Template for treelist popup editing

[Alan F]

Is there a way to use a template for popup editing in a treeview ?

By default, the popup displays all the model's fields but i want to hide some.

I can't figure out how to do that.

Thanks for your help.

Hello Alan,

You could add partial view in the "Views\Shared\EditorTemplates" folder with the same name as the model bound to the TreeList. For example, adding a partial view with the name "EmployeeDirectoryModel.cshtml" in the folder will display its content when the TreeList is configured to be bound to that model:

@(Html.Kendo().TreeList<Kendo.Mvc.Examples.Models.TreeList.EmployeeDirectoryModel>()

You can also configure the TemplateName property to specify different partial view from the EditorTemplates folder:

.Editable(e => e.Mode("popup").TemplateName("myCustomPopUpTemplate"))

Hope this helps.

Thank you Konstantin. I took the second solution. It's a good start but not working yet. The partial view displays, but the "save" button triggers a 500 error. Data are not binded and the create action receives an empty entity. I there a special way to bind to the model in the partial view ? I used classic @Html.EditorFor(m=>...)
