The `block` keyword allows you to define the outer shell of your pages' one or more master template(s) and then fill in or override portions as necessary.

## Base Template Lookup Order
|
|
|
|
{{< new-in "0.63.0" >}} Since Hugo v0.63, the base template lookup order closely follows that of the template it applies to (e.g. `_default/list.html`).
|
|
|
|
See [Template Lookup Order](/templates/lookup-order/) for details and examples.
|
|
|
|
## Define the Base Template
|
|
|
|
The following defines a simple base template at `_default/baseof.html`. As a default template, it is the shell from which all your pages will be rendered unless you specify another `*baseof.html` closer to the beginning of the lookup order.
|
|
|
|
{{< code file="layouts/_default/baseof.html" download="baseof.html" >}}
|
|
<!DOCTYPE html>
|
|
<html>
|
|
<head>
|
|
<meta charset="utf-8">
|
|
<title>{{ block "title" . }}
|
|
<!-- Blocks may include default content. -->
|
|
{{ .Site.Title }}
|
|
{{ end }}</title>
|
|
</head>
|
|
<body>
|
|
<!-- Code that all your templates share, like a header -->
|
|
{{ block "main" . }}
|
|
<!-- The part of the page that begins to differ between templates -->
|
|
{{ end }}
|
|
{{ block "footer" . }}
|
|
<!-- More shared code, perhaps a footer but that can be overridden if need be in -->
|
|
{{ end }}
|
|
</body>
|
|
</html>
|
|
{{< /code >}}
|
|
|
|
## Override the Base Template
|
|
|
|
From the above base template, you can define a [default list template][hugolists]. The default list template will inherit all of the code defined above and can then implement its own `"main"` block from:
|
|
|
|
{{< code file="layouts/_default/list.html" download="list.html" >}}
|
|
{{ define "main" }}
|
|
<h1>Posts</h1>
|
|
{{ range .Pages }}
|
|
<article>
|
|
<h2>{{ .Title }}</h2>
|
|
{{ .Content }}
|
|
</article>
|
|
{{ end }}
|
|
{{ end }}
|
|
{{< /code >}}
|
|
|
|
This replaces the contents of our (basically empty) "main" block with something useful for the list template. In this case, we didn't define a `"title"` block, so the contents from our base template remain unchanged in lists.
|
|
|
|
{{% warning %}}
|
|
Code that you put outside the block definitions *can* break your layout. This even includes HTML comments. For example:
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
<!-- Seemingly harmless HTML comment..that will break your layout at build -->
|
|
{{ define "main" }}
|
|
...your code here
|
|
{{ end }}
|
|
```
|
|
[See this thread from the Hugo discussion forums.](https://discourse.gohugo.io/t/baseof-html-block-templates-and-list-types-results-in-empty-pages/5612/6)
|
|
{{% /warning %}}
|
|
|
|
The following shows how you can override both the `"main"` and `"title"` block areas from the base template with code unique to your [default single page template][singletemplate]:
|
|
|
|
{{< code file="layouts/_default/single.html" download="single.html" >}}
|
|
{{ define "title" }}
|
|
<!-- This will override the default value set in baseof.html; i.e., "{{.Site.Title}}" in the original example-->
|
|
{{ .Title }} – {{ .Site.Title }}
|
|
{{ end }}
|
|
{{ define "main" }}
|
|
<h1>{{ .Title }}</h1>
|
|
{{ .Content }}
|
|
{{ end }}
|
|
{{< /code >}}
