Whats the difference?

Hi,
May i know whats the difference of these variables :
    ${site_default_public_url}
    ${community_default_public_url}
    ${site_default_url}
    ${community_default_url}

In the sense when to use which?
Because i tried outputting it on my theme, and all 4 outputs the same URL.

Thanks.

I would set the theme on your private pages and check the difference, I think you'll see one there.


The community ones I'm not sure about, they might be holdover variable names from previous portal versions.

You could check the init.ftl (you can find it in the build/templates folder after you build your theme war). It contains the definitions of those variables.

...
    site_default_public_url = htmlUtil.escape(page_group.getDisplayURL(theme_display, false))
    community_default_public_url = site_default_public_url
    site_default_private_url = htmlUtil.escape(page_group.getDisplayURL(theme_display, true))
    community_default_private_url = site_default_private_url
    site_default_url = site_default_public_url
    community_default_url = site_default_url
/>
<#if layout.isPrivateLayout()>
    <#assign
        site_default_url = site_default_private_url
        community_default_url = site_default_url
    />
