Can't pass data from model into Partial View

Question

The Issue is I can't pass data from model to PartialView. Here is how I've done it.

My PartialsController.cs

public PartialViewResult _GridView()
    {

        var currentUser = UserManager.FindById(User.Identity.GetUserId());
        var ranks = ApplicationDbContext.Ranks.ToList();

        foreach (var item in ranks)
        {
            if (currentUser.ReputationPoints > item.ReputationPoints && currentUser.ReputationPoints < item.PointsToAdvance)
            {
                currentUser.UserRankId = item.Id;
                ApplicationDbContext.Entry(currentUser).State = EntityState.Modified;
                ApplicationDbContext.SaveChanges();
            }
        }
        var Rank = ApplicationDbContext.Ranks.SingleOrDefault(c => c.Id == currentUser.UserRankId);



        return PartialView(currentUser);
    }

And my Partial View called _GridView.cshtml

@model Destiny.Models.ApplicationUser
@using Microsoft.AspNet.Identity
@if (Request.IsAuthenticated)
{
using (Html.BeginForm("LogOff", "Account", FormMethod.Post, new { id = "logoutForm", @class = "navbar-right" }))
{
    @Html.AntiForgeryToken()

    <ul class="nav navbar-nav navbar-right">
        <li>
            @Html.ActionLink("Zalogowano jako " + Model.CurrentUser.Gamertag, "Index", "Manage", routeValues: null, htmlAttributes: new { title = "Manage" })
        </li>
        <li><a href="javascript:document.getElementById('logoutForm').submit()">Wyloguj</a></li>
    </ul>
}
  }
  else
          {
<ul class="nav navbar-nav navbar-right">
    <li>@Html.ActionLink("Zarejestruj", "Register", "Account",routeValues: null, htmlAttributes: new { id = "registerLink" })</li>
    <li>@Html.ActionLink("Zaloguj", "Login", "Account", routeValues: null, htmlAttributes: new { id = "loginLink" })</li>
</ul>
 }

The partialView demands another ViewModel (Which is used for my Home/Index by the way), and the thing is the fact I am 100% sure that I've done something wrong with passing data, but I don't know what is it. It's my 1st time messing with partial Views.

What error you are seeing? How are you rendering the partial view? Did you debug the code/ — Chetan

The error said that the data passed in the controller is PostList (My view Model) but view demands ApplicationUser. Partial view was rendered this way @Html.Partial("~/Views/Partials/_GridView.cshtml") And it is in _Layout.cshtml which i have passed no model in whatshowever — Jan Paweł Niepsuj

imgur.com/a/5ZjRe It says that Model passed to dictionary is type of Destiny.Models.PostList, meanwhile dictionary demands model Destiny.Models.ApplicationUser. As you can see though, I've passed ApplicationUser to the controller. I suspect that controller doesn't work with this partial at all. — Jan Paweł Niepsuj

use

   @Html.RenderAction

instead of

   @Html.Partial( in the layout –

This Way

 @{Html.RenderAction("_GridView");}
