Hello all, I create a project in visual studio and install umbraco via nuget. then Customize the database and install umbraco then created one table in database and try to insert values using surface controller but I'm not able to call the controller.

Below code Shows the Model

 public class test
{
    public string Title { get; set; }
    public string Genre { get; set; }
    public int Year { get; set; }
}

below code shows the controller

[HttpPost]
    public ActionResult CreateComment(test model)
    {
       //Data insertion code goes here.
       return PartialView("ContactForm", "Movie");
    }

After that i created one partial view.

@Model DbIWithUmbraco.Models.test
@using (Html.BeginForm("CreateComment","MovieSurface"))
{
    <div>
        @Html.LabelFor(Model => Model.Title)
    </div>
    <div>
        @Html.TextBoxFor(Model => Model.Title)
    </div>
    <div>
        @Html.LabelFor(x => Model.Genre)
    </div>
    <div>
        @Html.TextBoxFor(x => Model.Genre)
    </div>
    <div>
        @Html.LabelFor(x => Model.Year)
    </div>
    <div>
        @Html.TextAreaFor(x => Model.Year)
    </div>
    <input type="submit" />
}

After i create template and call this Partial view.

But i m not able to call the controller.

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks

Ronak Panchal.

Does your SurfaceController inherit from SurfaceController? Can you add the class definition of your SurfaceController?

hello mark,

Thanks for sharing your point of view !

Yes my SurfaceController inherit from SurfaceController.

Below is my full code

public class MovieSurfaceController : Umbraco.Web.Mvc.SurfaceController
    {
        // GET: Movie
        public ActionResult Index()
        {
            return View();
        }

        [HttpPost]
        public ActionResult CreateComment(Company model)
        {
            //model not valid, do not save, but return current Umbraco page
            if (!ModelState.IsValid)
            {
                //Perhaps you might want to add a custom message to the ViewBag
                //which will be available on the View when it renders (since we're not 
                //redirecting)          
                return CurrentUmbracoPage();
            }

            //Add a message in TempData which will be available 
            //in the View after the redirect 
            TempData.Add("CustomMessage", "Your form was successfully submitted at " + DateTime.Now);

            //redirect to current page to clear the form
            //return RedirectToCurrentUmbracoPage();
            return RedirectToUmbracoPage(1059);
        }

    }

Rather than Html.BeginForm, try Html.BeginUmbracoForm.

That will inject a hidden field with a name of "ufprt" that helps Umbraco's routing engine fine the appropriate surface controller.

Hi Ronak,

you should definitly use BeginUmbracoForm as it's the right way to call the controller.

The code you posted seems correct to me. Will try to check if I find some old code if mine to share.

Regards David
