How to change starting page, using Razor Pages in .NET Core 2?

Question

I wanted to set my starting page to /Members/Index.

When I was using MVC, I configured it as following:

app.UseMvc(routes =>
            {
              


        

Answer 1

Add the following to your ConfigurationServices function in Startup.cs

 services.AddMvc().AddRazorPagesOptions(options =>
        {
            options.Conventions.AddPageRoute("/Members/Index", "");
        });

If you have another index page you'll probably need to delete or rename it.

Answer 2

For testing purposes you can change the start page by going to the Properties window for the web project and select the Debug tab. On the 'Launch browser' line enter the starting path

Answer 3

I am using this way

services.AddMvc()
    .AddRazorPagesOptions(options => 
    {
        options.AllowAreas = true;
        options.Conventions.AddAreaPageRoute("Home", "/Index", "");
    });

My folder structure is:

 - Area
   |_ Home
      |_ Pages
         |_ Index.cshtml
   |_ //other areas

Try following code at AppStart->RouteConfig.cs :

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