Seems using boardcontext I can get most of the existing ones .membershipuser .isforumadmin etc (please correct if i'm wrong).

I have added two (Crew and Owner if you want to know), and want to access those to change website behaviours.

How to?

Thanks a millon!

bool RegUser = await BoardContext.Current.Get().IsUserInRoleAsync(BoardContext.Current.MembershipUser, "Registered Users");

if (!RegUser)

{ Nav.NavigateTo("/Forums/Account/Login", true); }

but.....

what about banned and suspended users, are they considered Registered Users? probably a noob question or easily found (happy to be shown where to look for this kind of thing, struggling with trawling so asking early!)

thanks again getting closer and closer to first looks :)

​if (BoardContext.Current.IsGuest)
{
    Nav.NavigateTo("/Forums/Account/Login", true);
}

Banned Users are deleted users and are treated as guest, and as suspended users they only see a blank page.

it works fine for sending someone not logged in to the login page, but someone suspended can see and operate the pages / site, per the pictures attached.

should make sense, let me know if you need anything else, thanks a mill

 backendaccess.jpg You have insufficient rights to see the content. addvenuecode.jpg You have insufficient rights to see the content. suspendeduser.jpg You have insufficient rights to see the content.

if (BoardContext.Current.IsGuest)

{ Nav.NavigateTo("/Forums/Account/Login", true); }

so that will send them to the login if they are not, and then if i'm right, then adding 

  bool IsUnWelcome =

  await BoardContext.Current.Get().IsUserInRoleAsync(BoardContext.Current.MembershipUser, "Banned") ||

  await BoardContext.Current.Get().IsUserInRoleAsync(BoardContext.Current.MembershipUser, "Suspended");

if (IsUnWelcome)

{ Nav.NavigateTo("/Forums/Info/2", true); }

will send the suspended user to that page if they are using my part of the site.

Thanks a lot!

then you only need to add  PageSecurityCheck and UserSuspendCheck filter to your page

https://github.com/YAFNET/YAFNET/blob/f5ed34b8598d185e5a162f81056889f14edd3d6b/yafsrc/YAFNET.Core/BasePages/ForumPage.cs#L38 

The the suspend check is also applied to your custom pages.

  if (BoardContext.Current.IsGuest || BoardContext.Current.PageUser.Suspended > DateTime.Today)

  {

      Navigation.NavigateTo("/Forums/Account/Login", true);

      return;

  }

that does seem to work quite well.

am I missing anything?

Thanks for the prompt replies, I think it's time to look at a quick upgrade to the latest and first publishing!

btw for reference it's a blazor .net core 8 project, and the relevant code that compiles but doesn't seem to do anything is below

using System.Threading.Tasks;

using YAF.Types.Attributes;

using YAF.Core.Filters;

using YAF.Core.Handlers;

using YAF.Types.Constants;

using YAF.Types.Models;

namespace EFMB2.Pages

{

    [PageSecurityCheck]

    [UserSuspendCheck]

    public partial class AddAlbumBase : ComponentBase

    {

        protected CAlbum album = new CAlbum();

instead of 

​BoardContext.Current.PageUser.Suspended > DateTime.Today

​BoardContext.Current.IsSuspended
