Hi jackandjo,
Glad you like the book.
I think it's pretty easy to do. Here are the first steps to get you going:
1. Add a CreateUserWizard to a page.
2. Right-click it and choose Customize Create User Step
3. In the markup that has been added, add runat="server" and visible="false" attributes to the table row that holds the box for the User Name, like this:
Code:
<tr runat="server" visible="false">
<td align="right">
<asp:Label ID="UserNameLabel" runat="server" AssociatedControlID="UserName">
User Name:</asp:Label>
</td>
<td>
<asp:TextBox ID="UserName" runat="server"></asp:TextBox>
<asp:RequiredFieldValidator ID="UserNameRequired"
runat="server" ControlToValidate="UserName" ErrorMessage="User Name is required."
ToolTip="User Name is required."
ValidationGroup="CreateUserWizard1">
*
</asp:RequiredFieldValidator>
</td>
</tr>
If you just remove the entire row, you'll get an error because the UserName field is required.
Then in the CreatingUser event, sync the user name and e-mail address like this:
Code:
Protected Sub CreateUserWizard1_CreatingUser(ByVal sender As Object, _
ByVal e As System.Web.UI.WebControls.LoginCancelEventArgs) _
Handles CreateUserWizard1.CreatingUser
CreateUserWizard1.UserName = CreateUserWizard1.Email
End Sub
This way, when the user is inserted, the e-mail address is inserted as the user's name.
Similar to this, you'll need to customize other controls; you mainly need to alter the labels in front of controls, similar to what's been done to the PasswordRecovery control in chapter 9 - The Web Shop.
Hope this helps and if not, please let me know.
Cheers,
Imar
