Ben,
Scenario:
AS Messaging component installed;
Seperate Login page (DNN Default)
Separate Registration (DNN Default)
Site Settings:
- Login page set to page described above;
- Registration Page set to page described above;
- User page set the same as registration page.
You already noticed that the settings were not saved properly in the control panel and as a result the profile view, group list & group view pages are all set to the page that contains the AS messaging component.
When I log in as a regular user I get the following url when hovering my display name:
http://www.domain.com/home/asuid/number.aspx and when I click on the link I am actually brought to that page but it is just the home page. In this setup there is no way that I can enter my profile to adjust my profile settings.
Please keep in mind that I already have this solved by adding the AS profile view to the portal and after that I am brought to the Active Social profile view. I hope this is a better description of the situation.
