    User registers. Returns with the generated password. Logs in fine. Then goes
    to the edit profile popup. Password field does not allow value to be edited.

    Is there something in config that I missed?

    Thank you in advance for your help.

    This should be easy...

    To change the password, the user must use the Edit profile link from the login
    page, not the one in ChatRoom/Extra Options.

    If the user is already logged in, it can't change the name and password while
    the other data can be modified.

    This is to protect the consistency of users/usernames lists in chat.
    Otherwise, the user would be kicked right away, after changing either the name
    or the pass while in chat.

    All the best,

    Ciprian M.
