Error CS0117 'Mapper' does not contain a definition for 'CreateMap' Store.Web

MVCArchitecture-master\mvcarchitecture-master\Store.Web\Mappings\ViewModelToDomainMappingProfile.cs 21 Active

Update your Nuget packages, except the Automapper. Keep the Automapper to 4.2.0, since the CreateMap method was depricated and eventually removed in v5.0.
It would give you this error otherwise:

AutoMapper.Mapper does not contain definition for CreateMap

Automapper v4.2.0 will resolve your particular issue.

You can update alright but create your mappings in the constructor of the DomainToViewModelMappingProfile and ViewModelToDomainMappingProfile. So they end up looking like this,

public class DomainToViewModelMappingProfile : Profile
    {
        public override string ProfileName
        {
            get { return "DomainToViewModelMappings"; }
        }

        public DomainToViewModelMappingProfile()
        {
            CreateMap<Category, CategoryViewModel>();
            CreateMap<Gadget, GadgetViewModel>();
        }
    }

public class ViewModelToDomainMappingProfile : Profile
    {
        public override string ProfileName { get { return "ViewModelToDomainMappings"; } }

        public ViewModelToDomainMappingProfile()
        {
            CreateMap<GadgetFormViewModel, Gadget>()
                .ForMember(g => g.Name, map => map.MapFrom(vm => vm.GadgetTitle))
                .ForMember(g => g.Description, map => map.MapFrom(vm => vm.GadgetDescription))
                .ForMember(g => g.Price, map => map.MapFrom(vm => vm.GadgetPrice))
                .ForMember(g => g.Image, map => map.MapFrom(vm => vm.File.FileName))
                .ForMember(g => g.CategoryID, map => map.MapFrom(vm => vm.GadgetCategory));
        }
    }
