Unable to define .Title variable?

support
1

Hello,

I am trying to define a page .Title for my index.html, by ways of front matter in the content/_index.md file. However, when I display the title via:

<title>{{ block "title" . }}{{ .Site.Title }} {{ with .Title }} | {{ . }}{{ end }}{{ end }}</title>

I end up with a result of SiteTitle | SiteTitle rather than Title | SiteTitle.

Here is my content/_index.md:

{
"title": "Home"
}

Why is this happening?

Thanks.
