There is no {{ sites }} tag to loop over sites

[riasvdv]

Bug Description

A {{ sites }} tag does not exist.

[eldor]

Agree with @riasvdv we need the {{ sites }}available in antlers templates to switch between multiple sites.

[riasvdv]

{{ locales }} seems to return sites data, but only the sites that the current entry is available & published in. There should be a way to get all sites

A bit ugly, but you can do this:

{{ foreach:config:statamic:sites:sites as="handle|site" }}
    {{ handle }} {{ site:name }} {{ site:locale }} {{ site:url }} <br>
{{ /foreach:config:statamic:sites:sites }}

<?php
return [
    'sites' => [
        'default' => [
            'name' => 'English',
            'locale' => 'en_US',
            'url' => '/',
        ],
        'french' => [
            'name' => 'French',
            'locale' => 'fr_FR',
            'url' => '/french/',
        ],
    ]
],

english English en_US /
french French fr_FR /french/

Hi @jasonvarga, yes that is working, but as you wrote your self, its a but ugly, but will do for now.

Tampering with this. With that workaround you can't get the localised url for the current entry if it's there right?

[robdekort]

Haha ok. I've got two locales on this site. So I always want to show a link to the localised url for the current entry. If the entry is not localised the {{ locales }} wouldn't show anything and I do need to signal the visitor that there are localised pages. It's horrible but I settled for this if anyone needs it:

{{ locales }}
    {{ unless locale.key == current }}
        <li>
            <a href="{{ url }}">{{ locale.key }}</a>
        </li>
    {{ /unless }}
    {{ if total_results == 1 }}
        {{ foreach:config:statamic:sites:sites as="handle|site" }}
            {{ unless locale.key == handle }}
                <li>
                    <a href="{{ site:url }}">{{ handle }}</a>
                </li>
            {{ /unless }}
        {{ /foreach:config:statamic:sites:sites }}
    {{ /if }}
{{ /locales }}

[verybigelephants]
