    Is it possible to load a View without setting the Template for the Document Type?

    Hello,

    Weird question!

    Is it possible to load a view without setting the template on the document type?

    If the template is not set, it always goes to 404 page and never enters the controller.

    I'm doing this because I don't want that specific view on the backoffice.

    Thanks!

    Hey, what I ended up doing was registering a controller at runtime, like this:

    RouteTable.Routes.MapRoute(
           "RouteName",
           "route",
           new { controller = "ControllerName", action = "ActionName" });

    Then on the controller:

     public ActionResult ActionName()
    {
        BaseModel model = ... (here I just got my homepage IPublishedContent) since the model didn't matter, just needed it for the base layout;

        return View("~/path/to/view.cshtml", model);
    }

    To note, I did all this on a different .csproj aside the main project, as an extensible plugin.
