I'm doing an application in MVC asp.net . When the user logs in, I would like them to display the welcome message with the user name, however you are bringing the email, how do I change it?
My action looks like this:
@Html.ActionLink("Olá " + User.Identity.GetUserName() + "!", "Index", "Manage", routeValues: null, htmlAttributes: new { title = "Manage" })
ASP.NET MVC template with Identity , by default it already saves the Username with the email entered in the Register method, see:
[AllowAnonymous]
[ValidateAntiForgeryToken]
public async Task<ActionResult> Register(RegisterViewModel model)
{
if (ModelState.IsValid)
{
var user = new ApplicationUser { UserName = model.Email, Email = model.Email };
var result = await UserManager.CreateAsync(user, model.Password);
if (result.Succeeded)
{
await SignInManager.SignInAsync(user, isPersistent:false, rememberBrowser:false);
return RedirectToAction("Index", "Home");
}
AddErrors(result);
}
return View(model);
}
You can change this behavior ... How?
Change your class RegisterViewModel :
public class RegisterViewModel
{
[Required]
[EmailAddress]
[Display(Name = "Email")]
public string Email { get; set; }
[Required,Display(Name = "Username")]
public string Username { get; set; }
[Required]
[StringLength(100, ErrorMessage = "The {0} must be at least {2} characters long.", MinimumLength = 6)]
[DataType(DataType.Password)]
[Display(Name = "Password")]
public string Password { get; set; }
[DataType(DataType.Password)]
[Display(Name = "Confirm password")]
[Compare("Password", ErrorMessage = "The password and confirmation password do not match.")]
public string ConfirmPassword { get; set; }
}
And in View Register.cshtml add the field that will receive Username
<div class="form-group">
@Html.LabelFor(m => m.Username, new { @class = "col-md-2 control-label" })
<div class="col-md-10">
@Html.TextBoxFor(m => m.Username, new { @class = "form-control" })
</div>
</div>
Once this is done, change what Username is getting in method Register to AccountController
var user = new ApplicationUser { UserName = model.Username, Email = model.Email };
And then, your Username will have the value informed, at the time of registration. =)
