ASP.NET MVC URL Routing with Multiple Route Values


It is using the first route that is fully satisfied. Try putting your SlugsAfterId route above the Default one.

It's basically going: "Check Default. Got an action? Yes. Got an id? Yes. Use this one and chuck any other parameters in the querystring."

As a side note, doing that will make your Default route redundant as you provide a default value for the slug parameter.


Garry (above) is correct. You can use Mr. Haack's route debugger for MVC. It can help resolve routing issues by showing you which routes are hit and when.

Here is the Blog Post.And here is the Zip File.


You could add a Constraint to your Routes that contain "id" since it's presumably only to accept a number. This way the first route will only match when the "id" is numeric, then it would make the second route for all other values. Then place the one that includes the {slug} at the top and everything should work correctly.

routes.MapRoute(    "SlugsAfterId",    "{controller}.mvc/{action}/{id}/{slug}",    new { controller = "Products", action = "Browse", id = "", slug = "" },    new { id = @"\d+" });routes.MapRoute(    "Default",                                              // Route name    "{controller}.mvc/{action}/{id}",                           // URL with parameters    new { controller = "Home", action = "Index", id = "" },  // Parameter defaults    new { id = @"\d+" });routes.MapRoute(    "Tagging",    "{controller}.mvc/{action}/{tags}",    new { controller = "Products", action = "Index", tags = "" });
