I want to get the links to the current repl that’s not the cover page(aka repl.co) in JavaScript but I don’t know how. Also, how do I redirect to another page in js?

If I remember correctly:

var currentURL = window.location.href;
console.log(currentURL);

Now, how do I redirect to another site?

ah, you beat me to it, I got distracted lol. that includes the current page (like if you’re on /about then that logs https://SLUG--username.repl.co/about if dat makes sense)

location.replace('/');

For some reason, it does name—author.repl.co instead, which won’t work with what I’m doing.

nvm actually, it’s because I coded something wrong.

How tho do I detect if it’s in the cover page or a webview?

Ok so a couple things to know before posting your question to Ask:

  1. Figure it out yourself, or, at least try to. It doesn’t take more than a quick Google search to figure out how to redirect a user and it shouldn’t be too hard to find a solution to seeing if your webpage is in an iframe.
  2. If you’re trying to achieve X, don’t ask for how to do Y because you think Y will help you achieve X. In this case, you thought that getting the window’s location would allow for you to check if a user is viewing through the cover page, however that isn’t the case (well, I’m assuming that’s why you asked to get the current link of the page with JS).
  3. Always look to see if your question has been answered. Kind of similar to #1 but not the same. In your case, the question has already been answered (but I can’t find the topic lol. I’ll post the solution here when I find it)

I’m trying to make a turbowarp(turbowarp is a mod of scratch that has many custom features, including custom extension) extensions template, and when the run button is used, it’s supposed to redirect to https://turbowarp.org/editor?extension=https://repl-name—author-repl.co and Replit cover page embeds sites whenever it redirects, which turbowarp doesn’t allow embeds.

Also, I’ve tried to look for someone else with the same problem, but I was unsuccesful.

I believe this has been asked before, an easy check is this: window.top === window which checks if the current window is the top window or not, of our isn’t, the code is in an iframe or pop-up

window.open("some url"); (I think in that case window.top will be different from window but not 100% sure)

Thanks. If only I could mark multiple answers as solutions, that would be nice.

That’ll never be added because separate questions should have separate topics.

You can make a reply to your topic quoting all of the solutions, and mark your reply as the solution.

Well, if you ask two operations you want to perform on a string, for example, and person A tells you the first one you wanted to know and person B tells you the other part.
