As far as the SetPropertyValue method, I just forgot to update the UserController to write the changes to the tables.  So it would be something like this:

Dim objUser As UserInfo = UserController.GetCurrentUserInfo()
objUser.Profile.SetProfileProperty(
"propertyname", "propertyvalue")
UserController.UpdateUser(PortalSettings.PortalId, objUser)

 This also works with any custom profile properties that have been created.

 

Ok my problem is I was creating a portal without creating the profileproperties.  there is a new method called within createportal called   createprofiledefinitions.  the .template was modified to account for teh definitions.

I have tried this approach also and can not seem to get it to work. Does'nt this approach just update the User information and not the profile information? THere is a similiar ProfileController object that has a "UpdateUserProfile()" method. Can this be used??

Thanks
Harold

Here is how I update user custom profile properties

Dim oUserInfo As New DotNetNuke.Entities.Users.UserInfo
oUserInfo = UserController.GetCurrentUserInfo()
oUserInfo.Profile.SetProfileProperty("profilePropertyName", "profilePropertyValue")
            UserController.UpdateUser(PortalSettings.PortalId, oUserInfo)

It works for me in DNN4.3.4

Hope it helps.
