Information on working with partial views in Umbraco
A Partial View (.cshtml file) is a regular view that can be used multiple times throughout your site. A Partial View is used to break up large markup files into smaller components such as header, footer, navigation menu, etc. It helps to reduce the duplication of code. A partial view renders a view within the parent view.
You can create and edit partial views in the Partial Views folder from the Settings section of the Backoffice.
Creating a new partial viewIn the Create menu, there are three options available:
New partial view from snippet
Folder (for keeping the partial views organized)
To create a partial view, go to the Settings section in the Umbraco backoffice and right-click the Partial Views folder. Choose Create. Select New empty partial view and enter a partial view name and click the Save button. You will now see the partial view markup in the backoffice editor.
Created partial viewBy default, the partial view is saved in the Views/Partials folder in the solution.
To create a partial view from the snippet, go to the Settings section in the Umbraco backoffice and right-click the Partial Views folder. Choose Create. Select New empty partial view from snippet. Select the snippet you want to create a partial view for and enter a partial view name. The code snippet you selected is displayed in the backoffice editor. Click the Save button.
