SPGetCurrentSite - SPServices

Function

$().SPServices.SPGetCurrentSite

Certification

Functionality

This utility function, which is also publicly available, simply returns the current site’s URL. It mirrors the functionality of the WebUrlFromPageUrl operation.

Note: There is a bug in the versions 2013.01, 2013.02, and 2014.01 where only the relative path ("/") is returned rather than the full path ("http://servername/sitename"). This causes problems in the root site for $().SPServices.SPGetCurrentSite and $().SPServices.SPGetCurrentUser.

Syntax

$().SPServices.SPGetCurrentSite();

Example

var thisSite = $().SPServices.SPGetCurrentSite();

Available Options

None

Returns

The current site URL as a string. For example, if the current page is:

http://servername/sitename/Pages/default.aspx or
http://servername/sitename/Shared%20Documents/Forms/EditForm.aspx or
http://servername/sitename/Lists/Calendar/NewForm.aspx

the function will return:

http://servername/sitename
