I want to have the following:
Link to {controller}/{destination} and link to {controller}/{action}, for example: flights/berlin and flights/search accordingly.
My routes config is as follows:
routes.MapRoute(
name: "LandPage",
url: "{controller}/{destination}",
defaults: new { controller = "Flights", action = "Index", destination = UrlParameter.Optional }
);
routes.MapRoute(
name: "Default",
url: "{controller}/{action}/{id}",
defaults: new { controller = "Home", action = "Index", id = UrlParameter.Optional }
);
If "LandPage" is first, the route will go always to the land page with the url parameter (i.e. --> flights/search will go to flights/index with parameter destination = search) and its bad for me.
If "Default" will be first, and I try to navigate to flights/berlin, it will try to navigate to the flights controller and action = berlin, of course no such action...
The only solution I can think of is using "LandPage" first, and compare the {destination} parameter with name of action and redirect to that action... I don't like that solution... anyone can think about another solution??
Thanks!
You can set fixed routs for specific actions:
routes.MapRoute(
name: "Search",
url: "Flights/Search/{search}",
defaults: new { controller = "Flights", action = "Search", search = UrlParameter.Optional }
);
and
routes.MapRoute(
name: "LandPage",
url: "Flights/{destination}",
defaults: new { controller = "Flights", action = "Index", destination = UrlParameter.Optional }
);
before your default route.

I've been developing a product for 2 years which is being sold by ourselves and partners.
Now the manager wants to give the source code to our partners which will be only used as Demo apps with a Demo License.
All the demo module has been already developed but I need to show "Demo" on the route (url) when the license says so.
Example:
Every call to
/Controller1/Action1
Must transform the URL to
/Demo/Controller1/Action1
First try:
routes.MapRoute(
name: "DefaultDemo",
url: "Demo/{controller}/{action}/{id}",
defaults: new { controller = "Home", action = "Index", id = UrlParameter.Optional }
);
routes.MapRoute(
name: "Default",
url: "{controller}/{action}/{id}",
defaults: new { controller = "Home", action = "Index", id = UrlParameter.Optional }
);
However, this will partially work because I need to set "Demo" on every call to Controller/Action I've in my app.
Second try:
routes.MapRoute(
name: "DefaultDemo",
url: "{demo}/{controller}/{action}/{id}",
defaults: new { controller = "Home", action = "Index", id = UrlParameter.Optional },
constraints: new { demo = "Demo" }
);
routes.MapRoute(
name: "Default",
url: "{controller}/{action}/{id}",
defaults: new { controller = "Home", action = "Index", id = UrlParameter.Optional, demo = "Demo" }
);
In this one, I tried to set it as a variable and "Demo" as a constraint of the that variable, to prevent someone to change it to other text.
Then I tried to use the "Default" route as Redirect to the other one, by setting the parameter "demo", however this obviously failed since it doesn't work this way.
Third try:
var demoRoute = routes.MapRoute(
name: "DefaultDemo",
url: "{demo}/{controller}/{action}/{id}",
defaults: new { controller = "Home", action = "Index", id = UrlParameter.Optional },
constraints: new { demo = "Demo" }
);
routes.Redirect(x =>
x.MapRoute("Default", "{controller}/{action}/{id}", new { controller = "Home", action = "Index", id = UrlParameter.Optional, demo = "Demo" })
)
.To(demoRoute);
In the last example I tried to use RouteMagic nugget to redirect the old "Default" route to the Demo one, but it didn't work.
Anyone who did something similar?
I am using Asp.net Mvc 5 with C#.
I want to disable default routing in my project. My map routes like;
routes.MapRoute(name: "News",
url: "haberler",
defaults: new { controller = "News", action = "Index"});
routes.MapRoute(
name: "Default",
url: "{controller}/{action}/{id}",
defaults: new { controller = "Home", action = "Index", id = UrlParameter.Optional }
);
When a user visits my website's news page, it's like;
www.domain.com/haberler
But also the user can visit the news page as below;
www.domain.com/news
I want to remove that "/news" or direct to seo-friendly url like; "/haberler"
So how can I disable default routing (Controller-Name-Convension) routing?
Instead of removing the "default" route, you can add a controller constraint to it
routes.MapRoute(
name: "Default",
url: "{controller}/{action}/{id}",
defaults: new { controller = "Home", action = "Index", id = UrlParameter.Optional },
constraints: new { controller = #"(Account|Manage|Home)" }
);
Like this, /news will return 404 Not Found.
In MVC, the convention is to map URLs to a particular Action on a particular Controller. Remove default route to disable default convention:
routes.MapRoute(
name: "Default",
url: "{controller}/{action}/{id}",
defaults: new { controller = "Home", action = "Index", id = UrlParameter.Optional }
);
www.domain.com/news will not match in any of your routes hence it will throw an error.
Try removing with this
RouteTable.Routes.Remove(RouteTable.Routes["NAME ROUTE YOU WISH TO RMOVE"]);
Hope this will helps you.
In mvc 4 I am trying to route to something like this http://localhost:22128/username. In my route.config
routes.MapRoute(
name: "Default",
url: "{controller}/{action}/{id}",
defaults: new { controller = "Home", action = "Index", id = UrlParameter.Optional }
);
For this do I need to change url format? how can I route ? Can someone help me to solve this? I am very confused on this.
Edit
I tried this
routes.MapRoute(
name: "Default",
url: "{controller}/{action}/{id}",
defaults: new { controller = "Home", action = "Index", id = UrlParameter.Optional }
);
routes.MapRoute(
"UserProfile",
"{username}",
new { controller = "Profile", action = "Index", username = string.Empty }
);
but Still it not finding the profile controller in index method.
Routes are order specific. They are tried from the first route registered to the last.
Since the default route matches every URL with 0, 1, 2, or 3 segments no URL defined after it with any of those lengths will work.
So you need to define your UserProfile route before the Default route.
routes.MapRoute(
"UserProfile",
"{username}",
new { controller = "Profile", action = "Index", username = string.Empty }
);
routes.MapRoute(
name: "Default",
url: "{controller}/{action}/{id}",
defaults: new { controller = "Home", action = "Index", id = UrlParameter.Optional }
);
Default of asp.net-mvc4 is http://domainname.com/products/1 with routes
routes.MapRoute(
name: "Products",
url: "{controller}/{action}/{id}",
defaults: new { controller = "Products", action = "Index", id = UrlParameter.Optional }
);
and I want to rewrite to http://domainname.com/products/1.html that has .html extention .
Any ideas for this?
Do you mean this:
routes.MapRoute(
name: "Products",
url: "{controller}/{action}/{id}.html",
defaults: new { controller = "Products", action = "Index", id = UrlParameter.Optional }
);
Why would you want to put .html extension to a query string or route parameter?
if you take a website with html files, the extension is with the page not with the parameters. Don't know if you have any specific requirement to put it always at the end of the url. but it doesn't make any sense.
routes.MapRoute(
name: "Products",
url: "{controller}/{action}.html/{id}",
defaults: new { controller = "Products", action = "Index", id = UrlParameter.Optional }
);
you might have problems with iis after doing the above, please take a look at this discussion as well.
ASP.NET MVC Routing - add .html extension to routes
How can I set up a {controller}/{id} routing in ASP.NET MVC 5.
What I would like to achieve: if there are no {action} defined, call Index() with id.
I tried thism but didn't work:
// Keep default routing
routes.MapRoute(
name: "Default",
url: "{controller}/{action}/{id}",
defaults: new { controller = "Home", action = "Index", id = UrlParameter.Optional }
);
// Add own routing in case of missing "action"
routes.MapRoute(
name: "Controller/Id",
url: "{controller}/{id}",
defaults: new { controller = "Home", action = "Index", id = UrlParameter.Optional }
);
After reading ameer's comment it become clear that the routing is not that "intelligent" that I was hoping for, so if the URL pattern is matching one route, but no such controller/method found, it will not "fall through" to the next routing command, but will raise exception.
So I had tried what Simon suggested, added constraint to my custom routing, and reversed the order, and it works now. However, if I would like to have other mappings similar to attachments, I'd have to add them one by one.
Working code:
routes.MapRoute(
name: "Attachments",
url: "attachments/{id}",
defaults: new { controller = "Attachments", action = "Index", id = UrlParameter.Optional }
);
routes.MapRoute(
name: "Default",
url: "{controller}/{action}/{id}",
defaults: new { controller = "Home", action = "Index", id = UrlParameter.Optional }
);
