Set "Homepage" in Asp.Net MVC

Look at the Default.aspx/Default.aspx.cs and the Global.asax.cs

You can set up a default route:

        routes.MapRoute(
            "Default", // Route name
            "",        // URL with parameters
            new { controller = "Home", action = "Index"}  // Parameter defaults
        );

Just change the Controller/Action names to your desired default. That should be the last route in the Routing Table.


ASP.NET Core

Routing is configured in the Configure method of the Startup class. To set the "homepage" simply add the following. This will cause users to be routed to the controller and action defined in the MapRoute method when/if they navigate to your site’s base URL, i.e., yoursite.com will route users to yoursite.com/foo/index:

app.UseMvc(routes =>
{
   routes.MapRoute(
   name: "default",
   template: "{controller=FooController}/{action=Index}/{id?}");
});

Pre-ASP.NET Core

Use the RegisterRoutes method located in either App_Start/RouteConfig.cs (MVC 3 and 4) or Global.asax.cs (MVC 1 and 2) as shown below. This will cause users to be routed to the controller and action defined in the MapRoute method if they navigate to your site’s base URL, i.e., yoursite.com will route the user to yoursite.com/foo/index:

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

    // Here I have created a custom "Default" route that will route users to the "YourAction" method within the "FooController" controller.
    routes.MapRoute(
        name: "Default",
        url: "{controller}/{action}/{id}",
        defaults: new { controller = "FooController", action = "Index", id = UrlParameter.Optional }
    );
}

Step 1: Click on Global.asax File in your Solution.

Step 2: Then Go to Definition of

RouteConfig.RegisterRoutes(RouteTable.Routes);

Step 3: Change Controller Name and View Name

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

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