Safari shows only the URL (Domain) name when you visit a web page by default. For example, when you open a blog article with a slug, it shows only the domain name in Safari. However, the latest macOS versions introduce an innovative feature that lets you see the full website address within the Safari URL bar.

If thatโ€™s the scenario, youโ€™re blindly going to the website but unaware of the precise URL for the article you are viewing. Therefore, if you would like to view the entire URL of the website in the Safari app, you must look up the article and then display the complete URL in the Safari URL bar.

  2. Now a new window pops up and you must switch to the Advanced tab.
  3. After that, you need to check the Show full website address option.
  4. Now exit the Safari browser, open it again, and visit any website and open any article. Now you can see the full URL of that website.

After applying the above settings, Safari now displays the full URL. You can view and copy the URL of the site youโ€™re looking for by clicking the link within the address bar. However, this method will display the complete URL immediately without clicking that address bar.
