I'm trying to make a custom reg page that will include info to go into a completely different table than.....

And that's one of my problems. I don't know where all the data actually goes.

It seems that

FirstName
LastName
DisplayName
Email

go in the aspnet_Users table(?) and

Password

is in a completely different table, aspnet_Membership(?).

And then I have other data that would go into a third table.

DNN obviously puts this data in the correct tables but I can't figure out how.

One way I learn this stuff is by reverse engineering. But when I look at Stored Procedures [AddUser] and [aspnet_Users_CreateUser] there's no password data so I can't see how the data is used in two different tables, where it goes and how it gets there.

I searched and read and watched but I'm coming up empty.

Can anyone guide me here?

Can I add fields to the aspnet table? Which one?

I can't just create a new, standalone table because then I can't set permissions on pages and modules, etc.

Still more than willing to read more, watch more and buy a good book to learn these answers.

Thanks

You've sent me full circle Mark. I'm right back where I started. I went off on so many tangents...

But you're right, no point in trying to re-invent the wheel.

I've been playing with XModPro to help me out and that has lead me down a different path.

Wanted to try XMod as I needed a databound list box on the reg page. Right now I'm just using "List" when I create a new Profile Setting and so I have to enter all the info manually. And one minor change will affect 100 different sites, all requiring a manual change.

But I will worry about that later I suppose. I need to get the site up and running.

Thanks for getting me back on track.

Trust me - I understand. I had to tweak the DNN registration to suite a clients needs last year and I have an more challenging one right now. When I looked at out-of-the-box registration and trying to tweak it, it seemed like too much work. That's when I decided to use the API to do the heavy lifting and just added the extra member data in a separate table.

Any time! Let us know if you need anything else.
