Set views contextual filter as request_path()












0















Theme



I have a content type with image and URL fields, I need to show image as banner on the path where URL field is matched with requested path using views.



I tried with



1-> adding "Alias" field as contextual filter in views.



2-> adding URL field



3-> I also tried with URL field with PHP Code in contextual filter:



if(drupal_is_front_page()) {
return '<front>';
}else{
return request_path();
}


3rd point works partially for only one path argument, like if current requested path is services/one and views contextual filter only takes first path component as you can see in attached image
enter image description here
However, I need to set contextual filter with whole path no matter how many components are requested.



How would I do that?

          I have done this by embedding the views block in tlp and passing the URL field filter by code. See code below:



          $path = request_path();

          $query = 'SELECT field_url_url FROM {field_data_field_url}
          WHERE bundle = :bundle AND entity_type = :entity_type AND field_url_url = :field_url_url';

          $path = db_query($query, array(
          ':bundle'=>'page_banner',
          ':entity_type'=>'node',
          ':field_url_url'=> $path
          ))->fetchField();

          if (!empty($path)):
          print views_embed_view('page_banner','block', $path);
          endif;


          I hope this will help someone who needs to add contextual filter as request URL.
