Hello Rama,
Are you calling an action from your _Layout.cshtml file? If so, make sure you are returning it as a partial view inside the action.
For example, inside your _Layout.cshtml you may have this call:
Code:
<div class="navbar-collapse collapse">
<ul class="nav navbar-nav">
@{Html.RenderAction("TopMenu", "Menu");}
</ul>
</div>
Your action result should look like this:
Code:
public ActionResult TopMenu()
{
// Logic to fetch topMenu here
return PartialView("TopMenu", topMenus);
}
Note that I am returning "PartialView" in this case, NOT "View". Let me know if this helps.
Also, did you custom code your login system? Typically the redirect should be to "~/Account/Login", not "~/Account/Register".
Lastly, make sure you don't have an [Authorize] tag on the "~/Account/Login" or "~/Account/Register" Actions inside the "Account" Controller. Otherwise you will get a redirect loop.
