U4-4005 - Member custom properties not saving from code, only from backend

I believe entire nForum is falling apart because code like m.getProperty("forumUserLastPrivateMessage").Value = DateTime.Now; doesn't work. Is there some better modern api to work with Members properties?

Looks like it everytime you use member.Save(). Not only when changing custom properties.

I have tried to test it - see code below. First I get a Member and outputs it. Then changes Login and EMail, and saves the member. Then I get the member again and outputs it. But the properties is the same . Looking in the back-end the changes is visible. @inherits Umbraco.Web.Mvc.UmbracoTemplatePage @using umbraco.cms.businesslogic.member @using Member = umbraco.cms.businesslogic.member.Member

@{ Layout = null;

// Remember to create Member in Backend
// Member: Login = test, E-mail = test@test.dk
    
Member m = Member.GetMemberFromEmail("test@test.dk");
@ShowMember(m)

m.LoginName = "Test1234";
m.Email = "newtest@test.dk";

m.Save();

Member testMember = Member.GetMemberFromEmail("newtest@test.dk");
@ShowMember(testMember)

}

@helper ShowMember(Member member) {

Name: @member.Text
LoginName: @member.LoginName
E-mail: @member.Email

Dima, I would love if there was a better modern api to work with Members properties! Cheers to that!

Josh, a little googling suggested it will be - in 7.0.2, we probably can hope for it :)

Can reproduce, have assigned to Shannon to be fixed asap :)

The problem is due to some caching logic. The legacy member API slightly wraps the new members API (which is still a work in progress - to be released with 6.2 and 7.1) but the API wrapping is not complete. This must have been an oversight from late last year. I'll fix up in 6.2 which will merge into 7.0.2

Shannon, any chance we can get a patched 7.0.1 release that contains this fix? This is a critical fix for us and unfortunately our project timing won't allow us to wait for 7.0.2. Thanks for your consideration.

I would second that motion! I can't find any mention of a release date for 7.0.2, but I am going to guess it is probably past my project deadlines also!

Nightly builds are available here: http://nightly.umbraco.org/umbraco%207.0.2/

You could also opt to make your own build. v7.0.1 was built off of revision 6a5a320a22da709b4216a7292e257242928b7151 and the fix for this issue can be cherrypicked from revision e74e8f9d731d30b8c973e8db21c8167f5fda7cd8

Thanks Sebastiaan.

I was able to get this working by applying the necessary changes to the 7.0.1 source -- seems to be working fine.

I attempted to use 7.0.2 nightly binaries (build 237), but there was an issue with the Membership provider: System.Web.Security.Membership.ValidateUser() was returning true for invalid passwords (works fine with 7.0.1 binaries). I didn't dig into the source to find the cause, just a heads-up to whomever is working on that.

Thanks again for providing the quick fix, Shannon.

Cool, i'll re-open this to remind me to look tomorrow at the provider, has lots of tests against it so seems strange. will see if i can repro.

Good find, the logic slightly changed with membership refactoring in 6.2, all good now.
