Layout

Specify the layout field in front matter to target a particular template. See details.

---
layout: contact
title: Contact

+++
layout = 'contact'
title = 'Contact'
+++

{
   "layout": "contact",
   "title": "Contact"
}

Hugo will render the page using contact.html.

layouts/
├── baseof.html
├── contact.html
├── home.html
├── page.html
├── section.html
├── taxonomy.html
└── term.html

Although rarely used within a template, you can access the value with:

{{ .Layout }}

The Layout method returns an empty string if the layout field in front matter is not defined.
