How to get Roles from using SimpleMembership?

Question

I am developing a MVC4 application with SimpleMembership. I have a table - \"userInfo\" in which I am storing user\'s information such as Name, Email, Address, Phone, Role etc.

Answer 1

You can user Roles.GetRolesForUser Method after your user logged in

Gets a list of the roles that the currently logged-on user is in.

Or if you want to check whether current user is in specified role you can use Roles.IsUserInRole Method
