Page Layout

The page layout is the simplest content layout in the theme. It wraps your content in the standard site chrome and optionally shows a title and subtype label.

Usage

To use the Page layout in your Jekyll site, create a page with the following front matter:

---
layout: page
title: About
---

Parameters

Parameter Default Description
layout Required Must be set to page
title None Page title shown above the content
subtype None Small label shown above the title
tag None Used as a fallback title in tag-based pages

Functionality

  1. Renders the page inside the default theme layout.
  2. Shows a title when title is present.
  3. Shows a subtype label above the title when subtype is present.
  4. Falls back to page.tag as the title in tag-oriented pages.

Example Usage

---
layout: page
title: About this site
subtype: Guide

Notes

  • This is a good default layout for standalone markdown pages.
  • If you need repository cards, post timelines, or profile content, use a more specific layout instead.
