How to use variables at the page level?

Developer Support CMS Development

I have a template that I use for ~20 different pages. On each of these pages, there is a paragraph of shared content (global module) that I would like to customize, depending on the page used. Ex: replace {{ this_text }} with “page 1” or “page 2” or “page 3”, depending on the page where the module is used.

I am comfortable with using variables at the template level. Is there any way to do it at the page level?

Hi @wmflan39,

Global Module cannot be customization on every page level mode. if you want to change content on every page then you have to use a custom module instead of global module

Thanks

Thanks TRooInbound for the reply. I was afraid that might be the only way to do it.

Hi @wmflan39,

can I get you page URL for understanding better?

We have pages for each of ~20 heating processes (brazing, annealing, forging, soldering, etc.) offering application notes for each. Below that is a literature offer (global module ‘About Induction Heating’) I place on each of these ~20 pages. To avoid any ‘duplicate content’ concerns, I was thinking of a way to use a variable to insert the appropriate process name in the body of the paragraph, depending on the page the global module is used.

An example: Induction Melting

@wmflan39

Yes, you can use variables in global module

I’ve created demos for you,

create one template in HubSpot using the global module and publish 2 pages using this and change global module content successfully on this.

Like this,

place_code.PNG
place_code.PNG950×230 12.5 KB

Edit global module.PNG
Edit global module.PNG855×304 11.3 KB

this is the code you have to put in,

{% text "my_title" label='Enter a title', value='About Induction Heating', export_to_template_context=True %}
<h2>{{ widget_data.my_title.value }}</h2>

I’ve created this two links,
