Changing the Identity Database for MVC 5 / ASP.NET / .Net 4.5

Re-targeting your authentication to a different database

All you really need to do is update the connectionString part of the

<connectionStrings><add name="..." connectionString="CHANGE THIS HERE" .../>

In IdentityModels.cs, public class ApplicationUser { ... [Add a property] ...} // This adds the property to the user profile.
If this is code first in the package manager:
1. # Enable-migration
2. # Add-migration [new-name]
3. # Update-database
Change AccountViewModels.cs, public class RegisterViewModel { ... [Add a property] ...}
Update Register.cshtml [Add code for new property]
AccountController.cs Add: {{{user.[New Property] = model.[New Property]
