I am trying to create a custom login form with Umbraco 7.6.2 I created a partial view for the form, a model and a surface controller based on Umbraco.Web.Mvc.SurfaceController.
After all that I get the error:
Cannot bind source type 'name of my model' to model type Umbraco.Core.Models.IPublishedContent.
Controller:
public class UserSurfaceController : Umbraco.Web.Mvc.SurfaceController
{
//
// GET: /User/
public ActionResult Index()
{
return View();
}
[HttpGet]
public ActionResult Login()
{
return View();
}
[HttpPost]
public ActionResult Login(Models.UserModel user)
{
if (ModelState.IsValid)
{
if (user.IsValid(user.UserName, user.Password))
{
FormsAuthentication.SetAuthCookie(user.UserName, user.RememberMe);
return RedirectToAction("Index", "Home");
}
else
{
ModelState.AddModelError("", "Login data is incorrect!");
}
}
return View(user);
}
public ActionResult Logout()
{
FormsAuthentication.SignOut();
return RedirectToAction("Index", "Home");
}
}
Model:
public class UserModel
{
[Required]
[Display(Name = "User name")]
public string UserName { get; set; }
[Required]
[DataType(DataType.Password)]
[Display(Name = "Password")]
public string Password { get; set; }
[Display(Name = "Remember on this computer")]
public bool RememberMe { get; set; }
/// <summary>
/// Checks if user with given password exists in the database
/// </summary>
/// <param name="_username">User name</param>
/// <param name="_password">User password</param>
/// <returns>True if user exist and password is correct</returns>
public bool IsValid(string _username, string _password)
{
if (_username == "username" && _password == "password")
{
return true;
}
else
{
return false;
}
}
}
View:
@inherits Umbraco.Web.Mvc.UmbracoViewPage<IPublishedContent>
@{
Layout = "Master.cshtml";
}
@Html.Partial("User", new namespace.UserModel());
Partial view:
@model namespace.UserModel
<div role="content">
<div class="container">
<div class="row">
<div class="col">
@using (Html.BeginUmbracoForm<namespace.Controllers.UserSurfaceController>("Login", "UserSurface"))
{
<div>
<fieldset>
<legend>Login</legend>
<div class="editor-label">
@Html.LabelFor(u => u.UserName)
</div>
<div class="editor-field">
@Html.TextBoxFor(u => u.UserName)
@Html.ValidationMessageFor(u => u.UserName)
</div>
<div class="editor-label">
@Html.LabelFor(u => u.Password)
</div>
<div class="editor-field">
@Html.PasswordFor(u => u.Password)
@Html.ValidationMessageFor(u => u.Password)
</div>
<div class="editor-label">
@Html.CheckBoxFor(u => u.RememberMe)
@Html.LabelFor(u => u.RememberMe)
</div>
<input type="submit" value="Log In" />
</fieldset>
</div>
}
</div>
</div>
</div>
</div>
What may I be doing wrong here? Considering this is Umbraco 7.6.2.
