Hi Experts, I have a Scenario where I want to display say "anonymous" text for Reviewer name whenever the user forget to enter the reviewer name field. I some where saw that it can be easily done in ASP.NET MVC by adding DisplayFormat Attribute to the Property in Model. Model: [Display(Name = "Reviewer Name")] [DisplayFormat(NullDisplayText = "Anonymous")] [MaxLength(10)] public string ReviewerName { get; set; } View: <div> @item.ReviewerName </div> But when I run the code I see blank, not the word anonymous. Any idea what I am missing.

Some digging and I got the answer... Actually in order to render the DisplayTemaplate we need to use the the helper method Display for. So in order to achieve I am try to do instead of <div> @item.ReviewerName </div> we should we <div> @Html.DisplayFor(model => model.ReviewerName) </div> :)
