I've read the doc page on user profile properties, and create my own profile file and added a property to it like it says. However, my property doesn't appear anywhere in the actual site. Do i need to edit the various .aspx files to include my property, or is it supposed to appear automagically? 

The only thing I did different from the docs was where I put the config entry for the profile file... i added it to web.config instead of creating a new user.config... does this matter?

here's the setting:

  <add name="DeviceID1"
    type="System.String"
    allowMarkup="false"
    labelResourceKey="DeviceID 1"
    lazyLoad="false"
    requiredForRegistration="false"
    allowAnonymous="false"
    visibleToAnonymous="false"
    visibleToAuthenticated="true"
    visibleToUser="true"
    editableByUser="true"
    regexValidationExpression=""
    regexValidationErrorResourceKey=""
    maxLength="255"
    rows="1"
    columns="50"
    onlyAvailableForRoles=""
    onlyVisibleForRoles=""
    includeHelpLink="false"
      />

i added it at the end of my CustomProfile.config, after signature and before the commented samples. 

and here's my user.config:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<appSettings>
  <add key="mojoProfileConfigFileName" value="CustomProfile.config" />
  <add key="MySqlConnectionString" .../>
</appSettings>
 

might this have something to do with running on mono? and you don't have to repeat the reasons why not to use mono, i've read them. considering switching if i find something that fits my needs. also considering working on mojo/mono to see if i can improve things... either by fixing mojo, or contributing fixes to mono. :)

thanx for your help and for a great product.
