Full Frontmatter Example

by Shane Robinson

Currently, the frontmatter in the index.md file houses all the values and controls currently available…even if they aren’t used on the home page.

Any of the frontmatter elements used on the home page can be used on ANY Page or Post in this system.

As of this posting, the index.md frontmatter looks like this:

# This is a full listing of available Frontmatter options, available for any content (.md) file.
title: Let's talk about static sites!
layout: page
excerpt: # used for page excerpts and META (will be overwritten if SEO used below)
author: shane-robinson # only displayed on Post lists and detail views. Defaults to _data/meta.authorURL
eleventyNavigation: # Required if want to display in Main Nav Bar
key: main # "main" is required
title: Welcome # as it will appear in the nav
order: 1 # order to display in the nav (index = 1)
seo: # SEO values are used for OG and will overwrite 'title' and 'excerpt' above
title:
