How do you set variable in route and display in template?

Question

I am looking to set a variable for each page that is set to text to display as a dynamic header sort of thing. How would I set a variable in a route and display it in the corresponding template? So far everything I have tried is not working.

Answer 1

The context of a template in a route is its controller, not its route. Try moving the action to the controller.
