mvc routes not working - asp.net-mvc

I have two routes in RouteConfig
routes.MapRoute(
name: "Default",
url: "{culture}/{controller}/{action}/{id}",
defaults: new { controller = "Desktop", action = "Index", wizard = "", culture = "he-IL", id = UrlParameter.Optional }
);
routes.MapRoute(
name: "Wizard",
url: "{wizard}/{culture}/{controller}/{action}/{id}",
defaults: new { controller = "Desktop", action = "Index", wizard = "AllManufucturer", culture = "he-IL", id = UrlParameter.Optional }
);
I'm trying to navigate to
http://localhost:5754/he-IL/Account/Login which is working
http://localhst:5754/wizard234/he-IL/InfoRequest/Details which is not working
I tried to change the routes order and link 1 is not working and link 2 is working, I want the site will run two different routes template
Please what am I missing?
Tank you in advanced

Custom route breaks Default routing Asp.Net

I have custom routing for controller added right over the default one:
Custom:
routes.MapRoute(
name: "FaqSubCategory",
url: "{culture}/{controller}/{action}/{TapCode}",
defaults: new { controller = "FAQ", action = "GetChosenFaqSubCategory", TapCode = UrlParameter.Optional },
constraints: new { culture = new CultureConstraint() }
);
Custom v2:
routes.MapRoute(
name: "FaqSubCategory",
url: "{culture}/{controller}/{action}/{TapCode}",
defaults: new { controller = "FAQ", action = "GetChosenFaqSubCategory", TapCode = UrlParameter.Optional },
constraints: new { culture = new CultureConstraint(), FAQ = new TranslateControllersConstraint("4189") }
);
Default:
routes.MapRoute(
name: "DefaultWithCulture",
url: "{culture}/{controller}/{action}/{ID}",
defaults: new { controller = "Home", action = "Index", ID = UrlParameter.Optional },
constraints: new { culture = new CultureConstraint() }
);
Basically because of that custom route, home page is receiving "/home/index" and some of the other pages are receiving "/index" at the end of the URL
When I write the custom routing like the second variant, then everything is working perfectly except the FAQ controller.
When an MVC application first starts it creates the route table.The default route table contains a single route named Default. So default route should have Default name, instead of DefaultWithCulture an your default route should have default culture
routes.MapRoute(
name: "Default",
url: "{culture}/{controller}/{action}/{ID}",
defaults: new { culture="en", controller = "Home", action = "Index", ID = UrlParameter.Optional },

MVC Routing Issue when trying www.example.com/id

Let say I have a website www.example.com
the default routing looks like
routes.MapRoute(
name: "Default",
url: "{controller}/{action}/{id}",
defaults: new { controller = "Login", action = "Index", id = UrlParameter.Optional }
);
Ok that works fine but let's say I want my site when I go to www.example.com/id to go to www.example.com/login/index/id
How would I configure/add routing for this, without breaking my other pages where I am actually trying to go to www.example.com/controller?
EDIT: Unfortunately id is a string so I do not have any concrete constraints that I can think of that would work. Think of maybe instead of the id I should have said companyname or sitename so the URL would look like www.example.com/companyname .
The only solution that I have come up with so far is adding a maproute for each one of my controllers like this
routes.MapRoute(
name: "Home",
url: "Home/{action}/{id}",
defaults: new { controller = "Home", action = "Index", id = UrlParameter.Optional }
);
routes.MapRoute(
name: "Settings",
url: "Settings/{action}/{id}",
defaults: new { controller = "Settings", action = "Index", id = UrlParameter.Optional }
);
routes.MapRoute(
name: "companyname",
url: "{id}",
defaults: new { controller = "Login", action = "Index", id = UrlParameter.Optional }
);
routes.MapRoute(
name: "default",
url: "{controller}/{action}/{id}",
defaults: new { controller = "Login", action = "Index", id = UrlParameter.Optional }
);
This will work but I have many controllers and if I add one in the future and forget to adjust the routes it will fail. Also, this is unlikely but if a companyname happens to the be same as one of my controller names it would also fail.
In controller you may redirect to another Controller/action:
public ActionResult yourAction()
{
return RedirectToAction("nameAction","nameController");
}
Did you tried adding this mapping first:
routes.MapRoute( name: "Custom", url: "{id}", defaults: new { controller = "Login", action = "Index", id = UrlParameter.Optional } );
That should work but keep in mind that routes are evaluated secuentially, so you will have to organize mappings in order to reach out all pages in your site.
For example, routes like www.example.com/Product could be redirected to /Login by mistake.
EDIT: You can add constraints, so if id is an int value, you can try with the following:
routes.MapRoute("Custom", "{id}",
new { controller = "Login", action = "Index" },
new { id = #"\d+" }
EDIT 2: Having ids as string values, the only solution I see is to manually add each controller as you said, or to add something like this:
routes.MapRoute(
name: "Default",
url: "app/{controller}/{action}/{id}",
defaults: new { controller = "Login", action = "Index", id = UrlParameter.Optional }
);
This way you don't need to update each route in the future.
Please try below routing
routes.MapRoute(name: "companylogin", url: "companylogin/{id}", defaults: new
{
controller = "Login",
action = "Index",
id = UrlParameter.Optional
});
routes.MapRoute(name: "default", url: "{controller}/{action}/{id}", defaults: new
{
controller = "Login",
action = "Index",
id = UrlParameter.Optional
});
Remove other controller specific routing. Now you can navigate to login using
url : - www.example.com/companylogin/{id} and all other url redirect default route.

MVC Url.Action and Routing Configuration Relation

I would like to revise the questions here, my focus is on MVC Url.Action:
I am testing on Url.Action in view http:// localhost:22334/Order/Index
#Url.Action("Summary", "Order")
When the route config is
routes.MapRoute(
name: "Order",
url: "{lang}/Order/{action}",
defaults: new { lang = UrlParameter.Optional, controller = "Order", action = "Index" }
);
routes.MapRoute(
name: "Default",
url: "{controller}/{action}/{*pathInfo}",
defaults: new { controller = "Order", action = "Index", id = UrlParameter.Optional }
);
It generate a link //Order/Summary which is not working
However when the Route Config is added with constrait
routes.MapRoute(
name: "Order",
url: "{lang}/Order/{action}",
defaults: new { lang = UrlParameter.Optional, controller = "Order", action = "Index" },
constraints: new { lang = "[a-z]{2}" }
);
routes.MapRoute(
name: "Default",
url: "{controller}/{action}/{*pathInfo}",
defaults: new { controller = "Order", action = "Index", id = UrlParameter.Optional }
);
It generate a link /Order/Summary which works well
Is URL.Action depends on the routing?
Since I am testing on localhost, will URL.Action generate different result when I put on server like 'http://myserver/myapps/ordersystem/Order/Index
Thanks

MVC Routes for an multi tenant application

I have a MVC application and can't quite get the routing working for my multi-tenant application. Here is the problem:
I have 2 types of pages in my application, most require the tenant name to be in the url but some don't. e.g.
These Do (tenant name is these examples is samsung and apple):
http://www.mytestapp.com/samsung/customers/add
http://www.mytestapp.com/apple/customers/add
These Don't:
http://www.mytestapp.com/home/register/
http://www.mytestapp.com/home/aboutus/
What routes do i require to get this working? I have tried this but it does not work for the register and about us page.
routes.MapRoute(
name: "TenantRoute",
url: "{tenantid}/{controller}/{action}/{id}",
defaults: new { tenantid = "tenantname", controller = "Home", action = "Index", id = UrlParameter.Optional }
);
Well, you'll need a second route to match the non-tenant routes. The default one should match if register and aboutus are controllers with an Index action:
routes.MapRoute(
name: "Default",
url: "{controller}/{action}/{id}",
defaults: new { controller = "Register", action = "Index", id = UrlParameter.Optional }
);
try with this
routes.MapRoute(
"samsung",
"samsung/{controller}/{action}/{id}",
new { controller = "YourController", action = "YourAction", id = UrlParameter.Optional}
);
routes.MapRoute(
"apple",
"apple/{controller}/{action}/{id}",
new { controller = "YourController", action = "YourAction", id = UrlParameter.Optional }
);
routes.MapRoute(
name: "Default",
url: "{controller}/{action}/{id}",
defaults: new { controller = "Register", action = "Index", id = UrlParameter.Optional }
);

asp.net mvc route with action after id and slug

I'm adding a new route into my mvc web application and it's not working as desired. I was hoping someone could help me figure out where in the list it should go and maybe which defaults and/or constraints should be defined for it (in RouteConfig.cs).
The desired route would look like so:
/controller/id/slug/action e.g. mydomain.com/products/10/product-name/reviews
I've tried to define this route like so and have tried it as the 1st, 2nd and 3rd routes listed:
routes.MapRoute(
name: "AlternateRoute",
url: "{controller}/{id}/{slug}/{action}",
defaults: null,
constraints: new { id = #"\d+", slug = #"[\w\-\d+]*" }
);
What's happening is after I add the above route, and browse to a page like /products/10/product-name - url's that were previously something like /products/create look like /products/10/product-name/create (but only on that page).
The only other routes I have are these 3 (defined in my routeConfig file):
/controller/id/slug
routes.MapRoute(
name: "DefaultSlugRoute",
url: "{controller}/{id}/{slug}",
defaults: new { action = "Details", slug = "" },
constraints: new { id = #"\d+", slug = #"[\w\-\d+]*" }
);
/controller/action/year/month
routes.MapRoute(
name: "MonthlyArchiveRoute",
url: "{controller}/{action}/{year}/{month}",
defaults: new { controller = "Blog", action = "Archives", year = UrlParameter.Optional, month = UrlParameter.Optional },
constraints: new { year = #"\d{4}", month = #"\d{2}" }
);
/controller/action/id (the standard one included w/ a new mvc project)
routes.MapRoute(
name: "DefaultRoute",
url: "{controller}/{action}/{id}",
defaults: new { controller = "Home", action = "Index", id = UrlParameter.Optional }
);
