    <p>I have a bit of a unique situation here. I'm making a web application that is going to have the ability to login with different web applications credentials. For example you can login/register with my site or you can login/register with your YouTube account. I'm not using OpenID because I need to have access to YouTube's data in this case. </p> <p>I'm using ASP.NET MVC 3 EF4 with custom Membership, role, profile providers. </p> <p>The problem is user names can't be unique because someone with a YouTube user name could have the same user name as someone that registered with my site. So I got around with by specifying a user type in my user table. This is pretty much a composite key (user id and user type).</p> <p>I have a custom authorize attribute that is checking for the role that the user is in but now I need to implement a custom IPrincipal because I need to pass a user type. Only problem is where do I store that? the session? </p> <p>Originally I thought this is what the Application table was for, and I had momentary success with that but read there is threading issues, and I was getting session faults all over the place it wasn't that great :(</p> <p>I'm wondering what the best way to do with is because I can't use the overridden methods in the providers because I have to add a UserType parameter to some of the methods, but then this breaks the functionality of the provider.</p> <p>EDIT: I basically need to have the ability to change the ApplicationName at runtime pro-grammatically. I tried doing this, the only problem was when I stopped my development server but left my browser open then ran my dev server again it wouldnt keep the application name.</p> <p>EDIT: I've changed my application to use OAuth, I never found a good solution.</p>

    1. COGreat question. I've had to do this in the past and only 1/2 liked the solution I created. I'll show you some of the code when I get my computer back from my wife. :)

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.

If you are curious you may find further information in the browser console, which is accessible through the devtools (F12).
