Asp.net's LoggedInTemplate never displays, only AnonymousTemplate -

i'm using microsoft visual studio 2013 build website. want master page different depending on whether 1 logged in or not. end use <loggedintemplate> , <anonymoustemplate>. unanswered question @ loggedintemplate not displayed, however, latter displayed, regardless of whether or not i'm logged in. code @ master page follows:

        <asp:loginview id="loginview2" runat="server">         <loggedintemplate>             <ul id="loggedin">                 <li><asp:loginname id="loginname1" runat="server"/>user page</li>                 <li><asp:loginstatus id="loginstatus1" runat="server" /><a href="logout.aspx">log out</a></li>             </ul>         </loggedintemplate>         <anonymoustemplate>             <ul>                 <li><a href="registration.aspx">register</a></li>                 <li><a href="login.aspx">log in</a></li>             </ul>         </anonymoustemplate>         </asp:loginview> 

my master page's .cs page not contain code (except default lines created @ page creation). <loggedintemplate> require code in associated .cs work? , if so, need?

my logout page, behaves differently based on whether 1 logged in or not (log out , display page if logged in; redirect login page if not logged in), works fine far have been able tell, suggesting me login procedure works fine. sure i'm login procedure, if <loggedintemplate> not require code in .cs file, i'll post code on login , logout pages see if there problem there.

update: code in login.aspx.cs file is

    protected void loginbutton_click(object sender, eventargs e) {     sqlconnection conn = new sqlconnection(configurationmanager.connectionstrings["registrationsconnectionstring"].connectionstring);     conn.open();      string checkuser = "select count(*) registrationdata username='" + usernamelogin.text + "' ";      sqlcommand com = new sqlcommand(checkuser, conn);     int temp = convert.toint32(com.executescalar().tostring());     conn.close();     if (temp == 1)     {         conn.open();         string checkpassword = "select password registrationdata username='" + usernamelogin.text + "' ";         sqlcommand passcom = new sqlcommand(checkpassword, conn);         string password = passcom.executescalar().tostring().replace(" ", "");         if (password == passwordlogin.text)         {             session["new"] = usernamelogin.text;             response.redirect ("default.aspx");         }         else response.write("password incorrect");     }     else     {         response.write("user not exist");     }  } 

for clarity, web.config (just automatically generated code) is:

    <?xml version="1.0"?>      <configuration>      <connectionstrings>     <add name="mwd" connectionstring="data source=p425\sqlexpress;initial catalog=mwd;integrated security=sspi;" />     <add name="registrationsconnectionstring" connectionstring="data source=(localdb)\v11.0;attachdbfilename=|datadirectory|\registrations.mdf;integrated security=true"         providername="system.data.sqlclient" />     </connectionstrings>     <system.web>       <compilation debug="true" targetframework="4.5.1" />       <httpruntime targetframework="4.5.1" />     </system.web>    <appsettings>     <add key="validationsettings:unobtrusivevalidationmode" value="none" />   </appsettings>  </configuration> 

what have in autentication mode on webconfig file?

try similar this:

<authentication mode="forms">   <forms name="test" loginurl="login.aspx" defaulturl="default.aspx" cookieless="usecookies" path="/"></forms> </authentication> 

another way check if getting username using user.identity.name, can debug in code behind of master page.
