asp.net-mvc-areas

I have tried to create simple proof-of-concept ASP.NET MVC 4 web site using areas in separate projects. I tried to following tutorials: http://bob.archer.net/content/aspnet-mvc3-areas-separate-projects (Application doesn't work in virtual directory... I use IIS). I hope there is better way than virtual directories. Then I tried this tutorial: http://forums.asp.net/t/1483660.aspx/1 But there is no "AreasManifestDir" element in *.csproj of area project (and got error "The view 'Index' or its master was not found or no view engine supports the searched locations") Is there still support in ASP

Is there a way to redirect to a specific action/controller on a different Area? Did you try this?: return RedirectToAction("action", "controller", new { area = "area" }); Your answer was helpful to me. Just wanted to add below: If you want to redirect from one area to another area, above code works well. And, if you want to redirect from one area to a controller/view which is not there in the area folder (i.e. in most cases, your front end), you can specify area = "". i.e. return RedirectToAction("action", "controller", new { area = "" }); I would like to ask a follow-up here.

How do I use an Area in ASP.NET Core? I have an app that needs an Admin section. This section requires its Views to be placed in that area. All requests that start with Admin/ will need to be redirected to that area. Vahid Amiri In order to include an Area in an ASP.NET Core app, first we need to include a conventional route in the Startup.cs file (It's best to place it before any non-area route): In Startup.cs/Configure method: app.UseMvc(routes => { routes.MapRoute("areaRoute", "{area:exists}/{controller=Admin}/{action=Index}/{id?}"); routes.MapRoute( name: "default", template: "{controller

I am running into the following error with my ASP.NET MVC 3 project: Multiple types were found that match the controller named 'Home'. This can happen if the route that services this request ('Home/{action}/{id}') does not specify namespaces to search for a controller that matches the request. If this is the case, register this route by calling an overload of the 'MapRoute' method that takes a 'namespaces' parameter. The request for 'Home' has found the following matching controllers: MyCompany.MyProject.WebMvc.Controllers.HomeController MyCompany.MyProject.WebMvc.Areas.Company.Controllers

I have an MVC4 project with language selection: en nl fr de 1 main part with: About Common (for the menu) Contact Faq Home And 3 areas: Admin Customers Shop In each area I have at least one controller, for example in Admin I have the controller overview with the corresponding view folder overview which contains an index.aspx page. The home page and all the main pages (about, faq, etc.) work and can be visited). However, when I follow the url: localhost:xxxx/en/admin/overview I get the error: The controller for path '/en/admin/overview' was not found or does not implement IController. Even

I have a shared master page which I am using from 2 different areas in my mvc 2 app. The master page has an action link which currently specifies the controller and action, but of course the link doesn't work if I'm in the wrong area. I see no overload for actionlink that takes an area parameter, is it possible to do? Figured it out.. Html.ActionLink("Link Text", "ActionName", "ControllerName", new { Area = "AreaName" }, new{}) Something I ran into right after this, that I imagine others might run into: If you need to link from within an area to an action not in an area, you still need to
