I have encountered a problem that is driving me crazy.  I'm running DNN 04.08.02.

When I Dim mRoles As New DotNetNuke.Entities.Users.OnlineUserInfo

and then query mRoles.PortalID I get 0 ... which would be fine if I were logged-into portal 0 ... but I'm logged into PortalID 26!  I get this same result whether I am the HOST account or whether I am myself (an administrative account.)

Am I doing something wrong, or is there a known bug in this release, or is there some other reason (that totally escapes me) why this is not working?

This user has access to 16 different portals on the installation according to the UserPortals table.  Now the ironic thing is that I also used to have access to PortalID=0 but thought that might be causing the problem so I removed myself from that portal.  (So I am getting a 0 even though my account doesn't even have access to PortalID 0.)

Hey Bryan,

Upon closer inspection, I'm really not sure what exactly you're having trouble with. Let me know if that has anything to do with your question or if that was a typo.

Firstly, in the subject you mention "getrolesbyuser.portalid" - and in the body you mention OnlineUserInfo.PortalId. If you're actually using the code you put in your body, its no wonder the PortalId resolves to 0 - you're creating a _new_ instance of OnlineUserInfo and then asking what the portal ID is - and it'll be 0 until you set it to something else.

Sorry for the confusion on my part :)

Take care,

Ian
