Model Binding is not working, parameter "model" is showing null in the Create Method while debugging [duplicate] - asp.net-mvc

Question

I am just trying to learn MVC and facing some issues.When I am submitting my partial view, I am getting null in Model Blog inside Create Method.
What I am doing wrong and what is the right approach?
View(Index.cshtml)
#model IEnumerable<Samples.Controllers.Blog>
#{
ViewBag.Title = "Index";
}
<h2>Index</h2>
<p>
#Html.ActionLink("Create New", "Create")
</p>
<table class="table">
<tr>
<th>Sample</th>
<th>URL</th>
<th>Name</th>
</tr>
#foreach (var item in Model) {
<tr>
<td>
#Html.ActionLink("Edit", "Edit", new { /* id=item.PrimaryKey */ }) |
#Html.ActionLink("Details", "Details", new { /* id=item.PrimaryKey */ }) |
#Html.ActionLink("Delete", "Delete", new { /* id=item.PrimaryKey */ })
</td>
<td>
#item.URL
</td>
<td>
#item.Name
</td>
</tr>
}
</table>
#Html.Partial("_CreateBlog", new Samples.Controllers.Blog())
Partial View(_CreateBlog.cshtml)
#model Samples.Controllers.Blog
#using (Html.BeginForm("Create","Sample",FormMethod.Post))
{
#Html.AntiForgeryToken()
<div class="form-horizontal">
<h4>Blog</h4>
<hr />
#Html.ValidationSummary(true, "", new { #class = "text-danger" })
<div class="row">
#Html.LabelFor(model => model.URL)
#Html.EditorFor(model => model.URL)
</div>
<div class="row">
#Html.LabelFor(model => model.Name)
#Html.EditorFor(model => model.Name)
</div>
<div class="form-group">
<div class="col-md-offset-2 col-md-10">
<input type="submit" value="Create" class="btn btn-default" />
</div>
</div>
</div>
}
<div>
#Html.ActionLink("Back to List", "Index")
</div>

new Blog{ Name="Bob", URL= "www.twitter.com"}
};
}
// GET: Sample
public ActionResult Index()
{
return View(lstBlogs);
}
public ActionResult IndexWithDynamicView()
{
return View(lstBlogs);
}
[HttpPost]
public void Create(Blog blog)
{
}
}
public class Blog
{
public string Name;
public string URL;
}
}

Answer 1

Your class Blog only contains fields, not properties so the DefaultModelBinder cannot set their values. Change it add getters/setters
public class Blog
{
public string Name { get; set; }
public string URL { get; set; }
}

Answer 2

Maybe this answer relates to your question: Is there a reason why the default modelbinder doesn't bind to fields?
Pay attention at DefaultModelBinder, ModelBinderContext, ModelMetadata. This explains it all.
