Question

I want to know how I can implement membership provider class to have ability to remember users who signed in.

I have Membership provider class and I need functionality of “Remember Me” checkbox but I don’t know how I can implement some methods

Answer 1

In order to implement this functionality you must create a persistent cookie with some expiration date on the users computer. So if the user checks the Remember me checkbox you issue the following cookie:

var cookie = new HttpCookie("_some_cookie_name_", "username") 
{
    Expires = DateTime.Now.AddDays(15) // Remember user for 15 days
};
Response.Cookies.Add(cookie);

And then upon showing the login screen you could check if the cookie is present and prefill the username:

var cookie = Request.Cookies["_some_cookie_name_"];
if (cookie != null)
{
    usernameTextBox.Text = cookie.Value;
}
