NopCommerce - Error with Search Box

Question

I've got this error :

The model item passed into the dictionary is of type 
'Nop.Web.Models.Catalog.SearchModel', but this dictionary requires a model 
item of type 'Nop.Web.Models.Catalog.CategoryModel'

the complete error is this :

System.InvalidOperationException: The model item passed into the dictionary 
is of type 'Nop.Web.Models.Catalog.SearchModel', but this dictionary requires 
a model item of type 'Nop.Web.Models.Catalog.CategoryModel'. at

I modified my SearchBox.cshtml to insert input that I need Parent Category (cid) and search text (q). So to find the error I delete from the server SearchBox.cshtml and Search.cshtml but it give me the same error.

I'm using nopCommerce version 3.90

Can someone help me to fix this error please.

You passing model to view from controll - Nop.Web.Models.Catalog.SearchModel and in view page, you using model - Nop.Web.Models.Catalog.CategoryModel

Use model Nop.Web.Models.Catalog.SearchModel in view page and it'll be fix your issue.
