You can use the ProfileEventArgs class during the Personalize event to specify a custom user profile. If, when the Personalize event completes, the ProfileEventArgs parameter of the ProfileEventHandler has its Profile property set to a value that’s not null, then the ProfileModule uses the value of the Profile property in the current HttpContext.

The following code example shows the Personalize event declared in the Global.asax file for an application. The event code loads a user profile based on role membership.


public void Profile_Personalize(object sender, ProfileEventArgs args)
{
  ProfileCommon userProfile;

  if (User == null) { return; }

  userProfile = (ProfileCommon)ProfileBase.Create(User.Identity.Name);

  if (User.IsInRole("Administrators"))
    userProfile = userProfile.GetProfile("Administrator");
  else
    if (User.IsInRole("Users"))
      userProfile = userProfile.GetProfile("User");
    else
      userProfile = userProfile.GetProfile("Guest");

  if (userProfile != null)
    args.Profile = userProfile;
}
