Overview

Snippets are reusable pieces of content that you'd want to manage from Sofa. Things like copyright notices, maybe even more complex things like navigations. When you create a snippet you need to provide a unique identifier. For our example we'll use 'copyright'. Then we can use this snippet in our layout like so:

<html>
  <body>
    {{ cms:markdown content }}
    <div class='footer'>
      {{ cms:snippet copyright }}
    </div>
  </body>
</html>

If you ever need to access snippet content from inside your app you can use this helper: <%= cms_snippet_content('copyright') %>. Sometimes you need to provide the site (if you have more than one): <%= cms_snippet_content('copyright', @cms_site) %>
