Login controls
HiI'm building a web app in visual studio 2005 and I'm setting up a 'create user' page for the admin part of the app. I'm creating a customised CreateUserWizard so that I can add a user to the asp.net membership list (in database on my server) and also add some info to one of my tables (user first name, faculty they work for etc).  I want to be able to let the admin user allocate roles (those already defined in my config) from a drop down list. I want to inculde this in my create user wizard, and have an 'update user' section where I can change their role the...

'Roles' is an ambiguous reference between 'System.Web.Security.Roles'
Compilation error? Error 6 'Roles' is an ambiguous reference between 'System.Web.Security.Roles' and 'CuprykForums.Components.Roles' C:\inetpub\wwwroot\CuprykServer\Components\HttpModule\ForumsHttpModule.cs 187 21 Thank you! In ForumsHttpModule.cs (a third party component of your site I gather) you must find all references to the "Roles" class and make sure you prefix it with the full namespace name of the class. There is a roles class in the CSK also, and the compiler is unable to determine if you are refering to the CSK's role class, or the CuprykForum's role class.Step...

Roles, roles, roles
Hey is it posible o have a role for a user to only update the content? I don't want that user to change skins or to make other admin changes... up I think if you allow a role to edit contents on a module level he wont be able to change anything else. Did you try that? cheers, erikErik van Ballegoij, The Netherlands if you allow a role to edit contents in a module lets say discussions module, then that role will be able to edit, delete the threads. so for a role to be able to add new thread only, do we need to write our own code?-keeara g------------------ keeara, see...

Manage Users For This Role / Manage Roles For This User Question
In the roles/user management pages there is a link called Manage Users For This Role and Manage Roles For This User respectively. I want non Admins to be able to see these pages, and currently I have it so that they can see the manage users and manage roles pages. However, when a non admin clicks on Manage Users For This Role or Manage Roles For This User link it does not display the control, just an empty page. I can get around this by giving edit rights to the page, but I do not want them to have edit rights for the page. Any ideas? Thanks  ...

Creating User Account Without Default Security Role (Registered User Role)
  My DNN version is 3.1.1. The portal is set to Private Registration. Unauthenicated users have access to the basic pages of the site. We require my company's current customers to register and be approved to have access to all other pages that contain information restricted to them (the major part of the site). As you know, authorizing a user account applys the Registered User security role by default and this is how I control access to the customer areas.  We want to create a page that will be used by Marketing to allow potential customers by login to...

DNN 3.0.5
Dear DNN Community, How do you locate every Security Role associated with a User Account? One would think that you can find out Role Memberships simply by viewing the particular User Account that you are interested in and having a list presented to you of all roles they participate in. Unfortunately, this appears to not be the case. From what I can tell, you can only veiew Security Role membership by clicking every Security Role group and looking. Isn't this a bit tedious for those of who have DNN sites with 100+ security roles? Why not display the Security Roles when viewing the...

Roles as 'members' of roles?
I was just administering a site and realized how much easier it would be to admin if i could add roles as members of roles. Background: i manage a site for a sports organization run by an executive board. These folks come and go. I currently have them sign up as themselves rather than as the exec member role they play. If i could create a few high-level roles that then become members of more base roles, then when i add a new exec member to the base roles, then automatically get the higher-level functions.Has this been tossed around before? thanks, drew.. It is listed on the ...

The VM in development
I know the PB VM is used at run time to interpret the p-code and basically is the heart of PowerBuilder, but what is it's role at design/development time? When you create PBDs, does the PB VM have a hand in it? Does the VM have any effect on the IDE? I've noticed that upgrading the VM also seems to upgrade the IDE (e.g. the "disappearing extend ancestor" error). The ultimate question is really this: if I compile a PBD using PB VM Build x, might I run into problems if I run that PBD on Build x + z? If the PBVM is involved in p-code generation, then the answer t...

Creating a "user's page"
I would like to create a page in my intranet portal that would be for each specific user, sort of a personalized home page where they could add content and modules and order them according to their liking. I thought that I could just add a new tab for each user under the home tab and give them admin access to it, but I want it only available to them (ie. the user can only access the tab with their name on it: username = tabname). The only way I can figure out how to do this is to create a role for each user and then limit their tab to their role. However, I have too many users to crea...
