Razor intellisense in plugin project

We have tried all various workarounds suggested in this thread, but it still does not work.
Are there some new ideas or solutions for this IntelliSense issue?
Visual Studio 2015 / 4 : nop 3.60
Thanks

I have also done everything suggested in these posts. Still can't get it to work.

Using VS 2015 and NOP 3.50

Sorry I mean Visual Studio 2013 - 4 ; but from the post above it seems that vs 2015 does not solve this issue either.

So its a references and DLLs issue. Visual Studio can't explore the file system to find the DLLs in the \bin where they are in the tree structure, so you can either 'copy local' the references (although that makes a huge volume of duplicated DLLS) ; or tweak your project or Visual Studio so that, (in short),  it finds the DLLs in the \bin where it expects them

Care to give some instructions on how you did that please?

No clean and simple solution. You might install you project under \Presentation\Nop.Web so it would find the correct bin folder, but this is not the nopCommerce good practice and beware of post-compilation files copies that will not be relevant anymore. Other convoluted solutions work once but not when you restart VS ; that is probably why others have succeeded once and then failed again. Copy local of the references properties is the easiest way.

Thanks! I'll give that a try.

This solution works for me (VS2015):

Set CopyLocal=True on all references
Set output path=bin
Build.
Restore output path to: ..\..\Presentation\Nop.Web\Plugins\WhatEver\
Reopen .cshtml file(s).

Hello,

One thing that I did was to maintain Output path to "bin\" folder and set a post build event (Build Events -> Post-build event command line) copying my files from bin to desirable the folder, for example:

xcopy "$(TargetDir)*" "$(SolutionDir)\Presentation\Nop.Web\Plugins\Widgets.PromoSlider\"  /s /Y

This solved my problem.

I had an expired installation of Resharper in VisualStudio 2015. Uninstalled it, followed the instructions at http://alexwolfthoughts.com/fixing-broken-nopcommerce-razor-intellisense/ and voila!
