    Getting the absolute URL of the hostname or the root URL

    I have a site with a few subdomains on it that use all use the same navigation and footer (via partial macros)

    Content tree
    - www.mainsite.com
    - subdomain1.mainsite.com
    - subdomain2.mainsite.com

    Is there a way to pull in the absolute URL of the "www.mainsite.com" without actually typing that in to all of the href's for the nav and footer? I assumed there would be an easy way to do this, and I have tried a few solutions - but none have worked.

    Here is what HASN'T worked so far:

    @Request.Url.ToString()
    @Request.RawUrl.ToString()

    @Request.UserHostName
    @Request.Url.AbsoluteUri
    @Request.Url.AbsolutePath
    @Request.Url.Host
    @Request.Url.Scheme
    @Request.Url.Authority
    @Request.Url.AbsolutePath

    Any idea what the issue might be?

    Hi Mike!

    After experiencing a similar problem and coming across your question, I have found a solution.

    In order to pull the current absolute URL you can create a string template which would dynamically render the absolute URL depending on the current path.

    string requestUrl = $"{Context.Request.Scheme}://{Context.Request.Host.ToString()}{Context.Request.PathBase}{Context.Request.Path}";

    Then pass the variable to where you wish to use the absolute URL.

    Hope it helps!
