Get the full URL in PHP

Answer 1

HTTP_HOST and REQUEST_URI must be in quotes, otherwise it throws an error in PHP 7.2

Use:

$actual_link = 'https://'.$_SERVER['HTTP_HOST'].$_SERVER['REQUEST_URI'];

If you want to support both HTTP and HTTPS:

$actual_link = (isset($_SERVER['HTTPS']) ? 'https' : 'http').'://'.$_SERVER['HTTP_HOST'].$_SERVER['REQUEST_URI'];
