MVC4 - Partial View Model binding during Submit

Question

I have view model which has another child model to render the partial view (below).

public class ExamResultsFormViewModel
{
    public PreliminaryInformationView         


        

Answer 1

You need to create an editor template for PreliminaryInformationViewModel to replace the partial view, then call with Html.EditorFor( m => m.PreliminaryInformation ). Reference this solution. Creating the template should be as simple as moving your partial view to the Views/Shared/EditorTemplates directory. Html.EditorFor(...) will automatically use this template based on the type you're passing in as the model (in this case, PreliminaryInformationViewModel)
