ViewBag and/or Tempdata not showing

First Last

6y1.2k.NET

I hard code values into the ViewBag and TempData but they do NOT show in the view.

Why?

I am NOT redirecting, just rendering - returning the view name with a model class.

Part of the BlogPublishedSelectionCriteria.cshtml view:

@model GbngWebClient.Models.BlogPublishedSelectionCriteriaVM

Layout = "~/Views/Shared/_LayoutUser.cshtml";

}

@TempData["errormessage"]

@ViewBag.errormessage

The last part of the action method before returning the view:

ViewBag.errormessage = "test";

TempData["errormessage"] = "test";

return View("BlogPublishedSelectionCriteria", blogPublishedSelectionCriteriaVM);

The word 'test' is not showing in the tag. But is in the viewbag.

However, I removed the bootstrap CSS classes from the tag and reran and still nothing.

Also, on my 'sign in' view, I use the same bootstrap CSS classes and view bag and it works fine.

My signin method returns just the view model:
return View(signInVM);

Unlike the one I am having an issue here which returns the view name and view model:
return View("BlogPublishedSelectionCriteria", blogPublishedSelectionCriteriaVM);

Here are the Bootstrap CSS classes in the console:

I guess it clearly some style issue. Is bootstrap use in this razor page ??
Also check the Viewbag and tempdata property without bootstraping. Also I am wonder that if you use return view("action") - Only action name should use there is no require to use controller.

If still is not working then may be their is some cookie issue i guess.

Its a style issue buddy. check for class . alert in the bootstrap and check for color settings.
