Request Segment URL

Question

I'm trying to declare if a user is on a /uk or /us version of the site.

domain.com/uk/ domain.com/us/

{% if (craft.app.request.segments == '/uk/') %}
UK site
{% endif %}

This doesnt work. Can anyone explain why and where I'm going wrong?

Thank you

Answer 1

The request segments will come back as an array, where each part between slashes will be an array element so mysite.com/first/second/third gives segments [first,second,third]

If you're just looking for the first segment, you can try (craft.app.request.segments|first == 'uk') to get that information.

Answer 2

Assuming you're using Craft's multi-site functionality(?), you'll want to use something like {{ currentSite.handle }} to check which site they're on. For multiple sites configured to use sub-directories from a single domain name, the first segment of the URL is considered to be part of the siteUrl and will not be returned in the segments array.
