ScaffoldColumn(bool value) vs HiddenInput(DisplayValue = bool value) in MVC

Index.cshtml

So, when we want to create new values using Create.cshtml, the screen looks like below:

Now let's try the other attribute which is ScaffoldColumn()

The Location Prop is specified with [ScaffoldColumn(false)]

Student.cs

using System;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using System.Linq;
using System.Web;
using System.ComponentModel.DataAnnotations;
using System.Web.Mvc;

namespace MVC_Basic_Application.Models
{
public class Student
{
[Key]
public int StudentId { get; set; }

[Required(ErrorMessage = "Please Enter FirstName")]
[StringLength(10, ErrorMessage = "FirstName morethan 10 charcs")]
public string FirstName { get; set; }
[Required(ErrorMessage = "Please Enter LastName")]

[StringLength(10, ErrorMessage = "LastName morethan 10 charcs")]
public string LastName { get; set; }

[Range(5, 50, ErrorMessage = "Age Should Be Between 5 and 50")]
public int Age { get; set; }

[ScaffoldColumn(false)]
[Required(ErrorMessage = "Please Enter Location")]
[StringLength(10, ErrorMessage = "Location morethan 10 charcs")]
public string Location { get; set; }

[Required(ErrorMessage = "Email is required")]
[RegularExpression(@"^([a-zA-Z0-9_\-\.]+)@((\[[0-9]{1,3}" +
@"\.[0-9]{1,3}\.[0-9]{1,3}\.)|(([a-zA-Z0-9\-]+\" +
@".)+))([a-zA-Z]{2,4}|[0-9]{1,3})(\]?)$",
ErrorMessage = "Email appears to be invalid.")]
[UIHint("_Email")]
public string Email { get; set; }

[Required(ErrorMessage = "Confirm Email is required")]
[RegularExpression(@"^([a-zA-Z0-9_\-\.]+)@((\[[0-9]{1,3}" +
@"\.[0-9]{1,3}\.[0-9]{1,3}\.)|(([a-zA-Z0-9\-]+\" +
@".)+))([a-zA-Z]{2,4}|[0-9]{1,3})(\]?)$",
ErrorMessage = "Email appears to be invalid.")]
[UIHint("_Email")]
[Compare("Email",ErrorMessage="Email Should Match")]
public string ConfirmEmail { get; set; }
[Display(Name="Person Gender")]
[Required(ErrorMessage="Gender is Required")]
[StringLength(8, ErrorMessage="Gender Too Long")]
public string Gender { get; set; }
}
}
