With this front matter:
{{< code-toggle file=content/news/annual-conference.md >}}
title = 'Annual conference'
date = 2023-10-17T15:11:37-07:00
display_related = true
[author]
email = 'jsmith@example.org'
name = 'John Smith'
{{< /code-toggle >}}
The `title` and `date` fields are standard parameters---the other fields are user-defined.
Access the custom parameters by [chaining] the [identifiers]:
```go-html-template
{{ .Params.display_related }} → true
{{ .Params.author.name }} → John Smith
```
In the template example above, each of the keys is a valid identifier. For example, none of the keys contains a hyphen. To access a key that is not a valid identifier, use the [`index`] function:
```go-html-template
{{ index .Params "key-with-hyphens" }} → 2023
```
