html - Create hreflang tags only using Liquid in Business catalyst -
i wondering if there more efficient way create hreflang tags, using liquid in bc, without need create webapp.
i tried way makes sense, doesn't work reason.
{% capture pagurl -%}{module_pageaddress}{% endcapture -%} {% if pagurl contains "http://us." -%} <link rel="alternate" href="{{ pagurl}}" hreflang="en-us" /> <link rel="alternate" href="{{ pagurl | replace: 'http://us', 'http://www' }}" hreflang="en-uk" /> <link rel="alternate" href="{{ pagurl | replace: 'http://us', 'http://au' }}" hreflang="en-au" /> <link rel="alternate" href="{{ pagurl | replace: 'http://us', 'http://eu' }}" hreflang="en" /> {% elsif pagurl contains "http://au." -%} <link rel="alternate" href="{{ pagurl}}" hreflang="en-au" /> <link rel="alternate" href="{{ pagurl | replace: 'http://au', 'http://www' }}" hreflang="en-uk" /> <link rel="alternate" href="{{ pagurl | replace: 'http://au', 'http://us' }}" hreflang="en-us" /> <link rel="alternate" href="{{ pagurl | replace: 'http://au', 'http://eu' }}" hreflang="en" /> {% elsif pagurl contains "http://eu." -%} <link rel="alternate" href="{{ pagurl}}" hreflang="en" /> <link rel="alternate" href="{{ pagurl | replace: 'http://eu', 'http://us' }}" hreflang="en-us" /> <link rel="alternate" href="{{ pagurl | replace: 'http://eu', 'http://au' }}" hreflang="en-au" /> <link rel="alternate" href="{{ pagurl | replace: 'http://eu', 'http://www' }}" hreflang="en-uk" /> {% elseif pagurl contains "http://www." -%} <link rel="alternate" href="{{ pagurl}}" hreflang="en-uk" /> <link rel="alternate" href="{{ pagurl | replace: 'http://www', 'http://us' }}" hreflang="en-us" /> <link rel="alternate" href="{{ pagurl | replace: 'http://www', 'http://au' }}" hreflang="en-au" /> <link rel="alternate" href="{{ pagurl | replace: 'http://www', 'http://eu' }}" hreflang="en" /> {% else -%} {% endif -%} the weird part is, following works on same page.
{% capture pagurl -%}{module_pageaddress}{% endcapture -%} {{ pagurl}}<br> {{ pagurl | replace: 'http://www', 'http://us' }}<br> {{ pagurl | replace: 'http://www', 'http://au' }}<br> {{ pagurl | replace: 'http://www', 'http://eu' }}<br> and works
{{ pagurl | replace: 'http://www', 'http://us' | prepend: '<link rel="alternate" href="' | append: '" hreflang="en-us" />' }} the shorter code better of course.
ok daut, you're going love this! ;p
i ran similar obstacles when working on solution this issue. (i'll explain below).
as far can tell, bc has issues around rendering of liquid when comes urls , variables. don't understand ins , outs of liquid in terms of server-side processing things not appear work should in bc.
for example, if take code , strip bare essentials:
this (whether inserted <head> or <body>) doesn't work:
{% capture pagurl -%} {module_pageaddress} {% endcapture -%} <link rel="alternate" href="{{pagurl}}" hreflang="en-us"> it outputs <link rel="alternate" href="{{pagurl}}" hreflang="en-us">, {{pagurl}} being literal text rendered.
but work:
{% capture pagurl -%} {module_pageaddress} {% endcapture -%} {% assign test = '<link rel="alternate" href="' | append: {{pagurl}} | append: '" hreflang="en-us">' -%} {{test}} compare above issues ran into.
this doesn't work:
{module_pageaddress collection="page" template=""} {module_siteurl collection="site" template=""} {% assign fullurl = "http://{{site.siteurl}}/" -%} {% if page.pageurl == {{fullurl}} -%} // on home page {% else -%} // not on home page {% endif -%} the problem here {{site.siteurl}} inside variable declaration. not sure issue can't handle jandle.
but work:
{module_pageaddress collection="page" template=""} {module_siteurl collection="site" template=""} {% assign fullurl = 'http://' | append: {{site.siteurl}} | append: '/' -%} {% if page.pageurl == {{fullurl}} -%} // on home page {% else -%} // not on home page {% endif -%} and getting example, (ironically) this works:
{% capture pagurl -%} {module_pageaddress} {% endcapture -%} <a href="{{pagurl}}">test</a> go figure.
i'm pretty sure bc has automatic way of grabbing head elements contained anywhere on page , re-inserting them head (even if inserted head begin with).
i wonder if causes problems in cases <link rel="alternate" href="{{pagurl}}" hreflang="en-us">. doesn't explain issue ran though.
end of day, think there still big issues bc's implementation of liquid.
