MVC 4 Area Routing is not working

Question

I created an empty MVC4 Application, all things are working fine, after that I add an Area to my Project Named \"Moderator\". My area routing code is like this:

I had the same problem. You look to App_Start/RouteConfig.cs and add top this code AreaRegistration.RegisterAllAreas();

public class RouteConfig
{
    public static void RegisterRoutes(RouteCollection routes)
    {
        routes.IgnoreRoute("{resource}.axd/{*pathInfo}");
        AreaRegistration.RegisterAllAreas();

        routes.MapRoute(
            name: "Default",
            url: "{controller}/{action}/{id}",
            defaults: new { controller = "Home", action = "Index", id = UrlParameter.Optional }
        );
    }
}

Create create Areas/Moderator/Controllers/DashboardController.cs

public class DashboardController : Controller
{
    //
    // GET: /Moderator/Dashboard/

    public ActionResult Index()
    {
        return View();
    }
}

and create

Areas/Moderator/Views/Dashboard/Index.cshtml

You also need to have Web.config in Areas/Moderator/Views/Web.config ...
