- if request.fullpath != "/" || "/info" ignores second link

Question

Sorry for the badly worded title, I currently have this if statement:

- if request.fullpath == "/" || "/info"

Which works fine, but the other one, that should do the opposite, ignores the second address.

- if request.fullpath != "/" || "/info"

It acts as if it just says:

- if request.fullpath != "/"

Or with Rails String in? method :

- unless request.fullpath.in?("/", "/info")

or

- if !request.fullpath.in?("/", "/info")

Try this:

- if request.fullpath != "/" || request.fullpath != "/info"

the part on the right is evaluated independantly of the equality test on the left

Wait a minute, you are using ruby:

- if %w(/ /info).include? request.fullpath
#and opposite
- unless %w(/ /info).include? request.fullpath
