Common Template
Common content that belongs on multiple pages should be situated in a template which should be shared globally. An example of would be a footer, the bottom of the page content that persists across pages. Looking at Tera, the template engine for Zola, the include feature within a template offers the capability to reference other templates.
In other template languages, a shared template is also known as a partial.
Here is an index template that references a shared footer.html template
on the bottom of the 'main' container:
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html lang="en">
<head>
...
</body>
<div id="main">
<div class="section footer">
{% include "footer.html" %}
</div>
</div>
</body>
</html>
Within the templates/footer.html file is the footer template:
<p>
<span>
Copyright © {{ now() | date(format="%Y") }}
Github.</a>
</span>
</p>
The footer contains a copyright notice which uses the current year.
