    Get Current MemberGroup

    Hello everyone,

    I have a website with 10 different Member Group where all members have access to certain specific content on the website.

    Can somehow tell me how do i get to display the MemberGroup of a Login User ?

    var CUser = Member.GetCurrentMember();
        
        if(AlnUser != null){
            var CUserName = CUser.Text;
            var CLastName = CUser.getProperty("userLastName").Value.ToString();
    

@CUserName @CLastName  @CUser.MemberGroup

    Still not working though

     var userName = CUser.LoginName;
        var userGroup = CUser.Id;
       
        
        var roles = System.Web.Security.Roles.GetRolesForUser(1066);

        @roles.ToString()

    The method only takes a login name as parameter - not a user ID, so based on your code, try the following:

    string[] roles = System.Web.Security.Roles.GetRolesForUser(userName);

    The method will then return a string array of the member groups the user is associated with ;)

    Hi Anders,

    Still the same output System.String[]. Am i missing any other Namespace apart from System.Web.Security ? 

    var roles =System.Web.Security.Roles.GetRolesForUser(username); or
    String[] r = System.Web.Security.Roles.GetRolesForUser(userName);

    I'm not sure I understand the last part. Are you getting any errors? The method will return a string array, but it doesn't matter whether you write var, string[] or String[] - it means the same in the end.

    It's not necessary to import any namespaces to make it work.

    The method returns an array since a member can be a part of multiple groups.

    Bu you can check for a specific member group like this:

    string[] roles = System.Web.Security.Roles.GetRolesForUser(userName);

bool isInSomeGroup = roles.Contains("SomeGroup");
bool isInSomeOtherGroup = roles.Contains("SomeOtherGroup");

    This will require the System.Linq namespace.

    You can also list all the groups like this:

    <ul>
@foreach (string role in roles) {
    <li>@role</li>
}
</ul>
