referrer

referrerstringRead-only

Gets the HTTP referrer header field.

The referrer is the address of the web page a site visitor was previously on before arriving at the current page, typically by clicking a link.

Note: When site visitors move from page to page within your site, the referrer property does not contain the address of the page the site visitor came from. This is because Wix sites are built as single page applications. To get the previous page a site visitor was visiting within your site, you can use wix-storage-frontend to store the visitor's current page and retrieve the visitor's previous page.

The viewMode property gets either:

  • "Site": When viewing a published site.
  • "Editor": When viewing a Wix Blocks built widget in the editor.

copyToClipboard( )

Copies text to a site visitor's clipboard.

The copyToClipboard() method copies the specified text to a site visitor's clipboard.

If a site visitor's browser doesn't support copying text to the clipboard programmatically, a modal popup that allows copying will be displayed. For example, when calling copyToClipboard() from a Firefox or Edge browser, a site visitor will see something similar to the popup shown below.

Copy To Clipboard Popup

The Promise returned by copyToClipboard() resolves when the specified text is copied to clipboard or the modal popup is closed. The Promise is rejected if a null value is passed as the toCopy parameter or if a site visitor's browser blocks the modal popup from opening.

Method Declaration
Copy
Method Parameters
