Dear Umbraco Folk,

I am trying to create a MVC page to allow members to modify their user editable member properites:

The Profile.cshtml code below from https://github.com/Shazwazza/UmbracoIdentity includes the block after

@for (var i = 0; i < profileModel.MemberProperties.Count; i++)

(Marked with // <<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<< )

Which displays the collection of Umbraco.Web.Models.ProfileModel.MemberProperties which in my case contains zero properties. However this DOES NOT display the collection of Umbraco.Core.Models.IMember.Properties which contains all the custom properties I have defined which are also available in the Members Section of the Umbraco BackOffice.

Should the Properties accessible at Umbraco.Web.Models.ProfileModel.MemberProperties be the same as those at Umbraco.Core.Models.IMember.Properties ? If not why not ?And what are their relative intended uses and purposes?

(Also, any sample MVC code to edit the Umbraco.Core.Models.IMember.Properties would also be awesome :-) )

Here is the source code for Profile.cshtml

@inherits Umbraco.Web.Mvc.UmbracoViewPage


@using System.Web.Mvc.Html
@using ClientDependency.Core.Mvc
@using TeraTastic.Models.UmbracoIdentity
@using Umbraco.Web
@using Umbraco.Web.Controllers

@{
    var profileModel = Members.GetCurrentMemberProfileModel();

    Html.EnableClientValidation();
    Html.EnableUnobtrusiveJavaScript();

    Html
        .RequiresJs("~/scripts/jquery.validate.hooks.js", 200)
        .RequiresJs("~/scripts/foundation.form.validation.js", 201);

    var success = TempData["ProfileUpdateSuccess"] != null;
}

@if (profileModel != null)
{
if (User.Identity.IsAuthenticated)
{
    if (success)
    {
        @* This message will show if RedirectOnSuccess is set to false (default) *@
        <p>Profile updated</p>
    }

    @Html.Action("ManagePassword", "UmbracoIdentityAccount")

    using (Html.BeginUmbracoForm<UmbProfileController>("HandleUpdateProfile", null, new { @class = "foundationForm" }))
    {
        <fieldset>
            <legend>Edit profile</legend>

            @Html.ValidationSummary("profileModel", true)

            <div class="row">
                <div class="small-12 columns">
                    <label for="@Html.IdFor(m => profileModel.Name)">
                        @Html.DisplayNameFor(m => profileModel.Name)
                        @Html.TextBoxFor(m => profileModel.Name)
                    </label>
                    @Html.ValidationMessageFor(m => profileModel.Name)
                </div>
            </div>

            <div class="row">
                <div class="small-12 columns">
                    <label for="@Html.IdFor(m => profileModel.Email)">
                        @Html.DisplayNameFor(m => profileModel.Email)
                        @Html.TextBoxFor(m => profileModel.Email)
                    </label>
                    @Html.ValidationMessageFor(m => profileModel.Email)
                </div>
            </div>           

            @for (var i = 0; i < profileModel.MemberProperties.Count; i++)     // <<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<
            {
                <div class="row">
                    <div class="small-12 columns">
                        <label for="@Html.IdFor(m => profileModel.MemberProperties[i].Value)">
                            @profileModel.MemberProperties[i].Name

                            @*
                                By default this will render a textbox but if you want to change the editor template for this property you can
                                easily change it. For example, if you wanted to render a custom editor for this field called "MyEditor" you would
                                create a file at ~/Views/Shared/EditorTemplates/MyEditor.cshtml", then you will change the next line of code to
                                render your specific editor template like:
                                @Html.EditorFor(m => profileModel.MemberProperties[i].Value, "MyEditor")
                            *@

                            @Html.EditorFor(m => profileModel.MemberProperties[i].Value)
                            @Html.HiddenFor(m => profileModel.MemberProperties[i].Alias)
                        </label>
                    </div>
                </div>
            }

            <button>Save</button>
        </fieldset>
    }

    @Html.Action("RemoveAccountList", "UmbracoIdentityAccount")

    @Html.Partial("~/Views/UmbracoIdentityAccount/ExternalLoginsList.cshtml", new ExternalLoginListViewModel { Action = "LinkLogin" })
}
}
else
{
<p> Current Member profileModel is null </p>
}

Thanks
