I can't redirect to another website in ASP.NET Core MVC

I can't redirect to another website in ASP.NET Core MVC. I want to have a link that redirect to another website but it's not working for me.

I tried to put the link (e.g. https://www.twitter.com/) simply in the href="..." of my <a> tag like this:

<a href="https://www.instagram.com/mclaren/" target="_blank">Twitter</a>

Is there any reason why it doesn't work? I have to display every socials (that are in my database in the table Contact) of every contact, so I need this to work and to work efficiently.

Thank you!

Solution

  • You can try different approach :- Create a Action method in you controller

    public IActionResult RedirectExample()
{
    return Redirect("https://www.instagram.com/mclaren/");
}

    and in razor page

    <a href="/Home/RedirectExample" target="_blank">Instagram</a>
