Partial View linkage to controller and model [duplicate] - asp.net-mvc

#Html.Action in Asp.Net Core

Closed 6 years ago.
I am new to .Net and MVC and I seem to hit a problem that I can´t fix. I am trying to follow a couple of tutorials but I have failed when it comes to partial views. I looked up a lot of answers here and on different websites and still nothing works. I can´t figure out what I am doing wrong.
This is my partial controller:
public class PartialController : Controller
{
public ActionResult _PartialView()
{
var model = new Partial();
model.Count = 2;
return PartialView(model);
}
}
And this is my Partial View:
#model WebApplication1Tutorial.Models.Partial
<div>
The magic number is:
#Html.DisplayFor(model => model.Count)
</div>
I call this view in Index.cshtml by the following command:
<div>
#Html.Partial("/Views/Partial/_PartView.cshtml",new Partial())
</div>
And finally this is the model:
public class Partial
{
public int Count { get; set; }
}
Everything that I tried comes up with the webpage displaying the text and the number 0. I really have no idea what else to do. I know it is something easy but I can´t see it.
Thanks for the help.
Edit. The code for the index view:
#model MovieGenreViewModel
#{
ViewData["Title"] = "Index";
}
<h2>Index</h2>
<p>
<a asp-action="Create">Create New</a>
</p>
<form asp-controller="Movies" asp-action="Index" method="get">
<p>
<select asp-for="movieGenre" asp-items="Model.genres">
<option value="">All</option>
</select>
Title: <input type="text" name="SearchString" >
<input type="submit" value="Filter" />
</p>
</form>
<table class="table">
<thead>
<tr>
<th>
#Html.DisplayNameFor(model => model.movies[0].Genre)
</th>
<th>
#Html.DisplayNameFor(model => model.movies[0].Price)
</th>
<th>
#Html.DisplayNameFor(model => model.movies[0].ReleaseDate)
</th>
<th>
#Html.DisplayNameFor(model => model.movies[0].Title)
</th>
<th>
#Html.DisplayNameFor(model => model.movies[0].Rating)
</th>
<th></th>
</tr>
</thead>
<tbody>
#foreach (var item in Model.movies) {
<tr>
<td>
#Html.DisplayFor(modelItem => item.Genre)
</td>
<td>
#Html.DisplayFor(modelItem => item.Price)
</td>
<td>
#Html.DisplayFor(modelItem => item.ReleaseDate)
</td>
<td>
#Html.DisplayFor(modelItem => item.Title)
</td>
<td>
#Html.DisplayFor(modelItem => item.Rating)
</td>
<td>
<a asp-action="Edit" asp-route-id="#item.ID">Edit</a> |
<a asp-action="Details" asp-route-id="#item.ID">Details</a> |
<a asp-action="Delete" asp-route-id="#item.ID">Delete</a>
</td>
</tr>
}
</tbody>
</table>
<div>
#{ Html.RenderAction("_PartialView"); }
</div>

Answer 1

When you pass your partial like with the #Html.Partial, you also pass a new Model and the _PartialView() method is not invoked so the model is not populated with the value 2.
You could use #Html.Action helper:
<div>
#Html.Action("/Views/Partial/_PartView.cshtml")
</div>
