## The `.Site.Params` Variable
|
|
|
|
`.Site.Params` is a container holding the values from the `params` section of your site configuration.
|
|
|
|
### Example: `.Site.Params`
|
|
|
|
The following `config.toml` defines a site-wide param for `description`:
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
baseURL = "http://yoursite.example.com/"
|
|
|
|
[params]
|
|
description = "Tesla's Awesome Hugo Site"
|
|
author = "Nikola Tesla"
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
You can use `.Site.Params` in a [partial template](/templates/partials/) to call the default site description:
|
|
|
|
{{< code file="layouts/partials/head.html" >}}
|
|
<meta name="description" content="{{if .IsHome}}{{ $.Site.Params.description }}{{else}}{{.Description}}{{end}}" />
|
|
{{< /code >}}
|
