System.Web.Mvc.HtmlHelper does not contain a definition for MvcSiteMap

Question

I use MvcSiteMapProvider MVC5 with my web application and inside my _Layout.cshtml file, which I use:

@if (Html.MvcSiteMap().SiteMap.CurrentNode != Html.MvcSiteMap().SiteMap.RootNode)
    {
        @Html.MvcSiteMap().SiteMapPath()
    }

But Intellisence throws this error:

System.Web.Mvc.HtmlHelper does not contain a definition for MvcSiteMap

Does anyone know how to solve this problem?

Answer 2

The namespaces mentioned by @Steven V are automatically added to the file Views\Web.configduring the installation of the NuGet package.

<configuration>
  <system.web.webPages.razor>
    <pages pageBaseType="System.Web.Mvc.WebViewPage">
      <namespaces>
        <add namespace="MvcSiteMapProvider.Web.Html" />
        <add namespace="MvcSiteMapProvider.Web.Html.Models" />
      </namespaces>
    </pages>
