Templates & Layouts Variants

support
1

Hello,

I’m refactoring an existing site with 10 content types.
Each of the single.html pages within a content layout sometimes has code duplication similar to the other template files.

In total, there are 5 page layouts, some with variants, that would be needed for my 10 content types.

I understand the Hugo template hierarchy lookup.

It would be nice to have 5 “base” page layouts and variants for my content to inherit from.
Would I just put these 5 “base” page layouts in the _default directory and then inherit from them in my content pages as needed?

Is there a hugo friendly way to make this work how I want?

Have you looked at

and

?

It seems to me that a combination of those is what you need.
