Question

I am trying to check when a user is authenticated and I am always getting that the user is authenticated. Here is my code:

 if( User.Identity.IsAuthenticated )
 {
     addProfiledata();
 }

This condition always is true even if I log in and log out.

How can I correct this?

if you have defined users role then it should be handled, you are using LoginControl and i guess you are handling sing out sing in with other login controls like loginview and hope you are assigning the user roles to it. if this is a case you can use LoginUser_LoggedIn event

   // suppose if you are willing to redirect a user according to his/her role
protected void LoginUser_LoggedIn(object sender, EventArgs e)
        {
            if (string.IsNullOrEmpty(Request.QueryString["ReturnUrl"]))
            {
                // if user in role and authenticated 
                if (Roles.IsUserInRole(LoginUser.UserName, "Developers"))
                {
                    // add session and redirect to particular page
                    Session.Add("developer", "Developers");
                    Response.Redirect("../Developers/devAccess.aspx");

            }
        }
    }
