Create sub folders in the controller without Areas

Question

I am developing a MVC 3 Web app and I want to create something like this:

/Controller
      /Blog
         BogController.cs
         ViewsController.cs
         ArticlesController.cs
      /Customers
         SalesController.cs
         ProductsController.cs          
      HomeController.cs
/Views
     /Blog
        Index.aspx
        Summary.aspx
        /Views
           Index.aspx
           Admin.aspx
           Show.aspx
       /Articles
          Show.aspx
          Admin.aspx
    /Customers
       /Sales
          Index.aspx
          Totals.aspx
       /Products
          Index.aspx
          Promotions.aspx
     /Home
       Index.aspx

Create sub folders in the controller

But in the solution that they answer to this guy was for MVC 2 and in MVC 3 the property MapAreas doesn't exits (or at least it doesn't appear to me)

So what i can do to build an structure like /Admin/Users/EditUser?id=2 for example?

If i need to create a route rule, can you write me an example of how to do it.

Answer 1

Routing rules are definitely the way to go. To make a structure like you mentioned, write the route rule like this:

routes.MapRoute(
    "user_routing",
    "Admin/{controller}/{action}?id={id}",
    new { }
);

Then create a controller named UsersController, and an action with id as a parameter:

public ActionResult EditUser(string id) {
    ...
}

Answer 2

Consider using MVC3 Areas. You can create an Admin area for that.
