Hello,

I am working on a login tutorial and cannot find the Web Site Administration Tool to use to configure asp.net. Here is a link to the tutorial:

https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/previous-versions/aspnet/yh26yfzy(v=vs.100)

I vaguely remember in visual studio 2008 there was a Web Site Administration Tool that you could use to configure your website. Cannot find it in VS 2022.

I look forward to hearing from you. Thank you.

Best Regards

    Hi @AlphaCr8tive ,
    This document is currently out of date and the Site Administration Tool has been removed.

    Maybe you can look at ASP.NET Identity instead, which outlines the old ASP.NET membership and the new ASP.NET identity.
    Identity should be easier to integrate into your application.
