Follow on Twitter SharePoint 2010 FBA Pack Released
I’ve just released the SharePoint 2010 FBA Pack on CodePlex:
http://sharepoint2010fba.codeplex.com/
The FBA Pack is a collection of web parts and tools for managing forms based authentication in SharePoint 2010. It is a port of the SharePoint 2007 CKS Forms Based Authentication Solution to SharePoint 2010. It has been changed extensively to work with SharePoint 2010′s claims based authentication and has been restructured to use Visual Studio 2010′s new SharePoint project type.
SharePoint 2010 can be configured out of the box to authenticate against an ASP.NET Membership database, but strangely it does not include any tools for managing membership users and roles, or any web parts to allow new users to register or to change/reset their password. That’s where the FBA Pack comes in – it contains:
User Management
Users can be created, deleted and edited, as well as assigned to Roles or SharePoint groups.
Manage Users Page
Role Management
Roles can be created and deleted.
Manage Roles Page
Change Password Web Part and Page
This highly configurable web part will allow a user to change their password. Additionally a built in Change Password page has been included, with a link to it on the users menu.
Change Password Page
Membership Request Web Part
This highly configurable web part will allow new users to register to site. An email will be sent to the user with their temporary password and instructions to login to the site. As well there is the option to review membership requests.

Password Recovery Web Part
This highly configurable web part will allow a user to reset their password. An email will be sent to he user with their temporary password and instructions on changing it.

Membership Review List
The FBA Pack can be configured to allow new user requests to be moderated. The membership review list displays all new membership requests, which can either be accepted or rejected.

Is this free to use?
This is an open source project, so yes, it’s completely free to use. The source code is also available on CodePlex, so hopefully it will receive even further enhancements from the community.
This looks great, and already testing this for a customer deployment requirement.
Would you prefer feedback here or on codeplex?
Glad to hear it’s already getting some use! For any bug reports or technical questions, please post them on CodePlex.
Perfect timing on this project! I have been working on a blog series regarding extranets in SharePoint 2010, and my next post was on managing users… Thank you!
FBA manager is great! loved the 2007 version..

Thank You! Thank You! Thank You! Thank You! Thank You! Thank You!
Hi,
Great set of webparts. We’ve installed them on our SP Foundation server and worked almost straight away. We are having problems exposing them on the login page. What I’d like is the Membership request webpart to appear on the login page. This is so we don’t have to turn on anonymous access.
Is this possible?
Thanks,
Andrew
It is. Check out the discussion board on the Codeplex site:

Hi,
Is there a way to add additional fields in user management list? for now it’s limited to username, email and full name. I wanted to add like first name and last name.
Thanks,
Davis
There’s no way to do it through configuration. You can edit the code to add the additional fields.
