted to a string).

    Any thoughts on issues I might have with either of those?

    I edited the nForum source to what I think is correct but I can't get any posts or categories defined in the back end show in the website. The Macro look like they are reading from the examine search provider which I believe to be working as it aleardy works for the rest of the site.

    It should be noted that this was an issue prior to editing the source using just the standard Umbraco membership provider.

    Suggestions would be very much appreciated.
