I have a Facebook Pixel control that needs migrated to AC9.

Part of the control needs to know which page is being rendered so it can create the appropriate javascript required by Facebook.

But how do I tell if I'm on a product page, or a category page?

In Able Gold, I could pull in HttpContext.Current.Request and look at the Url property. It would contain the original (native) url before anything got converted to the actual url.

That isn't the case in Able v9.

You can use the following code

Code:
if (CurrentRequestData.PageData.PageType == PageDataType.Product)
{
}

Works perfectly, thank you!

A helper class just for identifying application pages would sure be handy:
IsBasketPage()
IsPasswordReset()
IsCheckoutBilling()
IsCheckoutPayment()
IsReceiptPage()

That sort of thing. a LOT of these pixel/page tracking snippets are page-dependent.

I know WebpageController has IsReceiptPage() but would just be nice to have them all in one helper class.
