partial page can not be directly shown as view, they are just logical page and always resides under any parent view. for authentication. step 1. enable forms authentication in mvc. for this add below lines of code in web.config page. "Forms" > "~/Home/Login" > step 2. Create two methos under home controller as shown below [HttpGet] public ActionResult Login(string ReturnUrl) { ViewBag.ReturnUrl = ReturnUrl; return View(); } [HttpPost] public ActionResult Login(string UserName, string Password, bool RememberMe, string ReturnUrl) { if (UserName == "sachin" & Password == "sachin@7777" ) { FormsAuthentication.SetAuthCookie(UserName, RememberMe); return Redirect(ReturnUrl); } return View( "Login" ); } step 3. design the login page (Login Action (get)) @{ ViewBag.Title = "Login" ; } Login "/Home/Login" method= "post" > User Name:@Html.TextBox( "UserName" ) Password :@Html.Password( "Password" ) Remember Me:@Html.CheckBox( "RememberMe" ) @Html.Hidden( "ReturnUrl" , new { @value = ViewBag.ReturnUrl}) "submit" >Login step 4.decorate the methods which needs to be validated with [Autorize] [Authorize] public ActionResult Post() { return View(); } for more visit my article https://www.sharpencode.com/article/MVC/filters-in-asp-net-mvc/authorize
