❔ ASP.NET Core ignoring custom DynamicRouteValueTransformer
I have created a custom DynamicRouteValueTransformer to help me switch between 2 controllers and actions but the route values are not being used by ASP.NET Core. Here is how the tranform looks; 
    public class UserModeTransformer : DynamicRouteValueTransformer
    {
        /*public readonly ApplicationDbContext _context;

        public UserModeTransformer(ApplicationDbContext context)
        {
            _context = context;
        }*/

        public override async ValueTask<RouteValueDictionary> TransformAsync(HttpContext httpContext, RouteValueDictionary values)
        {
            values = new RouteValueDictionary();
            values["area"] = "Candidate";
            values["controller"] = "SocialController";
            values["action"] = "Index"; 
            return values;
        }
    }
    public class UserModeTransformer : DynamicRouteValueTransformer
    {
        /*public readonly ApplicationDbContext _context;

        public UserModeTransformer(ApplicationDbContext context)
        {
            _context = context;
        }*/

        public override async ValueTask<RouteValueDictionary> TransformAsync(HttpContext httpContext, RouteValueDictionary values)
        {
            values = new RouteValueDictionary();
            values["area"] = "Candidate";
            values["controller"] = "SocialController";
            values["action"] = "Index"; 
            return values;
        }
    }
For now I am just providing the controller and action but it is returning 404 error in the browser although the controllers and actions exist.
