    Partial inside a foreach

    Using Umbraco And Getting Started
    Umbraco 7

    On my docType I have a nestedcontent. The type of that nested content is NcHeroShadowBox.

    @foreach(NcHeroShadowBox pillar in Model.GetPropertyValue<IEnumerable<IPublishedContent>>("diversityPillars")) { 
    @Html.Partial("ncHeroShadowBox", pillar);    
}

    I'm getting this error on the code above:

    Cannot bind source type NcHeroShadowBox to model type System.Collections.Generic.IEnumerable

    Hi bh,

    The issue is to do with casting the pillar object to the type that the partial view is expecting. (Depending on your understanding of C# that will either sound fine, or a bit confusing.)

    Either way, in your "ncHeroShadowBox.cshtml" partial-view file, it should start with the line...

    @inherits UmbracoViewPage<...>

    The bit in the angle brackets is the object-type for that this partial-view expects to use as it's @Model. Looking at your error, it appears to start with IEnumerable<...>.

    If you swap that to be...

    @inherits UmbracoViewPage<NcHeroShadowBox>

    ...then hopefully that should solve it.

    Cheers,
    - Lee
