Jekyll traverses your site looking for files to process. Any files with front matter are subject to processing. For each of these files, Jekyll makes a variety of data available via Liquid. The following is a reference of the available data.

Global Variables

{% include docs_variables_table.html scope=site.data.jekyll_variables.global %}

Site Variables

{% include docs_variables_table.html scope=site.data.jekyll_variables.site %}

Page Variables

{% include docs_variables_table.html scope=site.data.jekyll_variables.page %}

<div class="note"> <h5>ProTip™: Use Custom Front Matter</h5> <p> Any custom front matter that you specify will be available under <code>page</code>. For example, if you specify <code>custom_css: true</code> in a page’s front matter, that value will be available as <code>page.custom_css</code>. </p> <p> If you specify front matter in a layout, access that via <code>layout</code>. For example, if you specify <code>class: full_page</code> in a layout’s front matter, that value will be available as <code>layout.class</code> in the layout and its parents. </p> </div>
