Registration widget doesnt offer possibility of choosing bet

Posted by Community Admin on 19-Mar-2012 00:00

According to this text:

http://www.sitefinity.com/documentation/documentationarticles/user-guide/widgets/users-widgets-group/configuring-the-registration-widget

the registration widget should allow us to choose the provider, however the mine doesnt show such option, and this is exactly my problem, I need to register users without access to backend but now it is turned on by default.

Please help, thank you.
Robert

Hello Robert,

Thank you for reporting this. Actually, the Provider option is removed from the latest version of Sitefinity, so we will correct out documentation. Please excuse us for the inconvenience. Your Telerik points have been updated.

Kind regards,

Hi Jen,
thank you for your answer.

To solve my problem, can you please suggest what should I do in order to have users registered as non-backend users? Currently they are all backend users by default with grayed checkbox in administration, so I cant event change it manually. I guess I have to override some function, can you please guide me, which one?

Thank you,
Robert

Hi again,
so this is funny. I think I managed to set IsBackendUser manually via code, in my custom RegistrationForm like this:

protected override bool TryCreateUser(UserManager manager, out User user, out MembershipCreateStatus status)

user = manager.CreateUser((string)this.UserNameField.Value, (string)this.PasswordField.Value, (string)this.EmailField.Value, null, null, !this.SendRegistrationEmail, null, out status);

user.IsBackendUser = false;

manager.SaveChanges();

return (status == MembershipCreateStatus.Success);

1. not sure if its right, though, but in DB field sf_Users.is_backend_user = 0
2. But, when I go to backend and view that user, the checkbox 'this user can access backend' is checked, and grayed
3. Additionally, when I try to login with two such users (with this manually removed backend flag) it works.
Btw. this is valid for Small business edition.

Please can you confirm whether you can reproduce it and if it's a bug?

Thank you,
Robert

Please anyone? I'd be glad to hear Telerik's opinion on this.

Hello Robert,

I've tested the registration widget and it seems that users, who are registered through it can't access the backend by default. Have you made any modifications to the registration widget?
