The problem that I have faced lately when trying to write a site on razor pages - when I use variables in a class method, it doesn't keep that data inside. In example: I have a method which creates data when the page is created. And when I press submit button: The data isn't remembered inside the class and thus it returns null.
I've tried to work with Data binding, Temp data, Private classes. Neither of them kept data for a future use inside one class. The current code is:
`
namespace TestSite.Pages.Shared
{
public class Registration_2Model : PageModel
{
private readonly TestSite.Data.ApplicationDbContext _context;
public UserManager<IdentityUser> _user;
public string _ID { get; set; }
public string _Code { get; set; }
public bool _Validated;
public Registration_2Model(UserManager<IdentityUser> UserManager, ApplicationDbContext context)
{
_context = context;
_user = UserManager;
}
public IActionResult OnGet()
{
var CurrentUser = _context.Simple_User.FirstOrDefault(m => m.ID == Guid.Parse(_user.GetUserId(User)));
if (CurrentUser == null)
{
_ID = _user.GetUserId(User);
_Code = GenerateCode();
_Validated = false;
TempData["ID"] = _ID;
TempData["Code"] = _Code;
return Page();
} else { return Redirect("/Index"); }
}
[BindProperty]
public Simple_User Simple_User { get; set; }
public async Task<IActionResult> OnPostAsync()
{
Simple_User.ID = Guid.Parse((string)TempData["ID"]);
Simple_User.Code = (string)TempData["Code"];
Simple_User.Validated = false;
if (!ModelState.IsValid)
{
return Page();
}
_context.Simple_User.Add(Simple_User);
await _context.SaveChangesAsync();
return RedirectToPage("./Index");
}
private string GenerateCode()
{
Random _random = new Random();
return $"{_random.Next(1000, 9999).ToString()}-{DateTime.Now.Year}";
}
}
}
`
and HTML:
`
@{
ViewData["Title"] = "Second registration";
}
<h2>Second registration</h2>
<h4>One step left. After your initial registration, you must fill in some blanks, after which, our moderator will check and add you to our list.</h4>

@section Scripts {
@{await Html.RenderPartialAsync("_ValidationScriptsPartial");}
}`
Basically, site displays some value in an inaccessible field and should use it when it creates a Simple_User in database. But so far I got only nulls
