Re: How to Detect Current Page as Homepage?

You can retrieve the url variable that you are interested in with 
evaluating this variable
request.path

Use this link for more details

http://www.djangobook.com/en/2.0/chapter07/

This is an example from the above source

def current_url_view_good(request):
return HttpResponse("Welcome to the page at %s" % request.path)

wow. thank you very much! i didn't know the extra string passed in patterns 
inside a tuple was used in that way too. Does this have to do with 
get_absolute_url too?


This is what I did:

{% url satchmo_shop_home as home %}
{% if request.path == home %}{% endif %}

urlspatterns += patterns('satchmo_store.shop.views',
(r'^$', 'home.home', {}, 'satchmo_shop_home'),
...
)

Assuming your home is named "home" in your urls.py, you could try:

{% url home as home %}

{% if request.path == home %}{% endif %}

How to Detect Current Page as Homepage?

[easypie]

I'm trying to check {% if homepage %} then show  {% endif %}

I'm not sure how to go about a test to check the current page if it's my 
homepage. Do I need to mess around with context processors? What's the 
usual way of doing it? And how would the {% if ... %} look like?
