    Can I use @Html.Partial("FooterPartial") with a doc type in Master.cshtml ??

    Templates, (partial) views and macros
    Umbraco 7

    Hi guys, I want to bind my FooterPartial partial view to my FooterColumns document type and use the FooterPartial in Master.cshtml. enter image description here

    But the home page is giving me "Cannot bind source content type Umbraco.Web.PublishedContentModels.Home to model type Umbraco.Web.PublishedContentModels.FooterColumns."

    I think the @RenderBody() in the Master.cshtml is rendering the Home Doc type.

    Is there anything I can do? I just want the content editor able to edit the footer which is rendered in Master.cshtml

    Cheers,

    A

    Hi Adrian,

    Yes, you should be able to do that.

    In the call to Html.Partial() you can explicitly specify the Model as a second argument, so something like this:

    var siteRoot = Model.Site();
var footer = siteRoot.Children<FooterColumns>().FirstOrDefault();

@Html.Partial("FooterPartial", footer)

    (This assumes your views inherit from UmbracoViewPage and that your FooterColumns document is a child of the "site" node, e.g. Home).

    Hope that helps,

    /Chriztian
