Removing Controller from url in a specific scenario

Question

I want to remove Controller named Home from url when user clicks on About and Contact pages in ASP.NET MVC

Answer 1

You should map new route in the global.asax (add it before the default one), for example:

routes.MapRoute("SpecificRouteforHomeController", "{action}/{id}", new {controller = "Home", action = "Index", id = UrlParameter.Optional});

// default route  any defalt you want
routes.MapRoute("Default", "{controller}/{action}/{id}", new {controller = "Account", action = "Login", id = UrlParameter.Optional} );

Answer 2

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

If u will specify the controller name then this will work with that controller name. Bu if not the by default it will take controller name as DefaultControllerName.
