Hi,

I'm trying to use Dot Net Nuke to build a website that will be linked to another websites membership user base.
e.g. So I can log into the new DNN website using my old database schema / users / profiles and roles, which is somewhat quite complex, but still meets the basic membership model of having users and roles.

So far I have written my MembershipProvider, ProfileProvider and they work fine which is good.

However the RoleProvider doesn't seem to work at all, or at least from my brief look into implementing it.
The actual RoleProvider class was easy to write and plug in. as in the Interface of returning a string[] of roles/usernames etc.
If I log in as one of my users from my database, and the IsUserInRole('Administrators') function returns true from my custom RoleProvider, DNN doesn't seem to even care what my RoleProvider returns.

Is there anyone out there who has successfully implemented a custom RoleProvider for DNN??

Can one of the developers who worked on this model, provide me with any hints or tips to get this working?
Or maybe an explanation as to why the DNN RoleProvider model doesn't work?
Would really really appreciate some help..

Thanks,
Nigel

Hey, if theres any way I can help with this, I'm happy too.
I can do some beta testing etc.. or whatever.

I'm quite keen to get this working, as it would be great for me, and I'm sure any one else wanting to use their own membership/role/profile providers.

Again, if anyone has had any success with this, I wouldn't mind knowing how they went about it.

I'm thinking I may have to modify the source code to get this working how I want it to, but I really don't want to do that as it could possibly make updates of DNN more challenging.

Thanks,
