What should be the correct “Build Action” and “Copy to Output Directory” settings on all images, JavaScript files, and CSS files in my /Content/ folder in my ASP.NET MVC3 web app?
I don’t understand why Visual Studio creates duplicates of these files inside the /bin/ folder even when the build action is set to “None”?
Figured it out.
To make images and other content copy to the destination while being published, the build action must be set to “Content”.
Unless the file should also be stored in the /bin/ folder, “Copy to Output Directory” should be left set to “None”.
