## Single Page Template Lookup Order
See [Template Lookup](/templates/lookup-order/).
## Example Single Page Templates
Content pages are of the type `page` and will therefore have all the [page variables][pagevars] and [site variables][] available to use in their templates.
### `posts/single.html`
This single page template makes use of Hugo [base templates][], the [`.Format` function][] for dates, the [`.WordCount` page variable][pagevars], and ranges through the single content's specific [taxonomies][pagetaxonomy]. [`with`][] is also used to check whether the taxonomies are set in the front matter.
{{< code file="layouts/posts/single.html" download="single.html" >}}
{{ define "main" }}
<section id="main">
<h1 id="title">{{ .Title }}</h1>
<div>
<article id="content">
{{ .Content }}
</article>
</div>
</section>
<aside id="meta">

<section>
<h4 id="date"> {{ .Date.Format "Mon Jan 2, 2006" }} </h4>
<h5 id="wordcount"> {{ .WordCount }} Words </h5>
</section>
{{ with .Params.topics }}
<ul id="topics">
{{ range . }}
<li><a href="{{ "topics" | absURL}}{{ . | urlize }}">{{ . }}</a> </li>
{{ end }}
</ul>

{{ with .Params.tags }}
<ul id="tags">
