Question

I have _layout1.cshtml in Areas/Book/Views/Shared/_layout1.cshtml and in /Views/Shared/_layout.cshtml .

Areas/Book/Views/Home/Index.cshmtl:

@{
    Layout = "~/Areas/Book/Views/Shared/_layout1.cshtml";    
}

Somehow it stills show the content of _layout1 in Root /Views/Shared instead of in the Areas/Book

Is there any priority when the layout view share the same name?

Answer 1

The code as you posted it here should work. I am using the same successfully here.

Make shure the path is correct and the layout file is where you say it is.

Maybe odd, but what could cause this if the file is there:
If your APP is running with a differen user which does not have access rights to the file it could happen that the file "is not there" for the app.
