Placeholder in Root Layout using MVC

Posted by Community Admin on 27-Jul-2016 00:00

I am using MVC for my layout templates. I have placeholders in both the root and the nested templates. I am able to add content to the placeholders when creating a page. But when I view those pages the content is not inserted.

Here is an example of my templates.

Root.cshtml

<html>

<head>

</head>

<body>

<div class="sfPublicWrapper" id="PublicWrapper">

<div>

@Html.SfPlaceHolder("TopNavigation")

</div>

@RenderBody()

<div>

@Html.SfPlaceHolder("Footer")

</div>

</body>

</html>

Nested.cshtml

@

Layout = "~/Mvc/Views/Shared/AssociateRoot.cshtml";

@Html.SfPlaceHolder("ModalContent")

@Html.SfPlaceHolder("InnerContent")

<div>More Content</div>

Any content put in the Footer placeholder or the navigation placeholder is not displayed. Any content placed in ModalContent or InnerContent does display. No errors are received that I can see.

Hi Jeff. Nesting and placeholders working really bad together. You can check similar thread: www.sitefinity.com/.../nested-layouts-not-working-with-section-helpers
