Custom User.Identity to add property

Question

I customize RoleProvider and MembershipProvider classes

I would like to add one more property in my @User.Identity, as do so?

example:

@User.Identity.About => .About not exist yet

I thought I'd customize IIdentity but do not know where to start.

You need to create your own classes that implement IIdentity and IPrincipal. Then assign them in your global.asax in OnPostAuthenticate.

`Application_PostAuthenticate(object sender, EventArgs e)` or `Application_AuthenticateRequest(object sender, EventArgs e)` what's the difference?? – ridermansb Sep 30 '11 at 14:56
PostAuthenticate is invoked *after* the membershipprovider has authenticated the request. It's therefore the proper place to add your custom identity – jgauffin Sep 30 '11 at 16:47
@jgauffin - Could you please share sample code or link? I have a same problem but I couldn't solve it. – Sasan Nov 25 '18 at 05:01

Just create a wrapper and override Page.User.
