$input→urlSegmentStr()

Get the string of URL segments separated by slashes

Note that return value lacks leading or trailing slashes.
URL segments must be enabled in the template settings (for template used by the page).
The maximum segments allowed can be adjusted in your $config->maxUrlSegments setting.
URL segments are populated by ProcessWire automatically on each request.
URL segments are already sanitized as page names.
The URL segment string can also be accessed by property: $input->urlSegmentStr.

Example

// Adjust output according to urlSegmentStr
// In this case our urlSegmentStr is 2 URL segments
$s = $input->urlSegmentStr();
if($s == 'photos/large') {
  // show large photos
} else if($s == 'photos/small') {
  // show small photos
} else if($s == 'map') {
  // show map
} else if(strlen($s)) {
  // something we don't recognize
  throw new Wire404Exception();
} else {
  // no URL segments present, do some default behavior
  echo $page->body;
}

Usage

// basic usage
$string = $input->urlSegmentStr();

// usage with all arguments
$string = $input->urlSegmentStr($verbose = false, array $options = []);
