Is there any section or code which allows us to set default page in web.config
?
For example, when people first visit my website, I want them to see CreateThing.aspx
rather than Default.aspx
.
The solutions I already know:
-
Put this line of code =>
Response.Redirect("CreateThings.aspx")
inDefault.aspx
Page_Load
event but this method is really naive. -
We can use IIS (default page configuration,) but I wanna do the same thing over on my ASP.NET application.
-
This could be another solution for now:
<defaultDocument> <files> <clear /> <add value="Default.aspx" /> <add value="Default.htm" /> <add value="Default.asp" /> <add value="index.htm" /> <add value="index.html" /> <add value="iisstart.htm" /> </files> </defaultDocument>

If using IIS 7 or IIS 7.5 you can use
