NEW - Fetch Current URI plugin…

No, I’m just using version 1.02 of the original plugin. I also tried version 1.00. I believe the problem maybe that the plugin is pulling the details from EE itself and not the $_SERVER . I don’t know. But the fact that I’m stripping out the index.php everywhere else in EE and the addition of the / is reflected in the url, at the base level. I even went into PHP and just added the line

<?php global $IN; echo $IN->URI; ?>

and the adjustments are reflected there as well.

I’ve currently just switched to

<?php echo $_SERVER["HTTP_HOST"] . $_SERVER["REQUEST_URI"] ?>

but am trying to figure out how to store as a variable or something shorter so I can build the url from that.

Ah I see what you mean now. You are indeed right that the plugin creates the URL using built-in ExpressionEngine code methods. I didn’t want to use server variables as I wasn’t too well versed with them when I wrote the plugin so just went with the built-in functions instead.

Saying that though you can very easily create a current URL by doing something like this though :

{homepage}{segment_1}/{segment_2}/{segment_3}/{segment_4}/{segment_5}/{segment_6}/{segment_7}/{segment_8}/{segment_9}

That should hopefully get you what you need?

Helloo.

Can this easily be updated to be EE2.0 compatible? I’m using it in a site i’m upgrading to EE2.0!!

Thanks.

I’m definitely not a hardcore coder by any means, but it turns out i’m pretty good at modyfing! I compared this plug-in to an EE2.0 plug-in and attempted to make some tweaks to make it work with EE2.0.. and much to my surprise it worked!

I’m not sure if i’m allowed to post the altered file / whether you plan to do it yourself Mark?

Agreed with the above, I’d definitely like to use this wit EE 2.0 unless there is a function in 2.0 to do the same already?

Oops sorry for not replying to this one sooner everyone.

Salmoon that’s fine if you want to post the 2.0 version by all means.

Best wishes,

Mark
