The LinkTitle method returns the linkTitle field as defined in front matter, falling back to the value returned by the Title method.

{{< code-toggle file=content/articles/healthy-desserts.md fm=true >}} title = 'Seventeen delightful recipes for healthy desserts' linkTitle = 'Dessert recipes' {{< /code-toggle >}}

go-html-template
{{ .LinkTitle }} → Dessert recipes

As demonstrated above, defining a link title in front matter is advantageous when the page title is long. Use it when generating anchor elements in your templates:

go-html-template
<a href="{{ .RelPermalink }}">{{ .LinkTitle }}</a>
