Hi,

i was just wondering, does the YAF integration to an asp.net website work with Web apps,(In visual studio file => New Website) or Web app projects only? (file => New Project)

Since Web apps does not support the profile feature.

Will i still be able to integrate YAF to my existing site?

Or does it only work for Web projects.

-Thanks

My thread about this on asp.net forums

I really hope someone can proove me wrong, as i only have a webapp and cannot restart my site using web project, and i really want to integrate YAF to my site.

Thanks

Ouch! Learn something new every day.

Worst comes to worst it'll be a replace job on the profile entries to using GetPropertyValue(""), but I can't comment how much work it'd take in getting the whole thing running smoothly as I haven't done it 😞 But since YAF is just a control at the end of the day, if you have the App_Code present, and the YAF website in a folder. I can't see why you can't just LoadControl("forum.ascx") into your application.

Not done it with a WAP personally so its just a hypothetical.

Sorry can't be of much more help...

I just thought of something...

Isnt it possible to use the YAF profiles instead?

So for example, when a user wants to view a profile, they will be redirected to their YAF profile, and i just use my normal membership for member management, is that possible?

Thanks
