Hi Support Team, I have tried to check how component in Lithium queries data for 4 pages above.There is an issue need to get advise from Lithium support.Scenario:Once we access URL as below http://community.digi.com.my/t5/Blog/bg-p/11112222http://community.digi.com.my/t5/Reviews/bg-p/Reviewshttp://community.digi.com.my/t5/Let-s-Inspire/bg-p/LetsInspirehttp://community.digi.com.my/t5/New-Digi/bg-p/NewAtDigiWe want to get last part of URL in this case is "Reviews" and then pass that parameter to component name "recent-blog-posts"And in component we will get parameter by using code as below<#assign category = http.request.parameters.name.get("category", "") />Question: Where should check that component is used in admin of Lithium?How can we parse parameter from URL after /bg-p and then pass that parameter to component recent-blog-posts?11112222ReviewsLetsInspireNewAtDigiThanks,Mickey

I'm not sure, but it seems that what coreNode.idreturns is not the blog, but the id of your instance/community, to what quilt/page (like BlogPage etc.) do you add this custom component? Is it doing the same if you copy the entire code into a differently named component (like "cmp.blog.recent")? (might be that there is a standard component with the same name, just a guess...that could cause trouble). you could kind of make your code more robust by checking that you are on a blog node, like: <#if coreNode.nodeType == "blog"> // do your stuff<#else> // not in a blog node </#if>

I also tried as below code in component recent-blog-posts<#assign url = http.request.url /><#assign parts = url?split("/") /><#assign category = parts[(parts?size)-1] />Hello category ${category} You can see result at https://communitystg.digi.com.my/t5/Blog/bg-p/11112222 Hello category = recent-blog-posts?render_behavior=raw&page=1 It should be Hello category = 11112222 Could you please advise how to retrieve 11112222? Thanks

kiettuongwork1. Add below line in a custom component https://prnt.sc/j14dzs<#assign Blog_id = coreNode.id />Blog id = ${Blog_id}2. Add the component on blog page https://prnt.sc/j14ehe3. Check the value on the blog page https://prnt.sc/j14df3

Thanks for your reply.But it does not work https://communitystg.digi.com.my/t5/Blog/bg-p/11112222

kiettuongwork there are several things you can try, I would do it as follows: <#-- assuming URL: https://communitystg.digi.com.my/t5/Blog/bg-p/11112222 with the goal to extract the number at the end, e.g. 11112222 --> <#assign url = http.request.url /> <#-- first split away any URL parameters, that's the stuff after a question mark "?" what you seem to want is a url-path element, basically what we want is everything before a possible question mark --> <#assign urlparts = url?split("?")?first /> <#-- we then split that first part at every slash "/" --> <#assign urlparts = url?split("?")?first?split("/") /> <#-- and eventually select just the last bit of that sequence to get what you want --> <#assign urlparts = url?split("?")?first?split("/")?last /> <#-- of course you do not need to do that assignment 3 times, once is enough, e.g. like this: --> <#assign urlparts = url?split("?")?first?split("/")?last /> ${urlparts} hope it helps!

I also tried as below code in component recent-blog-posts
<#assign url = http.request.url />
<#assign parts = url?split("/") />
<#assign category = parts[(parts?size)-1] />
Hello category ${category}

You can see result at
https://communitystg.digi.com.my/t5/Blog/bg-p/11112222

Hello category = recent-blog-posts?render_behavior=raw&page=1

It should be Hello category = 11112222

Could you please advise how to retrieve 11112222?

Thanks

  1. Add below line in a custom component https://prnt.sc/j14dzs
  <#assign Blog_id = coreNode.id />
  Blog id = ${Blog_id}
  2. Add the component on blog page https://prnt.sc/j14ehe
  3. Check the value on the blog page https://prnt.sc/j14df3

Blog id is = ${coreNode.id}

this one should work if the url is http://community.digi.com.my/t5/Blog/bg-p/11112222

it should return 11112222
