    Create template makes Master pages instead of MVC views

    Hi folks,

    Ok this is just driving me crazy.

    I have my system set to MVC mode but when I create a new template Umbraco is creating Master Pages instead of MVC Razor Views. It didn't used to do this, just started doing it tonight.

    How can I ensure that when I create a Template manually I will get a MVC template.

    UPDATE: I've now got a problem where Umbraco did create a MVC View but after editing the HTML in it and publishing, now there is a Master Page instead. On top of that, inside Visual Studio I now have both, but when I try to open the MVC View file it tells me the file does not exist. When I refresh the site files in Visual Studio it still shows both templates.

    Argh :\ Help.

    Old post, but this is the answer:

    In the configuration xml file, "umbracoSettings.config", you need to change it from "Webforms" to "Mvc"

    <!-- To switch the default rendering engine to MVC, change this value from WebForms to Mvc -->
<!-- Do not set useAspNetMasterPages to false, it is not relevant to MVC usage -->
<defaultRenderingEngine>Mvc</defaultRenderingEngine>

    taken from here
