I was working on cookie to change my website theme. My intention was to save theme name in cookie variable. It can be done by JQuery too but I was trying with .NET.
What was my problem scenario:
After setting the cookie variable I returned a View() but it didn't change the theme :( if reload the page againg then theme changed as expected. that means cookie was actually setting correctly.
my Server side code was like this -
public ActionResult ChangeTheme(string themename = "") //hope you know how to call this ChangeTheme method.
{
HttpCookie cookie = new HttpCookie("Theme");
cookie.Values["ThemeName"] = themename;
cookie.Expires = DateTime.Now.AddDays(365);
Response.Cookies.Add(cookie);
return View("Index"); // this line will be changed
}
Solution:
Index view was returning but theme was not changing first time. I changed that line -
return RedirectToAction("Index", "Home");
Now everything is fine. theme is changing after reloading the page.
