Any integrated way in CodeIgniter how to check if I am on a homepage? - El Forum - 05-15-2012

I mean I am looking for CI equivalent of WP is_home() or is_front_page() function?

Is there something like that? I mean I would like to do something simple such as:

Code:
&lt;?php if(is_home()) echo 'This is homepage'; ?&gt;

Thanks in advance.

There's no specific function for that, but you can create a helper to do it. You'd use something like $this->uri->uri_string() to see what the current URL is, and compare that to what your homepage URL woud be (typically an empty string, or "index.php").

Thanks it is working Wink

Code:
if($this->uri->uri_string() == '') echo 'This is homepage');

I will create a helper for future use.
