I am doing a very basic thing which is just not working.  I am trying to set certain profile properties for the user when they are loggedin (or registered).  However with no errors it just does not work.

I opened the Login.ascx.vb file in the Admin -> Authentication folders of DNN and added couple of lines of code to the "UserAuthenticated" Sub.  Stepped through the code in VS2005 with no errors or exceptions thrown, code runs, and yet profile properties are not set.  Here is the code.  Would this be a bug that the Properties are not updated or could it be that I am just simply not doing something right?

Private Sub UserAuthenticated(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As UserAuthenticatedEventArgs)

' Left everything in the function and added following lines near the bottom.

Try

 

If e.User.Profile.ProfileProperties("USERGUID").PropertyValue = Nothing Or e.User.Profile.ProfileProperties("USERGUID").PropertyValue = "" Then

User.Profile.SetProfileProperty(

 

"USERGUID", Guid.NewGuid().ToString())'User.Profile.ProfileProperties("USERGUID").PropertyValue = Guid.NewGuid().ToString()

 

End If

 

 

Catch ex As ExceptionEnd Try

Also would like to add that locally the user object does get the values I give it.  However the values are not set in the sql.  kind of tempted to simply run sql query which is really not a good way to go around it.  Any help anyone?
