Landing Page

Landing pages sometimes require header and footer content that is not found on other project pages. For this reason, the layout: landing template will optionally inject {% include %} fragments from the _include/headers and _include/footers directories into the landing page’s <header> and <footer> elements respectively if they are named in the pages front matter.

sections:
  headers:
    - navigation.html
  footers:
    - copyright.html
    - social-media.html

This is a small workaround for the lack of shortcode found within the set of jekyll plugins found within GitHub Pages.
