So, this is what I've been up to

Apart from fiddling with my 3D printer, I have been writing some other Forum code This time it is a plugin for Umbraco. It is written in .Net Core which is the latest Microsoft .Net incarnation. It is a very different beast entirely to the older .Net frameworks so lots of learning new stuff and hair pulling along the way It is still a WIP but should be releasing it soon, something else new, I have had to learn how to create NuGet packages.
Demo site: https://umbraco.themediawizards.co.uk/forums/
I'm not gonna lie and say that I understod all of that but I had a quick look and it looks fine so far, with your skills it can obviously be turned into something good. It's also good to see you still learning stuff, my brain feels kind of full these days so I've kind of lost any basic skills I had but I'm still interested and would I'd still take a good forum over FB & so on, so hopefully you'll come up with something even better...looking forward to seeing it
Sorry not been on line much using all my spare time in between medical stuff. Attended two appointments and had two operations in last two weeks. Originally posted by philsbbs
hope it all went OK and glad to see you back online
Since we arrived I have walked more than in the previous 4 months combined
Waking up to beautiful sunrise and just about perfect temeratures during the day, could definitely get used to this.
It is lovely here, around 20-21 during the afternoon but just breezy enough not to get too hot. It is doing me the world of good, have been steadily increasing my walking and can now manage just about 1600m before I need to take a rest.
Didn't realise you'd been having such problems, sounds like you're in a good place for a bit of recovery though...relax & take it easy, come back fighting
Damp shitty british weather not good for my lungs (Emphysema + Cancer), find it difficult to walk very far at home and struggle to breathe if I go out. Much better here, am now doing 3-4km a day which considering I only managed just under a km when we first got here is a big improvement.
Had an earthquake this morning though which was fun
Sorry been busy again Yea I don't think the weather here is that great for keeping you in the best nick and I'm sure it's catching up with me too after spending so much time out in the cold sitting next to stinky lakes. I certainly hope the sun is doing you a shedload of good, I'm missing it it badly.
Fingers crossed the earthquakes don't get you
I certainly hope the sun is doing you a shedload of good
Well I feel a lot better and my walking has increased since we got here, so I hope so too. Guess I will find out when I get back and have to go for tests at the hospital
Spring is just around the corner, even at my place on the planet Are you back, Huw?Originally posted by Torborg
Not yet stil have 2-3 weeks left. Weather not so good the last couple of weeks, a bt gray and overcast but still better than the UK Really not looking forward to going home
TBH, it is the dampness I can't cope with. It is 23C where we were in Spain and -1 here today Originally posted by HuwR
To be fair coming back here from anywhere warm must be a nightmare right now..I was fishing last weekend and it was pretty unpleasant, hopefully next week onwards it'll start to turn a bit warmer.!
Well, I have beenn playing again Over the last week or so I have been converting the forum to use ASP.NET Core 6, you can see the fruits of my fiddling here You may even be able to log in with your credentials from here (it is an old copy though so if you have changed passwords it might not work)

I might have broke it
I couldn't work out my password so tried to register a new account, I couldn't work out if I was successful or not so I had a look on members and, I got this below..

A bit spare time tonight so I thought I'd have another go at logging in but I get a warning message, should I ignore that and carry on or is it not there anymore? Cheers.

I don't think it is up at the moment. been a bit preoccupied with sorting stuff ready for my semi-retirement and moving to Spain. Finally got the OK from the doctors after several months of tests and courses of antibiotics, so hopefully will start to do some coding soon.
Nice, I've got three friends in Spain and they've never concidered coming back to the UK for a minute, they say it gets a bit hot at times but other than that they love it, certainly hope it works out for you when the time comes Anyway no worries, it was very quiet on here, and at home for once, so I thought I'd have a nose.
Have a good christmas
It's back up again If you have trouble logging in, try using the forgot password link to reset your password.
Posting not currently working, but will do an update after christmas which should fix that.

Spain sounds nice. We have a lot of snow now and it's really cold, getting under -20 the next days . As long as it is warm inside, that's OK. We have to use the wood stove to keep up and we carry a lot of wood inside every day. I like the long dark evenings and the warmth from the stove though.
Why did you need antibiotics and tests? Are you not well?
I'm back in full job now. It’s OK, but a bit tough after over a year in full or partly sick leave. Can't celebrate yet, but I'm optimistic and feel fine .
In the board for the organization where I work, we have a young guy, Bernhard, who is very enthusiastic about the forum. I'm having a meeting with him tomorrow. I hope he can help us move forward with "Spør en biolog"
Why did you need antibiotics and tests? Are you not well?
One of my routine scans showed a build up in the bottom of my right lung which they were concerned about, a biopsy came back as negative, so not Cancer coming back, so was put on several courses of strong antiobiotics which they are happy has cleared it up. Wasn't feeling unwell, just takes a long time with not knowing exactly whats up, but all good in the end The .net core migration is coming along nicely it is so much quicker than the current MVC code, now I'm semi-rtired I'm hoping to get it sorted in the next couple of months.
I will however upload the current code to GitHub and post a link here in the next few days, your new guy might want to take a look.

Double migration then. Both Spain and new forum code. Now i guess it's better for "Spør en biolog" to wait for the new code, not start to use this one?
I think the issue maybe that there are two users with the same email address, so it may be getting confused. May need to change it so you provide a username and email address. I will test that emails are being sent especially to gmail as google can be a real pita when it comes to receiving from other mail servers.
I believe I have worked out the problem, there is an issue in the migration code for Members and it is only creating the new .NET Identity record if you use a valid password, it then fails to find you when you use the forgot password because it didn't create the Identity record However this has highlighted another issue if you have multiple accounts that use the same email address the forgot password process won't know which Member to update, it will also require a username so will need to sort that out too, hopefully I will update the site later today, I will post here if I do so.
Site code updated, you should now receive an email.
You need to attempt to login first, it will create the new identity user and redirect you to the forgot password page, enter your username and you should now get an email to reset your password. We now have a WYSIWYG editor
When I reset the password a new reset password form turns up. Then I go to main page and try to log in, but get message "Registration is not enabled". Then I get the email saying: Your account is locked out, to reset your password, please click this link: https://snitzcore.themediawizards.co.uk/Account/ForgotPassword And i'm back to reset password

I like that you can log in with username OR email address. But I see the problem with people have several users.

Ah, looks like an issue with password reset not unlocking you, I'll take a look.
Im still not able to log in, get the same messages.
Registration not enabled. Email saying User locked out. Reset your password.Originally posted by Torborg
I'll see if I can replicate issue with a test account, I'll also try manually unlocking you
I've been keeping an eye on this topic because I've had similar problems to Tor, either the problems have been intermittent or maybe I haven't been consistent, probably the latter though.
I have a working account now, 'Doughnut2'. I tried to bring 'Doughnut' back to life but when I do the forgot password thingy it says that a link has been sent, but I don't get a link...I'm wondering of it's going to an email address that I don't use anymore. Can you tell/see what email address my Doughnut account uses at all?
I am going to a developers conference to collect an award [^]
