Hi, I'm wondering if it's possible to expose the users password update functionality through Razor Host. I'm fairly familiar with DNN but not so much the core of it so I could use some help with this one.

We're using DNN 6.1.4 for our sport league's web site but I've also built a pretty extensive backend so that  we can keep a lot of information about each individual member but also expose it a bit more easily than the Profile module allows. We maintain roughly 100 or so different data points about a member it a lot of it is also deals with lookups and lists. So I've  been doing it all through Razor and custom tables which has worked very well for what we need.

The problem that I'm having is that I cannot get away from the user module which is completely disconnected from the rest of their data in terms of how it all interacts. The only thing in the  user profiles we use are F & L Name, Display Name and Password. Through the DNN Razor Helpers I can expose all of that just fine except for the password so it's become really confusing as to how the user is to update that without also displaying a ton of information they may have filled out elsewhere (like address).

I imagine it's possible to expose this if I correctly reference that aspect of the application through @Using; problem is, I just have no idea what I absolutely need to be referencing. Also, I imagine there are a number of other things that go on for this process like encrypting and decrypting the password, hashing it, etc. So I need to make sure that I do all of that as well.

Any help on being able to accomplish this is greatly appreciated!
