I am trying to rebuild a blog in Jekyll and I have stubled upon a simple task.
Provided I have the following set of templates:
default.html:
{{ head }}
{{ content }}
frontpage.html:
---
layout: default
---
{% capture head %}
Frontpage
{% end %}
{{ content }}
index.html:
---
layout: frontpage
---
Other stuff
I was expecting that {% capture head %}
would pass a variable to layout. But it seems only variables from the Front Matter are actually being passed as page.variable_name
.
Is there a way to pass capture
-d var to the layout in Jekyll?
Guess I could make 2 different layouts for frontpage
and normal_page
that would replace the whole {{head}}{{content}}
block in the layout. But that's like twice the html, so I'd rather solve it with capture
if possible.
