check if page is a post-page in header

[Tanja Orme]

Hi,

I think the shortest version of my question is, how can I check in the header (base-header) if the page is a post-page (direct link to the blog-post) or an index/page/other?

More precise, I would like to put the links to translated posts in the header, instead of in the post-area. Is this possible?

Kind regards,

Tanja

I *think* what you want is the "kind" from the context? Not near a computer so can't check

Yeah, I'd like to know if the page presented is a 'story' or a 'post', basically. Can I do that in the base-header template?

I meant literally, use the "kind" variable :-)

Looking at the code it's actually called pagekind and can be (among other things) "story_page", "page_page" or "post_page"

There's a little bit about it on the docs here: https://getnikola.com/theming.html#identifying-and-customizing-different-kinds-of-pages-with-a-shared-template

Oh haha, sorry, I've been ill for a while and my brain doesn't work as well as it used to.

I think that's exactly what I want, thanks!
