[Solved] Columns.Template not displaying

[Andrew]

i have been trying to use the columns.Template feature of telerik grid but for some reason it doesn't display anything it only shows the column but there's nothing in it. am i missing something?

@( Html.Telerik().Grid(Model)
       .Name("Orders")

       .Columns(columns =>
       {
          //Column which will display the ProductID property of the Product
          columns.Bound(o => o.ProductID);

          columns.Bound(o => o.ProductName).Title("Product");

          //Template column which shows an action link
          columns.Template(o =>
          {
              @Html.ActionLink("Edit", "Edit", new { id = o.ProductID };
          }).Title("Edit");
       })

)

UPDATE:

it seems that it works now but when i try using ajax data binding the columns.template will only show on the 1st load, if i try clicking the refresh button of the telerik grid all the columns.template will disappear. 

if i use it like this:

@( Html.Telerik().Grid(Model)

       .Name("Orders")

          .DataKeys(keys =>
           {
               keys.Add(c => c.ProductID);
           })
          .DataBinding(dataBinding => dataBinding.Ajax()
                            .Select("_SelectAjaxEditing", "Home"))

       .Columns(columns =>

       {

          //Column which will display the ProductID property of the Product

          columns.Bound(o => o.ProductID);

 

          columns.Bound(o => o.ProductName).Title("Product");

 

          //Template column which shows an action link

          columns.Template(o =>

          {

              @Html.ActionLink("Edit", "Edit", new { id = o.ProductID };

          }).Title("Edit");

       })

        

)
