Hi

When logging, I wanna be able to look for some information after validating the identity of the user ans save it to the Session object.
How could this be done ?
should I develop my own UC or the one in SF could be useful with some customization
thanks

Hi Bassem,

You can override LoginForm_Authenticate method of  Telerik.Sitefinity.Web.UI.PublicControls.LoginControl and then check if the user is authenticated if(!e.Authenticated)

Hi Ivan 
Thank you for the response, 
where can I override this LoginForm_Authenticate method of  Telerik.Sitefinity.Web.UI.PublicControls.LoginControl : 
I should use a UC that uses Telerik.Sitefinity.Web.UI.PublicControls.LoginControl because I cannot see it in my RadControls toolbox in VS. 

thank you

Hello Bassem,

You need a custom class that inherits from Telerik.Sitefinity.Web.UI.PublicControls.LoginControl

Can you show me an example?

Thansk, ~Pik

Here is my sample code, not sure why the Response.Redirect is not working.
  void Login1_Authenticate(object sender, AuthenticateEventArgs e)
 
        bool x;
        x = UserManager.GetManager().ValidateUser("username1","userpw");

        if (x.Equals(true))
       
            Response.Redirect("~/login/select/");
       


I received this error message:

Server Error in '/SitefinityPortal' Application.

Hello,

The page /SitefinityPortal/login/select/ does not exist - this is not the correct url or the user you use does not have view permissions.

Kind regards,

Thanks for the reply.

The page does exists. It is working fine if I used the sitefinity login control but not my custom login control. Any idea why?

Thanks,
Pik

Hi Pik,

Since this page does not exist the problem is in your code and the way that you construct the url. I do not know what the the proper url for your specific SiteMap structure.
