Hi Annfinn,

Two quick questions, what version of Umbraco are you using and could you please post the content of your /Views/Web.Config file?

Thanks,

Jeavon

Hello,

Thanks for getting back to me.

Web.config:

Version: Umbraco v6.1.5 (Assembly version: 1.0.4993.19246)

The XML looks broken but it's probably just the posting here. Generally the contents looks ok.

Is your MacroPartial being saved in the /Views/MacroPartials folder? Also how are you rendering the Macro, through RTE or in a template (Webforms or Mvc?)?

Hello Jeavon,

I reposted the web.config, dunno why the formatting went brokered! :)

I'm getting the errors I listed in my first post in the /umbraco/#developer -->Scripting files --> *.cshtml file. It wont let me save it. Normally I use WebMatrix. WebMatrix let's me save the file, but it returns an error. I could send you the link to the homepage (the URL page that gets the error) in a PM if you want.

In WebMatrix, the CSHTML files are stored in MacroScripts.

Any thoughts?

p.s. you create them in "Developer -> Partial View Macro Files"

Funny how that worked like a charm! :)

Thanks allot!! :D

To answer your question, I'm using WebForms.

Great, use Partial View Macros for all of your logic, that is the recommend approach for v6/v7 Webforms.

I can currently render macros in webforms like this:

<umbraco:Macro FileLocation="~/MacroScripts/BreadCrumb.cshtml"/>

I don't need to create a Macro in the backoffice.  This method has been great to use with uSiteBuilder.

I want the same funcationality with Partal View Macro.

How would render a Partial View Macro in v6 using webforms without creating a macro in the backoffice?

is working on a reply...
