Get Content Tag

It gets content from other entries! Specify a URI or ID and fetch all the data attached to it.

Overview

This tag lets you fetch data from other entries. It's useful if you need to hard-code some dynamic content in your template.

Hot Tip!

If you're using a fieldtype like entries to select which entries you'd like to render, then you don't even need this tag. You can loop over the selections like this:

{{ your_entries_field }}
{{ title }}, {{ url }}, {{ whatever }}
{{ /your_entries_field }}
```

For example, you might want to output some company information from your home page:

{{ get_content from="/about/company" }}
{{ staff }}
<div class="w-1/3">
<img src="{{ headshot }}" alt="{{ name }}">
<p>{{ name }}, {{ job_title }}</p>
</div>
{{ /staff }}
{{ /get_content }}

Shorthand

You may also use a shorthand syntax, where the second tag argument refers to a variable that contains a URI or ID.

---
related_by_uri: /about
related_by_id: 123-321-abc-defg123
---
{{ get_content:related_by_uri }}
{{ title }}
{{ /get_content:related_by_uri }}
 
{{ get_content:related_by_id }}
{{ title }}
{{ /get_content:related_by_id }}
