Have you tried it?

You need to edit the web.config provider settings to the asp.net membership and roles. Shouldn't be an issue with using these. The only thing I'm not sure about is the Profile provider.

"It's a case of RTFM.. the only problem being we don't have a manual!"

When I post FP:Mek in a topic, I'm leaving my footprint there so I can track it once I get into coding/supporting. (Yes I stole this off Ederon 🙂 )

These are my settings and it works great. You must inherit the YAF.Classes.Utils.YafUserProfile for profiles to work properly. Other than that it's about the same.

connectionStringName="yafnet"
applicationName="Community" enablePasswordRetrieval="false"
enablePasswordReset="true"
requiresQuestionAndAnswer="false"
requiresUniqueEmail="true"
passwordFormat="Hashed"
maxInvalidPasswordAttempts="10"
minRequiredPasswordLength="4"
minRequiredNonalphanumericCharacters="0"
passwordAttemptWindow="10"
passwordStrengthRegularExpression=""/>

enabled="true" defaultProvider="SQLProfileProvider" inherits="YAF.Classes.Utils.YafUserProfile">

YAF takes care of membership credentials during registration, members take care of thier profiles and you manage YAF roles through the admin control panel (see snapshot below).
