How to setup route for a view to be as home page of a domain in ASP.NET MVC application which contains Areas. I need a view of a particular area to be home page. How could this be done?
I tried using the following code without any success.
public static void RegisterRoutes(RouteCollection routes) {
routes.MapRoute(
name: "Home",
url: "",
defaults: new { controller = "Home", action = "Index" },
namespaces: new string[] { "WebApp.Areas.UI.Controllers" }
);
}
In the Area folder there is a file by name AreaNameAreaRegistration deriving from AreaRegistration, it has a function RegisterArea which sets up the route.
Default route in an Area is AreaName/{controller}/{action}/{id}. Modifying this can set an area as default area. For example I set the default route as {controller}/{action} for my requirement.
