Hi all,
This is my first post here, I just came across this site while looking for a forum that can integrates with my existing website which uses the ASP.NET membership provider. Does this feature exist?

Thank you very much,
Kenny.

Thank you very much... Is there a "donate" button or anything similar so that I can contribute and help the team here??

One more question, I see that there are google ads on the forum, is that something we can turn off, or put our own ads?

Thanks again,
Kenny.

Well, when you say "release" do you mean production stable?

If yes, then not for a while (maybe a month or two -- depending on issues). If you mean a test (ALPHA) release that has bugs, then this week.

I've posted this in another thread but I guess I should have posted it here.

Quote:

Can you explain what exactly you have implemented.

You have created your own membership provider that I can plug into ASP.NET membership service or you have created your own membership service that I can build provider for?

My personal problem is that I have(ok I don't have it yet but I will have it) a website using ASP.NET SQL Membership Provider and I want to integrate a forum to use the same users. Can I use YAF to do this?

Thanks

We have built our own membership provider that works in the existing ASP.NET membership. If your keen to start using the provider you can find it YAF 1.93 which in its unfinished form is on the Sourceforge SVN (details of how to obtain are on the Source Code stickied topic here).

So basically I'll be using YAF's database to store the website's users. I guess you couldn't do the opposite because YAF's database stores much more user information than the default ASP.NET SQL Membership Provider. And is there any API which I can use to programatically register users. Something like webservice for example, that I can use to duplicate user account from the website on the forum.

I tried looking at the code but it is not that easy with Visual Studio Express Edition and I cannot really spent time on this at work.

Thank's a lot.

atm it just syncs between the Membership provider and creates YAF registrations if they are missing, a register service would be a pretty nice idea for those of us who integrate but don't expect anything too soon.

What is that "just syncs between the membership provider and creates YAF registrations"? I couldn't figure that out from your post.

Jaben has included code which synchronises the users in the membership provider into YAF, effectively auto-registering any member in the membership when YAF is run.

So I can have the Microsoft membership database tables (that I get with aspnet_regserv.exe) and YAF will sync with them? When someone changes the password in the membership tables he would have changed YAF password and the other way round if a user changes YAF password he would changed the password in the membership tables. Did I get it right?

It's not heavily synced. YAF just keeps a reference to the UserProviderID and a copy of the roles structure.

Really, the main syncing is with Roles... YAF keeps the roles structure because of it's "legacy" DB-based permission system. I'm planning to modify in future versions of YAF but it will require a completely redesigned DB system.
