I'm using ASP.NET MVC5 and VS2013
I've tried to copy CodeTemplates folder from
C:Program Files (x86)Microsoft Visual Studio 12.0Common7IDEVWDExpressItemTemplatesCSharpWebMVC 4CodeTemplates
with subfolders "AddController", "AddView" and T4 templates inside them, then I modified some templates, but nothing happened when I tried to add View nor Controller..

First, it looks like you have Visual Studio 2013 and 2012 both installed on your computer. I tried looking up the path you provided, I couldn't find it. On your path it looks like you're trying to use MVC4 templates. Here is my path:
C:Program Files (x86)Microsoft Visual Studio 12.0
Common7IDEExtensionsMicrosoftWebMvcScaffoldingTemplates
Below is how I customized my scaffold template for the BaseController:
-
Create folder called "CodeTemplates" directly in the project folder.
-
Go to below path, find MvcControllerWithActions folder copy all to folder "CodeTemplates"
C:Program Files (x86)Microsoft Visual Studio 12.0 Common7IDEExtensionsMicrosoftWebMvcScaffoldingTemplates
-
Go to CodeTemplates -> MvcControllerWithActions in your project.
-
There are two files,
Controller.cs.t4
andController.vb.t4
in MvcControllerWithActions, if you used C#, you can deleteController.vb.t4
. -
Open the
Controller.cs.t4
file, modify the Controller name to BaseController, like below:public class <#= ControllerName #> : BaseController { }
-
Now, when you try to create MVC5 Controller using "add new scaffold item", it'll use the template you customized.
Hope it helps.

The MVC5 T4 templates are located in C:Program Files (x86)Microsoft Visual Studio 12.0Common7IDEVWDExpressExtensionsMicrosoftWebMvcScaffoldingTemplatesMvcView

MVC4 and MVC5 templates are located in different locations. While MVC4 templates are located in the folder you've given, MVC5 templates are located in this folder:
C:Program Files (x86)Microsoft Visual Studio 12.0Common7IDEExtensionsMicrosoftWebMvcScaffoldingTemplates
What you need to do for customizing is to create a folder named CodeTemplates
your project folder, and copy the templates you want to customize to the CodeTemplates
folder.
You'll need to copy MvcView
and MvcControllerWithContext
folders in order to use with MVC 5 Controller with view, using EntityFramework command.
CAUTION
-
Both directories must have the same folder structure. What I mean is, do not copy the
Create.cs.t4
in theMvcView
folder directly into theCodeTemplates
folder. Just copy the entireMvcView
folder intoCodeTemplates
folder. -
Do not delete include files such as
Imports.include.t4
andModelMetadataFunctions.cs.include.t4
because other files need them to be there. -
If you're using C#, feel free to delete files with
.vb.t4
extension and vice versa.
