Will it work on MVC? Because as per your posted thread, it is in aspx.

```
MembershipUser membershipUser = Membership.GetUser();
if (membershipUser != null)
  { string loggedinuser = Membership.GetUser().ToString();
    yourdiv.InnerHtml = loggedinuser;}
```
for the above to work you need
using System.Web.Security; // this enables Membership.
