Hi there.

 

Hope you can help me. I've downloaded and installed the Integration package in order to integrate Chat with my current website.

 

I followed the instructions and added the following to my /global.asax file:

 

     Public Overrides Sub Init()

    End Sub

 

I then implemeted my CuteChatMembership class in a vb file located in my App_Code folder. The gist of it is below:

 

Imports System.Configuration
Imports System.Web
Imports System.Web.Security
Imports CuteChat

Public Class CuteChatMembership
    Inherits CuteChat.ChatProvider

    Public Overrides Function GetConnectionString() As String
        Return ConfigurationManager.ConnectionStrings("CuteChat").ConnectionString
    End Function

    Public Overrides Function FindUserLoginName(ByVal nickName As String) As String
        Return HttpContext.Current.User.Identity.Name
    End Function

    Public Overrides Function GetLogonIdentity() As AppChatIdentity
        'need to find the information of current user. Return null if user is anonymous.
        Dim thisUser As New LoggedInUser(HttpContext.Current.User.Identity.Name)
        If thisUser.LoggedIn Then
            Return New AppChatIdentity(HttpContext.Current.User.Identity.Name, False, thisUser.AccountID, HttpContext.Current.Request.UserHostAddress)
        Else
            Return Nothing
        End If
    End Function

    Public Overrides Function GetUserInfo(ByVal loginName As String, ByRef nickName As String, ByRef isAdmin As Boolean) As Boolean
        isAdmin = True
        nickName = loginName
        Return True
    End Function
    Public Overrides Function ValidateUser(ByVal loginName As String, ByVal password As String) As Boolean
        If System.Web.Security.Membership.ValidateUser(loginName, password) Then
            System.Web.Security.FormsAuthentication.SetAuthCookie(loginName, False)
            Return True
        Else
            Return False
        End If
    End Function
