How to post to block controller action?
Thanks David, I stumbled across this and initially think it wasn't very helpful but it ultimately did solve my problem. Essentially, I needed to add virtual to the Logout() action result, which fixed the 404 issue. Hope this at least helps someone else in the future! Here's the correct method signature:
[HttpPost]
[ValidateAntiForgeryToken]
public virtual ActionResult Logout()
{
// Log user out
// Redirect
return Redirect("/");
}

I have the following form being rendered from within a block.
@using (Html.BeginForm("Logout", null, new { language = ContentLanguage.PreferredCulture.Name }, FormMethod.Post)) { @Html.AntiForgeryToken(); <button type="submit">Log Out</button> }Here's the controller:
public class HeaderBlockController : BlockController<HeaderBlock> { [HttpGet] public override ActionResult Index(HeaderBlock currentBlock) { var model = new HeaderBlockViewModel(currentBlock); return PartialView("Blocks/HeaderBlock", model); } [HttpPost] [ValidateAntiForgeryToken] public ActionResult Logout() { // Log user out // Redirect return Redirect("/"); } }When I submit the form, the page 404s and does not actually execute the Logout() method. What am I missing? Should I be approaching this differently?
