Hello DW guys,

Wanted to know how can you get the username of the current user logged to the extranet.
I found this piece of code here, similar thing I want to achieve:
Dim usr As Backend.User
usr = Session("DW_Admin_User")
Only thing I need is to get details on current extranet user.
This should be quite easy... :-)

Regards,
Dmitrij

Hi Dmitrij,

you can try this: 
'Retrieves the current user for the current context.
' If context is Frontend and no user is logged in, Nothing is returned.
Dynamicweb.Modules.UserManagement.User.GetCurrentUser()

Dmitrij

Or if you explicitly want to make sure you're getting the Frontend user, you can do:

 

using Dynamicweb.Modules.UserManagement;

public class UserClass
{
    public static User GetCurrentUser()
    {
        var user = User.get_Current(PagePermissionLevels.Frontend);
        return user;
    }
}
