The following is a list of site-level (aka "global") variables. Many of these variables are defined in your site's configuration file, whereas others are built into Hugo's core for convenient usage in your templates.

All the methods below, e.g. .Site.RegularPages can also be reached via the global site function, e.g. site.RegularPages, which can be handy in partials where the Page object isn't easily available. {{< new-in "0.53" >}}.

The .Site.Params Variable

.Site.Params is a container holding the values from the params section of your site configuration.

Example: .Site.Params

{{< code-toggle file="config" >}} baseURL = "https://yoursite.example.com/"

[params] description = "Tesla's Awesome Hugo Site" author = "Nikola Tesla" {{</ code-toggle >}}

You can use .Site.Params in a partial template to call the default site description:

{{< code file="layouts/partials/head.html" >}}

{{< /code >}}

The .Site.Pages Variable

.Site.Pages compared to .Pages

{{< getcontent path="readfiles/pages-vs-site-pages.md" >}}
