C# ASP.NET MVC Forms Finishing Our CRUD Web App Partial Views

In preparation for supporting the development of a new "Update Issue" page, the Issue form has been moved into an _Issue

I though the video said to do this

Report.cshtml
@model IssueReporter.Models.Issue

@{
    ViewBag.Title = "Report an Issue";
}

<h2>@ViewBag.Title</h2>


// i thought this would work
@Html.Partial("_IssueForm.cshtml")
_IssueForm.cshtml
@model IssueReporter.Models.Issue
@using IssueReporter.Models

@using (Html.BeginForm())
{
    @Html.ValidationSummary()

    <div>
        @Html.LabelFor(m => m.Name)
        @Html.TextBoxFor(m => m.Name)
    </div>

    <div>
        @Html.LabelFor(m => m.Email)
        @Html.TextBoxFor(m => m.Email)
    </div>

    <div>
        @Html.LabelFor(m => m.DepartmentId)
        @Html.DropDownListFor(m => m.DepartmentId, (SelectList)ViewBag.DepartmentsSelectListItems)
    </div>

    <div>
        @Html.LabelFor(m => m.Severity)
        @Html.RadioButtonFor(m => m.Severity,
          Issue.SeverityLevel.Minor) @Issue.SeverityLevel.Minor
        @Html.RadioButtonFor(m => m.Severity,
          Issue.SeverityLevel.Major) @Issue.SeverityLevel.Major
        @Html.RadioButtonFor(m => m.Severity,
          Issue.SeverityLevel.Critical) @Issue.SeverityLevel.Critical
    </div>

    <div>
        @Html.CheckBoxFor(m => m.Reproducible) @Html.DisplayNameFor(m => m.Reproducible)
    </div>

    <div>
        @Html.LabelFor(m => m.DescriptionOfProblem)
        @Html.TextAreaFor(m => m.DescriptionOfProblem)
    </div>

    <button type="submit">Save</button>
}

You only need the name portion of the partial file.

So just leave off the extension (".cshtml").
