Orchard Core Liquid

Liquid templates use the .liquid extension and receive Orchard Core globals, shapes, filters, and tags.

{{ Site.SiteName }}
{{ Culture.Name }}
{{ User.Identity.Name }}
{{ Request.Path }}

Use Culture.Name for the current request culture; do not treat Site.Culture as the current UI culture.

Liquid Configuration and Slugs

The {% liquid %} tag is disabled by default in Orchard Core 3.0. Enable it only when the tenant requires nested Liquid source:

{
  "OrchardCore_Liquid": {
    "AllowLiquidTag": true
  }
}

The slugify filter transliterates Unicode text to an ASCII representation by default. Use the transliterate filter when transliteration is needed without slug normalization:

{{ "Crème brûlée" | slugify }}
{{ "Київ" | transliterate }}

The transliterate filter is provided by OrchardCore.Localization; enable that feature before using it in tenant templates.

Zones and Sections

zone is a block tag that adds its child content to a named layout zone. Use render_section to render a zone:

{% zone "Header" %}
  <span class="announcement">Welcome</span>
{% endzone %}

{% render_section "Header", required: false %}
{% render_section "Content", required: true %}

Shapes and Content Handles

{% shape "Menu", alias: "alias:main-menu" %}
{% contentitem alias: "alias:featured-article", display_type: "Summary" %}
{% contentitem id: "4j42fxryjcpqkkacmg6cwz3pr5" %}

An alias argument receives an Orchard content handle, including the alias: prefix. Render an already built shape with shape_render:

{{ Model.Content.HtmlBodyPart | shape_render }}

Content and Localized Text

{{ Model.ContentItem.DisplayText }}
{{ Model.ContentItem.Content.TitlePart.Title }}
{{ Model.ContentItem.Content.AutoroutePart.Path }}
{{ "Welcome to Orchard Core" | t }}
{{ "Hello {0}!" | t: User.Identity.Name }}

Use the t filter for localized UI text. Use normal Fluid control flow and Orchard filters for content:
