Description

The current version has two features:

  • Ninjas
  • Samurai

Each has a SwordsController with an Index.cshtml view inside of a Swords subfolder.

Going to /ninjas/swords hits the SwordsController in /Features/Ninjas and returns the expected View. Going to /samurai/swords hits the SwordsController in /Features/Samurai but returns the view from /Features/Ninjas/Swords/index.cshtml.

Contributor guide

Research direction
Investigate the view discovery logic in ASP.NET Core MVC. The issue is likely due to the default view location format using area or feature folders. Check the ViewLocationFormats and ensure each feature's SwordsController is returning the correct view by specifying the full path or adjusting the view location conventions.
