    Passing parameters to a partial

    Hello. I'm trying to pass some parameters to a partial, but i can't figure out how to do it it.

    What i want to achieve

    I want to be able to use the same partial multiple times in a template, but pass it the value of different aliases each time.

    lets say i have a partial which renders a textstring and textarea.

    I would like to be able to do something like this

    @await Html.PartialAsync("PartialName", name = "@Model.Value("title"), image = "@Model.Value("text")")
    
    @await Html.PartialAsync("PartialName", name = "@Model.Value("IntroTitle"), image = "@Model.Value("IntroText")")
    

    To render this content

    enter image description here

    If i had an Array of items i would do this, but that is not the case.

    @foreach (var item in collection)
    {
        @await Html.PartialAsync("PartialName", item)
    }
    

    I found this in the docs, but i can't figure out how to make it work.

    you should be able to pass it as a viewdata object

    new { name = "@Model.Value("IntroTitle"), image = "@Model.Value("IntroText")" }
    

    Then access it in the partial

    ViewData["name"];

    I cant seem to make that work, im sure im doing something completely wrong :)

    Render:

    @await Html.PartialAsync("PartialName", new { name = "Thomas"})
    

    Inside partial

    var name = ViewData["name"];  
    <p>@name</p>

    I just checked my code and I am doing this to pass the data

    new ViewDataDictionary(this.ViewData) { { "Name", "Checkout" }, { "Header", "Checkout" } }
    

    Then in Partial

    var name = ViewData["Name"].ToString();

    TBH, I have switched most of my partials to use viewcomponents in Umbraco 9+ so most of my partials are just static html, anything requiring data to be passed I have moved to viewcomponents.

    But the example above is still working :)

    Thanks alot! I'll take a look at viewcomponents, sounds like that is a better solution ;)
