Every `Page` has a `Kind` attribute that shows what kind of page it is. While this attribute can be used to list pages of a certain `kind` using `where`, often it can be useful to fetch a single page by its path.
`.GetPage` looks up a page of a given `Kind` and `path`.
```
{{ with .Site.GetPage "section" "blog" }}{{ .Title }}{{ end }}
```
This method wil return `nil` when no page could be found, so the above will not print anything if the blog section isn't found.
For a regular page:
```
{{ with .Site.GetPage "page" "blog" "my-post.md" }}{{ .Title }}{{ end }}
```
Note that the path can also be supplied like this:
```
{{ with .Site.GetPage "page" "blog/my-post.md" }}{{ .Title }}{{ end }}
```
The valid page kinds are: *page, home, section, taxonomy and taxonomyTerm.*
## `.GetPage` Example
This code snippet---in the form of a [partial template][partials]---allows you to do the following:
1. Grab the index object of your `tags` [taxonomy][].
2. Assign this object to a variable, `$t`
3. Sort the terms associated with the taxonomy by popularity.
4. Grab the top two most popular terms in the taxonomy (i.e., the two most popular tags assigned to content.
{{% code file="grab-top-two-tags.html" %}}
```html
<ul class="most-popular-tags">
{{ $t := $.Site.GetPage "taxonomyTerm" "tags" }}
{{ range first 2 $t.Data.Terms.ByCount }}
<li>{{.}}</li>
{{ end }}
</ul>
```
