The following MVC4 Razor layout file loads several script and css bundles created in Bundle.config.
<!DOCTYPE html> <html class="no-js" lang="en"> <head> <meta charset="utf-8" /> <title>XXX Beta</title> @Scripts.Render( "~/bundles/bundle_jquery", "~/bundles/bundle_modernizr", "~/bundles/bundle_foundation", "~/bundles/bundle_jhs") @Styles.Render( "~/Content/bundle_foundation", "~/Content/bundle_jhs") @RenderSection("pageHeadContent", false) </head> <body> <div id="bodyContainer"> @Html.Partial("Partial/_header") <div id="contentContainer"> <div id="mainContentContainer"> <div id="sidebarContainer"> @RenderSection("sidebarContent", required: true) </div> @RenderBody() </div> <div class="clearBoth"> </div> </div> @Html.Partial("Partial/_footer") </div> </body> </html> When the page is rendered the following error occurs. For some reason the @Scripts and @Styles commands are not being recognized. If I type in "@Scripts" in the files the Intellisense does not display/show the command. The project does reference System.Web.Optimization, which is used in the Bundle.config.
What could be causing the @Scripts and @Styles commands not to be recognized?

Make sure that the System.Web.Optimization.dll assembly has been referenced in your project and that the <add namespace="System.Web.Optimization"/> namespace has been added to your ~/Views/web.config file (not ~/web.config file):
<system.web.webPages.razor> <host factoryType="System.Web.Mvc.MvcWebRazorHostFactory, System.Web.Mvc, Version=4.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=31BF3856AD364E35" /> <pages pageBaseType="System.Web.Mvc.WebViewPage"> <namespaces> <add namespace="System.Web.Mvc" /> <add namespace="System.Web.Mvc.Ajax" /> <add namespace="System.Web.Mvc.Html" /> <add namespace="System.Web.Optimization"/> <add namespace="System.Web.Routing" /> </namespaces> </pages> </system.web.webPages.razor> The System.Web.Optimization.dll assembly is contained within the Microsoft.AspNet.Web.Optimization NuGet, so make sure that it is installed in your project (when you create a new ASP.NET MVC 4 project in Visual Studio using the Internet Template this NuGet is automatically added to the project).
