Umbraco 7 Custom Membership Provider use both Umbraco Users and external Members

how can i use in Umbraco 7 the internal Users and roles who use the BackOffice and my custom users and roles (which comes from an external SQL database. i want log in umbraco backoffice with the umbraco users as it is and with seperate Login want use external users. i have already changed the web.config

<add name="mynewMembershipProvider" type="mynewMembershipProvider, mynew" <add name="mynewrovider" type="mynewrsRoleProvider"/>

when i go now to my custom Login i can Login my custom user . but when i try

User.Identity.IsAuthenticated

or

User.IsInRole("xyz") umbraco is always looking at the umbraco roles.

what did i have done wrong best regards Michael

If I understand you correctly, you are leaving CMS and back office Users as-is, and you want to allow Member login on the public facing side of your site with a custom provider?

Did you set the default provider to your new membership provider?

<membership defaultProvider="mynewMembershipProvider">
...
</membership>

The default provider in the membership section should always point to the provider being used for public-facing Members - the backoffice interally asks for the UsersMembershipProvider every time it needs to authenticate, so changing the default will not affect it at all.

It is also possible depending on your set up (I haven't tried this) that if you did not include a <clear/> directive then the original Umbraco member provider is causing problems.

Here is a full working <membership> section using a custom BCrypt hashing provider from an Umbraco 7 install of mine:

<membership defaultProvider="BCryptMembershipProvider" userIsOnlineTimeWindow="15">
    <providers>
        <clear />
        <add 
            name="BCryptMembershipProvider" 
            type="cFront.Web.Security.BCryptMembershipProvider" 
            connectionStringName="umbracoDbDSN" 
            requiresUniqueEmail="0"
        />
        <add name="UsersMembershipProvider" type="umbraco.providers.UsersMembershipProvider" enablePasswordRetrieval="false" enablePasswordReset="false" requiresQuestionAndAnswer="false" passwordFormat="Hashed" />
    </providers>
</membership>
<roleManager enabled="true" defaultProvider="BCryptRoleProvider">
    <providers>
        <clear />
        <add name="BCryptRoleProvider" type="cFront.Web.Security.BCryptRoleProvider" 
            connectionStringName="umbracoDbDSN" 
            availableRoles="SuperUser,Administrator,Manager,User"
        />
    </providers>
</roleManager>
