Using @Html.EditorFor(x=>Model) in PartialView
I am trying to Render a form for a model in a partial view. But I can't get it working. Here is my code of the TestForm.cshtml:
```
@model NgakNgakBeach.Models.Reservation
@inherits Umbraco.Web.Mvc.UmbracoTemplatePage

@using (Html.BeginUmbracoForm("MakeReservation", "Reservation",
                                  new { enctype = "multipart/form-data" }, null,                                                                             FormMethod.Post))
{
    @Html.EditorFor(x => Model)
    <input type="submit" />
}
```
What is the trick to get this working?

Error message from VisualStudio 2013:
```
The 'inherits' keyword is not allowed when a 'model' keyword is used.   
```
Thanks!

EDIT: in this tutorial https://our.umbraco.org/documentation/Reference/Mvc/forms/turorial-partial-views shouldn't the CommentViewModel inherit something?

Hi TempleClause,

What I can see from the documentation that you are posting https://our.umbraco.org/documentation/Reference/Mvc/forms/turorial-partial-views, then it just have this
```
@model NgakNgakBeach.Models.Reservation
```
And not both.
```
@model NgakNgakBeach.Models.Reservation
@inherits Umbraco.Web.Mvc.UmbracoTemplatePage
```
Try also to see this post from Stackoverflow. http://stackoverflow.com/questions/21060767/the-inherits-keyword-is-not-allowed-when-a-model-keyword-is-used or if you should have both, then I think from this post http://stackoverflow.com/questions/8127462/the-view-must-derive-from-webviewpage-or-webviewpagetmodel/8127539#8127539 it should be
```
@inherits Umbraco.Web.Mvc.UmbracoTemplatePage
@model NgakNgakBeach.Models.Reservation
```
Hope this helps,

/Dennis

Thanks for the answer, I now noticed that my problem is of a different nature. I try to call
```
@{ Html.RenderPartial("TestForm"); }
```
from a MacroPartial, but that doesn't seem to work. Is this not possible?

Oh and this is not very helpful:
```
Error loading Partial View script (file: ~/Views/MacroPartials/Reservation.cshtml)
```
Is there a way to print out more accurate error messages?

Hi TempleClause

You should be able to see more details about the error by going to the /App_Data/Logs file.

Hope this helps.

Is it not possible to render a PartialView from a MacroPartialView? I'm still getting an error....

In my Reservation.cshtml I have:
```
@{ Html.RenderPartial("TestForm"); }
```
And in my TestForm.cshtml I have:
```
@inherits Umbraco.Web.Mvc.UmbracoTemplatePage
<p>test</p>
```
and I get this error in the log:

Error loading Partial View (file: ~/Views/MacroPartials/Reservation.cshtml). Exception: System.InvalidOperationException: The model item passed into the dictionary is of type 'Umbraco.Web.Models.PartialViewMacroModel', but this dictionary requires a model item of type 'Umbraco.Web.Models.RenderModel'.

Thanks for helping

EDIT:

I don't have any problems calling this from a non MacroPartialView:
```
@{ Html.RenderPartial("TestForm"); }
```
