Adding the Admin folder and a page

It is accomplished by creating a new directory in solution explorer called administrator and adding an ASP.Net master page.

To create folders for restricted access

  1. In Solution Explorer, right-click the root of your Web site, click New Folder, and then name the folder AdminPages.

    This folder will contain a page that is accessible to only users who are assigned to the Admin role. You will create roles later in the walkthrough.

  2. Right-click the root of your Web site, click New Folder, and then name the folder MembersPages.

    This folder will contain a page that is accessible to all users who are logged in.

To add pages to the folders

  1. In Solution Explorer, right-click the AdminPages folder and select Add New Item.

  2. Select a Web Form, and in the Name box, enter Admin.aspx. Select the Select master page box, and then click Add.

  3. In the Select a Master Page dialog box, under Contents of folder, select Site.master, and then click OK.

  5. In the Formatting toolbar, use the Block Format drop-down list to format the text as Heading 1.

  6. Save and close the Admin.aspx page.

  7. Right-click the MembersPages folder and select Add New Item.

  8. Add a second Web Form page, name it Members.aspx, and select Site.master as its master page.
