Admins unlock an account.

Question

User323983933 posted

Ok, I have seen the code to enable retry lockouts, 

public async Task<ActionResult> Login(LoginViewModel model, string returnUrl)
{
... 

SignInManager.UserManager.DefaultAccountLockoutTimeSpan = new TimeSpan(1, 0, 0);
SignInManager.UserManager.MaxFailedAccessAttemptsBeforeLockout = 5; //5 was default
var result = await SignInManager.PasswordSignInAsync(model.Email, model.Password, model.RememberMe, shouldLockout: true);

now I want to put a link on the user manager screen that 

1. only appears if a user is Retry Locked Out.  (Somehow read the ASPNetUser from the ApplicationUser and check the lockout status)
2. Executes the await UserManager.ResetAccessFailedCountAsync(userId); command when clicked.

the only problem I am having is that the framework has created so many levels of obfuscation that I cant see how to get the lockout status of an "ApplicationUser"

Hi,

Try this code:

if (UserManager.IsLockedOut(user.Id))

//where user is ApplicationUser and UserManager is ApplicationUserManager.

Hi  some_yahoo ,

In ASP.NET Identity 2 , you could use below code to if user is locked-out :

                if (await UserManager.IsLockedOutAsync(user.Id))
                {
                    message = string.Format("Your account has been locked out for {0} minutes due to multiple failed login attempts.", ConfigurationManager.AppSettings["DefaultAccountLockoutTimeSpan"].ToString());
                }

Or the non-async extension method version as @raju dasa suggested .

OK I got it. 

Not sure why but I was not able to call UserManager from my view.  I just added a field to my User object to contain isLockedOut and all is well.

THANKS for the timely and useful answers!
