check if i'm on the main page of each section

raminrahimi · 2017-08-01 06:01:26

I’ve three sections (India, USA, Canada) and created each page (template) for each section, now i want:
when i’m on the main page of each section, want to appear a slider of each country,
example if the page url is:
http://localhost/india (india slider will appear)
http://localhost/usa (usa slider will appear)
http://localhost/canada (canada slider will appear)

i tried with this, but didn’t answer 100% what i want

<txp:variable name="home" value='<txp:page_url />' />
<txp:if_variable name="home" value='/cananda/'>
slider...

note: i don’t want to see the slider on any other pages like individual article, category, search, pagination, author

I think that glx_if is still working just fine. It provides tags like: <glx_if_section_frontpage />.

If you are trying to do it without a plugin, could you please tell us how you would like the site to work? ie Do your sections have pagination when you are in an article list environment?

<txp:if_section name="india,usa,canada">
	<txp:if_individual_article>
	<txp:else />
		<!-- slider here -->
	</txp:if_individual_article>
</txp:if_section>

i can do that by long codes to add on each page (template) of section like the following, but i think it’s not professional way:

<txp:if_search>
<txp:if_author>
<txp:if_category>
<txp:if_individual_article>
<txp:else />
... my-slider ...
</txp:if_individual_article>
</txp:if_category>
</txp:if_author>
</txp:if_search>

Why would you need a page per section? And what is wrong with your <txp:if_variable name="home" value='/canada/'> approach?

<txp:if_article_list>
    ...
</txp:if_article_list>

<txp:if_individual_article>
    ...
</txp:if_individual_article>

This has been my solution for that. I like everything highly modular.

<txp:variable name="task" value="frontpage" />

<txp:if_category><txp:variable name="task" value="category" /></txp:if_category>

<txp:if_search><txp:variable name="task" value="search" /></txp:if_search>

<txp:if_author><txp:variable name="task" value="author" /></txp:if_author>

<txp:output_form form='task-<txp:variable name="task" />' />

why would you need …
i’ve different styles because of that different page per section.

what is wrong with …
because if someone write without / (http://localhost/canada) it will not run that variable.
people write sometime with / and sometime without that, like:
http://localhost/canada
http://localhost/canada/

i just found a good solution :-)


<txp:variable name="main" value='<txp:page_url type="id" />-<txp:page_url type="q" />-<txp:page_url type="c" />-<txp:page_url type="author" />-' />
<txp:if_variable name="main" value="----">
   ...slider...
</txp:if_variable>
