Can i override only some specific elements like footer of layout page for one particular view.
i am using asp mvc core 2
You can create an action filter to override Layout file, but if you want to remove it, you will have to create an empty layout file instead of assigning the Master property to null. Like this:
public class OverrideLayoutFilter : ActionFilterAttribute
{
public override void OnResultExecuting(ResultExecutingContext filterContext)
{
var view = filterContext.Result as ViewResult;
view.MasterName = "_LayoutEmpty";
base.OnResultExecuting(filterContext);
}
}
Controller:
public class HomeController : Controller
{
[OverrideLayoutFilter]
public ActionResult Index()
{
return View();
}
}
Now your new layout file needs to be placed in SharedFolder and you only put the RenderBody function inside
_LayoutEmpty.cshtml
@RenderBody()
