MVC 4 support

[jyarbro]

MVC 4 seems to support the UserAdministration view only after the MvcMembership Web.config is overwritten with the contents of a MVC 4 web.config.

I'm not following. What needs to be changed?

Could be something as simple as updating the readme on the front page for how to handle MVC 4. Not sure if there are further changes that need to be made to support it, I just wanted to bring this one up as one of the issues I've encountered with a fresh install.

As an ASP.NET noob, I'm coding on the shoulders of giants here and when things aren't explicitly spelled out in the setup instructions, it can cause either hours of heartache or just throwing ones hands in the air and quitting.

Just want to help the next guy :)

Could you use your source control system to provide a diff of the two web.configs so I can see what changed?

I'll guess and say he's probably talking about these two settings that are required for the "old" membership providers to work in ASP.NET MVC 4:

<add key="enableSimpleMembership" value="false" />
<add key="autoFormsAuthentication" value="false" />
