asp.net mvc, razor partial view - boolean property not showing

Dec 2 2020 3:48 PM
Here is a JQuery Datatable where I select the mode - edit, details or delete.
 
The 1 row shows that the boolean PublishedSwitch = true.
 
 
For the edit and delete modes, the boolean - PublishedSwitch (as a radio button) will NOT show. However,
it is passed in the corresponding view model with a value = true.
 
Also, for the edit mode, if I click the save button, the view model 'required' data annotation kicks in stating
"Publish Option required". It does not seem to recognize that it came in with a value = true.
 
If I select the radio button, the validation passes.
 
The edit mode partial view is rendered in a Bootstrap modal whereby I send it the properties in a view model.
The delete view-only partial view is rendered in a Bootstrap modal whereby I send it the properties in a view model.
 
(For sake of keeping it light, I will not show the delete mode code).
 
For the details mode, the boolean - PublishedSwitch (as a radio button) shows just fine.
 
At the bottom, I show the code for the view-only details partial view.
 
The view-only details partial view is rendered in a Bootstrap modal whereby I send it the properties in a view model.
 
For the edit mode:
 
Here is a screen shot depicting the view model just before it is sent to the partial view.
