Question

I have created custom MembershipUser, MembershipProvider and RolePrivoder classes. These all work and I am very happy with it, apart from one thing. I have an extra field in the ‘Users’ table. I have an overridden method for CreateUser() that takes in the extra variable and puts it into the DB.

My issues is that I want to be able to have this called from the Create User Wizard control. I have customized the control to have a drop down to populate my extra field. I have used the following code to store that piece of info but I am at a loss of how I either use the profile or call my custom CreateUser Method:

 // Create an empty Profile for the newly created user       ProfileCommon p = (ProfileCommon)ProfileCommon.Create(CreateUserWizard1.UserName, true);   // Populate some Profile properties off of the create user wizard  p.CurrentLevel = Int32.Parse(((DropDownList)CreateUserWizard1.CreateUserStep.ContentTemplateContainer.FindControl('clevel')).SelectedValue);   // Save profile - must be done since we explicitly created it  p.Save();  

Thank you for any and all help

I think your solution is the ‘easiest’ you’re going to get. You could create your own wizard and call the correct method, but that’s a lot more work.

The only thing I could recommend is using the OnCreatedUser event instead.
