How to use is_page_template conditional tag in Sage 9 Beta 3

I am trying to use the conditional tag “is_page_template” in a Blade template that resides in partials. I’m using Sage 9 Beta 3, and I can’t figure out what to put in for the template file argument. Nothing I’ve tried has worked.
Ergo:
is_page_template(‘template-nofeat.blade.php’)
is_page_template(‘template-nofeat.php’)
is_page_template(‘nofeat.blade.php’)
is_page_template(‘nofeat.php’)
is_page_template(‘template-omfgwtf.php’)

None of that works. Just for giggles, I tried a plain is_page_template() with no argument and it worked in as much as it recognized the page does have a template applied, so I know my code is correct.

I can’t find any other posts with this question so I must be really not understanding how this Blade templating works. Can anyone help please?

If you var_dump get_page_template() you will see the page template name.

You could always do something like:

if(basename(get_page_template()) == "template-nofeat.blade.php")

When I ran the var_dump, I just got the full path of the custom template. Tried the full path which didn’t work either.

This works, but I don’t feel like it’s optimal:

/**
 * Display sidebar
 */
add_filter('sage/display_sidebar', function ($display) {
    static $display;

    isset($display) || $display = in_array(true, [
        // The sidebar will be displayed if any of the following return true
        is_page()
    ]);

    if (basename(get_page_template()) == "template-full-width.blade.php")
        $display = false;

    return $display;
});

Is there a better way to do that? I mean, it works but is like a dirty workaround :thinking:

I found a way guys.
Since you are in a custom page you can access to the post meta in the database and check the page template in this way
{{ get_post_meta( get_the_ID(), '_wp_page_template', TRUE ) }}
and this is returning the path of the page template.

Then if you do it:
{{ is_page_template('views/template-beautifulTemplateName.blade.php') }}
everything works :yum:

Tested in filters.php too:

Yeah this is a mess but it works :confused:

function display_sidebar()
{
    static $display;
    $get_page_template = basename(get_page_template());

    isset($display) || $display = in_array(true, [
        $get_page_template == 'page-sidebar.blade.php'
    ]);
    return $display;
}

I’m trying to get the primary sidebar to only appear on the main blog page and single post pages. I’ve got it working fine on the single post pages with ‘is_single()’, However can’t get the other blog/posts page to show the sidebar.

The page for the posts is ‘index.blade.php’ but on every page I visit after adding ‘{!! get_page_template() !!}’ , it seems to say ‘page.blade.php’ even when the page isn’t using ‘page.blade.php’.

I’ve tried:
is_page_template('views/index.blade.php')

is_page_template('index.blade.php')

is_page_template('views/page.blade.php')

function display_sidebar()
{
    static $display;
    $get_page_template = basename(get_page_template());

    isset($display) || $display = in_array(true, [
        $get_page_template == 'index.blade.php'
    ]);
    return $display;
}

Any help is much appreciated

Can you use is_home() ?
