Built-in controls with custom providers

J

John

Hi

I have created custom membership/role/profile providers as per the
web.config below. My questions are;

1. Have I defined them correctly?

2. How can I make the Login and Create User Wizard controls to use these
providers instead of the standard providers?

Thanks

Regards

web.config follows

1) I didn't check the syntax. Did you? Do you get any errors?

2) Set the defaultProvider attribute to the name you gave to your custom
providers, on each of the parent elements.

For example:
<membership defaultProvider="MembershipProvider">
<providers>
<add...
</providers>
</membership>


Do the same for <profile> and <roleManager>
