Delete user profiles

The following examples demonstrate deleting of user profiles separately from deleting of the users. For more information, see the Delete users examples. The examples describe how to delete a single user profile or all user profiles of type SitefinityProfile.

Delete a single user profile

To delete a profile, you must get an instance of the profile. In this examples you get an instance of the profile by the ID of the user. For more information, see Query user profiles. Then, you call the DeleteProfile method of the manager. Finally, you save your changes.

using System;
using Telerik.Sitefinity.Security;
using Telerik.Sitefinity.Security.Model;

namespace SitefinityWebApp
{
    public partial class DeleteSingleUserProfile
    {
        public static void DeleteUserProfile(Guid userId)
        {
            UserProfileManager profileManager = UserProfileManager.GetManager();
            UserManager userManager = UserManager.GetManager();

            User user = userManager.GetUser(userId);

            if (user != null)
            {
                SitefinityProfile profile = profileManager.GetUserProfile<SitefinityProfile>(user);

                profileManager.Delete(profile);

                profileManager.SaveChanges();
            }
        }
    }
}

Delete all user profiles

To delete all profiles of type SitefinityProfile, you call the DeleteProfilesForProfileType method and pass the SitefinityProfile as a type.

using Telerik.Sitefinity.Security;
using Telerik.Sitefinity.Security.Model;

namespace SitefinityWebApp
{
    public class DeleteAllUserProfiles
    {
        public static void DeleteAllUserProfilesMethod()
        {
            UserProfileManager profileManager = UserProfileManager.GetManager();

            profileManager.DeleteProfilesForProfileType(typeof(SitefinityProfile));

            profileManager.SaveChanges();
        }
    }
}
