Help changing user role without logging out. 

I am using version 4.0 of DDN and we created a password change module.  We don't want the user to be able to see the rest of the site unless he changes his password.  So our current solution involves assigning the user a specific role that only sees the password change module and after he changes his password, then we change his role to the role that is allowed to see the rest of the site, but the problem we are facing is that it seems that the user has to log out before the new role takes place.  The question is, how can I change the user's role without making him log out?

Thanks

Re: Help changing user role without logging out. 

Do you reload the page after you assign the user to new role?

Something like this:

Response.Redirect(NavigateURL())

Re: Help changing user role without logging out. 

Yes...at the end of the function, we reload the page.  Here is the code.

Private Sub ChangeUserRole()

dim roleInfo as new Security.Roles.RoleInfo

dim rc as new Security.Roles.RoleController

'Get the role Information

roleInfo = rc.GetRoleByName(PortalId,"RoleName")

'Assign role to the user

rc.AddUserRole(PortalId, UserId, roleInfo.RoleID, Nothing)

rc.SynchronizeRoles(PortalId)

Response.Redirect( NavigateURL())

End Sub

 

Thanks.

Re: Help changing user role without logging out. 

Never mind.  We found the solution.  We just had to expire the cookies, and automatically the new role is in effect using:

Response.Cookies.("portalroles").Expires = DateTime.Now.AddDays(-1)

Response.Cookies.(".ASPXROLES").Expires = DateTime.Now.AddDays(-1)

Thanks.
