Avatar/Image in User Login

Edit Subject

Jonesy,

We are working on documentation for the feature. The technique required is to override the default image handler to return a URL, file path, Image object, or string. See the sample code below, in order of preferred to least preferred option.

using System; 

using System.Collections.Generic; 

using System.Drawing; 

using System.IO; 

using System.Linq; 

using System.Web; 

using System.Web.Security;


namespace MyCompany.Services 

{ 

public partial class ApplicationServices 

{ 

public override string UserPictureFilePath(MembershipUser user) 

{ 

// return String.Format("C:/MyUserPictures/{0}.png", user.UserName); 

return base.UserPictureFilePath(user); 

}


public override string UserPictureUrl(MembershipUser user) 

{ 

// return String.Format("https://myuserpictures.com/{0}.png", user.UserName); 

return base.UserPictureUrl(user); 

}


public override Image UserPictureImage(MembershipUser user) 

{ 

//using (FileStream s = File.Open("C:/path/to/file", FileMode.Open)) 

// return Image.FromStream(s); 

return base.UserPictureImage(user); 

}


public override string UserPictureString(MembershipUser user) 

{ 

// see base method 

return base.UserPictureString(user); 

} 

} 

}

I'm using the above example, but unfortunately my application does not load the user's image.

I debug the ApplicationService and it does not even go through the Image functions.

Need some input some Parameter?

I am using the Ultimate License, .Net 4.6, ASPX and without cms

Check out the video demo of this feature, hopefully, it should come out simpler for you. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fgWeF...

Dear Ola,
Thanks for your answer. But both the tutorial on yout when the above functions work perfectly when the page implementation is as Single Page Apps. When it is aspx does not work.

Were you able to work with aspx?

Nielsen,

I can confirm I've implemented it in aspx and it works fine. Perhaps you should look through your steps carefully, you just might be missing it somewhere.
Hope this helps. Thanks.

Any word on this? Using 8.7.14 ASPX and still not working. The userticket picture is loaded correctly, but I'm not seeing it at the top of the page, only the first letter of the username.

Ok guys, I found the problem. Looks like purely a javascript bug.

In the file "daf.js" line 11529, userName and userPicture are set incorrectly. It should be userName = user.UserName and userPicture = user.Picture. I copied the fixed file into "\Code OnTime\Library\Standard\Scripts" folder for future regeneration.

Honestly, COT, how hard is it to look into these issues and just fix them!?

Thanks Allen for this.
I seem to have another code in line 11529, can you help with the function name or better still the code snippet so I get it right.
Thanks.
