soo_if_frontpage

Summary:

Check if current page is a section front page

Overview

Similar to the glx_if_frontpage tag from the no-longer-supported glx_if plugin. Most of glx_if’s functionality is now available through core Txp tags, but not this (well, not without an absurd stack of conditional tags). To glx_if_frontpage it adds txp:else /> compatibility, and a couple of attributes for more control.

soo_if_frontpage evaluates to true if the current page context is:

• an article list, and;
• not search results, and;
• not a listing of articles by category, and;
• not a listing of articles by author, and;
• not a listing of articles by month, and;
• (optionally) in one of the sections listed in the section attribute, and;
• (optionally) a single-page list or the first page of a multi-page list, if the pg attribute is set.

Usage

<txp:soo_if_frontpage>
...
<txp:else />
...
</txp:soo_if_frontpage>

Attributes

None required.

• section (Txp section name[s])
  Comma-separated list of allowed sections.
• pg (boolean) default false
  Whether or not to check for the “pg” URL query param (e.g., http://my-site.com/?pg=2).
  Set pg="1" to allow only single-page lists or the first page of a multi-page list.
