Hello there!
I'm using the Kendo UI had have a very similar problem with the DropDownFor(x =>x.[dropdown]) control. I've got a page with many dropdowns on it and the dropdown style is only getting applied to the first control. I've followed the recommendation here and added the .Name("[Name]" + Guid.NewGuid()) and am still getting dropdowns that are not styled. The dropdowns end up acting like text inputs.
Any clues on how I might solve this? Would a video assist?
Thanks so much,
Caleb
