The following examples pull from a content file with the following front matter:

{{% code file="content/blog/greatest-city.md" copy="false"%}}

+++
title = "The World's Greatest City"
location = "Chicago IL"
tags = ["pizza","beer","hot dogs"]
+++

{{% /code %}}

The following might be used as a partial within a single page template:

{{% code file="layouts/partials/content-header.html" download="content-header.html" %}}

<header>
    <h1>{{.Title}}</h1>
    {{ with .Params.location }}
        <div><a href="/locations/{{ . | urlize}}">{{.}}</a></div>
    {{ end }}
    <!-- Creates a list of tags for the content and links to each of their pages -->
    {{ with .Params.tags }}
    <ul>
        {{range .}}
            <li>
                <a href="/tags/{{ . | urlize }}">{{ . }}</a>
            </li>
        {{end}}
    </ul>
    {{ end }}
</header>

{{% /code %}}

The preceding partial would then output to the rendered page as follows, assuming the page is being built with Hugo's default pretty URLs.

{{% output file="/blog/greatest-city/index.html" %}}

<header>
    <h1>The World's Greatest City</h1>
    <div><a href="/locations/chicago-il/">Chicago IL</a></div>
    <ul>
        <li>
            <a href="/tags/pizza">pizza</a>
        </li>
        <li>
            <a href="/tags/beer">beer</a>
        </li>
        <li>
            <a href="/tags/hot-dogs">hot dogs</a>
        </li>
    </ul>
</header>

{{% /output %}}
