To change the account profile / registration page for each of your users in DotNetNuke:
This method allows you to add extra modules to the page and provide further information to your users.
- Create a New Page
- Add the user account module and any other modules you require
- Go to the admin menu / site settings
- / Advanced Settings / User Page
- Select the new page that you have created
- Click on update

| Does this imply that if you do this, the form data will be written to the database in the same manner the standard one is? And how would you disable the current registration page? |

Hello,
Yes all data is stored exactly the same. - You are using the registration module, so it is identical. - All you are doing is specifying a page to go to which has the registration module installed on it along with other modules, so for instance you could create an introduction text.
Because you have set this in the admin settings, you don't need to disable the current registration page, you are setting which page is used as the registration for your entire portal.
Thanks, |

| Okay, I tried that, but there are still two different registration pages, one with the extra module and one without. How do I link the new page to the standard Register link? |

| Great, thanks for being patient with me while I get used to all this. One last question about this: When I created the page, I had to specify a parent page, or none. If it has a parent, it appears as a submenu, with no parent, its on my top menu bar. Can I make it so that it's only link is the register button when not logged in? |

Hello,
I've followed the steps to create a new Registration Page. Everything seems to work allright, the problem is when a user tries to subscribe to a role. When the user clicks Subscribe, a blank page is displayed, and the subscription is not performed. Do you have an idea of what can be the problem?
Thanks in advance,
María |

Hello,
Thank you for the quick response. My DNN version is 3.1.1, and the problem occurs when a user tries to subscribe to a public role in Membership Services.
The url is: http://200.105.153.164/sg.
Anyway, I'll take a look to the tutorial you recommended .
Thanks,
María |

Hello,
ok, had a look, thanks. - First thing is the site is a bit slow, you might want to consider enabling DotnetNuke HTTP Compression.
- Only do this when you have finished installing everything though. - I've just re-enabled DNN Creative to use HTTP Compression and it makes a big difference in page load times.
Back to the problem:
Yes, I can see the problem. - Out of interest I would test this:
Setup the Register and Login links so that they are using the default setup and see if the problem still occurs, there maybe some strange conflict happening with one of the other modules that is on the page. - If you can get this to work, then re-set to use the Register page you created, but remove all of the modules and see if it still works. If it does, re-add each module one at a time to see what is causing the problem.
Other than that, I don't know, i haven't come across that problem before
The login page is a bit confusing because once you login, the login box is still displayed, I would set this up in the module settings so that it is only visible to un-authenticated users.
Thanks, |

I've also received an enquiry regarding the login pages which is inline with this subject, so I've posted the answer in here:
I found your site and is a bit of a good reference for some tasks I've been working on. One in particular is the custom register and login pages. I followed your instructions and have the register option workin very well. However, it's the login page that's giving me trouble. At the top of the page, we have 2 tabs: Register and Login. When you login register shows your name, while login becomes "logout". I made a page called Login, and added the Account Login to it. Ticked Hidded. Under Host/Pages, set the login page from to this new page and my skin on it. So, I go to the page and there's the one I just created. However, when I enter user/pass, it shows the menus like it's supposed to on the horizontal bar, but I'm sitting back at the enter user/pass fields. If I change the page settings it comes up after login as "you are not authorized to see this page". The default login page, after you enter user/pass, takes you back to the homepage w/ full menus on it. That's what I'd like to do. Am I using the wrong module on the page? Thank you so much for any help or suggestions you have. Chris
Re: login
- The login module on your new page, set it so that it is only viewable to un-authenticated users. – It will then disappear when you login, but you will stay on the same page when you have logged in. – So if you want to display some text for users when they have logged in, add another module to the page that is just viewable to Registered users. – This will appear to them as though they have moved to a different page.
When you login using the normal default setup. It doesn’t take you to the Home Page, it logs you in at whichever page you are at. – Click on another page and then click on login, you will still be viewing the same page.
I don’t know of a method for re-directing to another page after a user has logged in, if you find one I would be very interested as I’ve wanted to do this a few times.
Hope this helps,
Thanks, |

I haven't tried this but I'd guess resetting the redirect here might solve the problem if I'm understanding the question.
\admin\Security\Register.ascx.vb
' Redirect browser back to home page
Response.Redirect(Convert.ToString(Viewstate("UrlReferrer")), True) |

| I have followed these steps, and I have the login page working correctly. However, I cannot get the registration page to show up. It just shows a blank page when you click on register. If the user is already logged in, then the acc't information does work correctly, and you can manage your acct. Any thoughts are greatly appreciated.

Same problem here; blank page displays when a new user clicks the register button.
It looks like DNN is not redirecting properly, as the redirect URL is now:
/Registration/tabid/111/ctl/returnurl/Default.aspx
...still dropping the ctl in there, which might be the problem?

About the blank registration page:
I found some directions from this post http://dnnblog.venexus.com/DNN+453+Redirect+For+ReturnURL+Issue.aspx
I made the changes mentioned at the bottom of that post but then only the Registration module would show.... 
I noticed that the same function was being called both in the offending code and the solution (NavigateURL()). However the calls differed in the number of parameters 
Soooooo.... I decided to call the function this way:
Response.Redirect(NavigateURL(PortalSettings.UserTabId), True)
Notice how I pass only one parameter to the NavigateURL() function (I.E I ask the function to simply navigate to a TAB....)... and BINGO!
My custom page gets displayed the way it should.
Hope this helps |

"I don’t know of a method for re-directing to another page after a user has logged in, if you find one I would be very interested as I’ve wanted to do this a few times."
I believe that the answer for this is go to Admin>User Accounts>Click User Settings link>Under User Account Settings>
You can select a page to redirect to after successful login Redirect After Login:
You can select a page to redirect to after successful login
You can select a page to redirect the user to, on logout. Redirect After Logout:
You can select a page to redirect the user to, on logout.
You can select a page to redirect the user to, on successful registration. Redirect After Registration: |

| Hello Lee,
I need to change Profile and Manage Password pages too. I need this because I integrate DNN with an LMS so email and password must be the same in both systems.
How can I do that?

If you want to authenticate DotNetNuke logins against your LMS database, then you might be a candidate for using a third-party authentication module.
I've used the External Database Authentication Module from Iowa Computer Gurus with success. Depending on how your LMS is set up, something like this may work for you, and it's a quite painless process. There is also a source-code version available if you need to do some customization.

Well I have already implemented a SSO engine so users are authenticated against DNN and can access LMS without retype username and password.
The question here is relative to the password management; if a DNN user change his/her password inside DNN I need to replicate the change inside LMS or the SSO will fail.
Again if a DNN user change his/her email address, since inside LMS I can send messages to users, I need to update this or I will send messages to no more valid addresses.
Of course LMS is considered a "child" system so changes happens only inside DNN.
Thanks

The site I'm building is DNN 05.00.01 and I need to build a custom registration page. I've tried to follow instructions ...
* Create a New Page
* Add the user account module and any other modules you require
* Go to the admin menu / site settings
* / Advanced Settings / User Page
* Select the new page that you have created
* Click on update
Makes perfect sense except I don't seem to have a user account module to add, or a registration module???? I only have ACCOUNT LOGIN. It's also not a module listed as being available for installation.
Many thanks for your advice. |

Hello,
for DNN 5:
- Create a New Page
- Add the Users and Roles module - this will add 3 modules to the page, the security roles module, the user accounts module (for managing users) and the user account module (for user registration and editing of profile).
- Delete the security roles module and the user accounts module from the page
- This will just leave the user account module on the page, add any additional modules to the page that you require
- Go to the admin menu / site settings
- / Advanced Settings / User Page
- Select the new page that you have created
- Click on update

Hi,
I realize this is an old post but I am having an issue or maybe more this is a question. I have set up the user page, login page and home page. When my users login/register, I would like them to be taken the user page. But even though I have the module (user module) on the page in which I want them to go, they are still taken to the home page once logged in. I am using ver 4.9.4. what am I doing wrong?
