HubL Supported Tags

Last updated:

This page is a comprehensive reference guide of the syntax and the available parameters for all HubL tags.  Each tag type below contains a sample of the basic syntax, as well as an example with parameters and code output.

Most of the tags in this page have default module equivalents. Modules can be used within dnd_area and flexible columns, making them more powerful and user friendly than the tags you see here.

Blog comments

A blog comments tag renders the comments embed code on a blog template. This Javascript embed code loads the comments form and comments, based upon your configuration in Content Settings.

Blog Comment Form module:
{% blog_comments "blog_comments" overrideable=False, label='Blog Comments' %}

Blog Comment Count module:
{% blog_comments "blog_comments" %}

Blog Comment listing for specific blog:
{% blog_comments "default_blog_comments" select_blog='359485112' %}
ParameterTypeDescription Default
limit
Integer

Sets maximum number of comments.

 5000
select_blog
'default' or blog ID

Specifies which blog is connected to the comments embed. This parameter accepts arguments of either 'default' or a blog ID (available in the URL of the Blog dashboard). If want to use your default blog, this parameter is unnecessary.

 default
skip_css
Boolean

Setting this option to True will stop the blog comments CSS from loading. 

 false

Blog content

While drag and drop layouts include a blog content module, these modules are not created with a single tag. They instead use conditional logic to define how a blog post and a blog listing should render. You can learn more about coding blog templates here.

Blog related posts

Adds a listing of blog posts based off of a set of parameters shared by posts across blogs. Posts are selected based off of their relevance to the set parameters. For an example usage of the optional callback parameter, see creating a related blog post listing with the blog related posts HubL tag.

Please note this tag does not generate a page/post level editable module, it is entirely configured with HubL.

{% related_blog_posts %}
{% related_blog_posts limit=2, blog_ids="1,2", tags="Sales enablement,Marketing", blog_authors="John Smith,Frank Smith", path_prefixes="/business-blog", start_date="2018-04-10", end_date="2018-04-10", blog_post_override="2783035366" %}
ParameterTypeDescription Default
blog_ids
Integer

The ID(s) of blog(s) to include posts from. Omit this parameter to use the default blog.
blog_post_ids
String

The ID(s) of a blog posts to use when finding relevant blog posts to list (comma separated). This parameter should only be used when the widget is appearing on pages, as on blog posts, it will default to the post the widget is appearing on.
blog_post_override
String

The ID(s) of a blog posts which should always show up in the returned listing, despite all other parameter values and filters (comma separated).
limit
Integer

 The max number of blog posts to list.

 3
tags
String

The tag(s) that should be used to determine if a post is relevant (comma separated). If a blog post has one of these tags or a similar tag, the post’s relevancy is increased, improving its ranking in the listing.
start_date
datetime

Earliest published date.
end_date
datetime

Latest published date.
blog_authors
String

 The name(s) of authors to include posts from (comma separated).
path_prefixes
String

URL paths or subdirectories to include posts from (comma separated). If a blog post has a similar prefix in its path, the post’s relevancy is increased, improving its ranking in the listing.
callback
String

The name of a javascript function to render returned blog posts. The function is passed an array of blog post objects to format. If neither the callback, or post_formatter parameters are specified, the tag will generate HTML in a default format.

 none
post_formatter
String

The name of a custom macro to render returned blog posts. The macro is passed three parameters which are the blogs blog post object to format, the count in the iteration of blog posts, and the total count of blog posts in the results. If not specified or set to “default”, the built-in formatter will be used to format each post.

 default
allow_any_language
String

When set to false, only posts in the same language as the page the tag is used on will appear. When the parameter is set to true, the language restriction is ignored and all related posts are pulled in regardless of the page language. 

 False

We strongly recommend using the callback parameter instead of post_formatter to improve page loading speed.

Blog social sharing

Blog social sharing renders share counters on your blog posts (if enabled in Content Settings).

{% blog_social_sharing "blog_social_sharing" %}
{% blog_social_sharing "blog_social_sharing" select_blog='359485112' %}
ParameterTypeDescription Default
select_blog
'default' or blog ID

Species which blog is connected to the share counters. This parameter accepts arguments of either 'default' or a blog ID (available in the URL of the Blog dashboard). If you want to use your default blog, this parameter is unnecessary.

 default
downgrade_shared_url
Boolean

Use HTTP in the url sent to the social media networks. Used to preserve counts when upgrading domains to HTTPS only.

 false

Blog subscription

A blog subscription tag renders the blog subscriber form for a particular blog. This form is automatically created whenever a blog is created in Content Settings, and there is always one subscription form per blog. Please note that the subscribe form's fields are configured within the Forms editor UI.

{% blog_subscribe "blog_subscribe" %}
{% blog_subscribe "subscribe_designers_blog" select_blog='default', title='Subscribe to the Designers Blog', response_message='Thanks for Subscribing!', label='Blog Email Subscription', overrideable=False %}
ParameterTypeDescription Default
select_blog
'default' or blog ID

Selects which blog subscription form to render. This parameter accepts arguments of either 'default' or a blog ID (available in the URL of the Blog dashboard). If want to use your default blog, this parameter is unnecessary.

 default
title
String

Defines text in an h3 tag title above the subscribe form.

 "Subscribe Here!"
no_title
Boolean

If True, the h3 tag above the title is removed.

 false
response_message
String

Defines the inline thank-you message that is rendered when a user submits a form. Supports HTML.

 "Thanks for Subscribing!"
edit_form_link
String

This parameter generates a link that allows users to click through to the corresponding Form editor screen. This option will only show in the editor UI if the modules has the parameter overrideable=True. Here is an example where HubID and form ID would be replaced with the information from the URL of your default blog subscriber form: edit_form_link=' <ul>\n <li><a href="/forms/HubID/FormID/edit/" target="_blank">Default Blog</a></li> \n</ul> '. \n drops the code onto a new line.

Boolean

A boolean tag creates a checkbox in the UI that prints "true" or "false." In addition to printing the value, this module is useful for defining conditional template logic, when combined with the parameter export_to_template_context. 

{% boolean "boolean" %}
{% boolean "nav_toggle" label='Hide navigation', value=False, no_wrapper=True %}
ParameterTypeDescription Default
value
Boolean

Determines whether the checkbox is checked or unchecked.

 False

Choice

A choice tag creates a dropdown in the content editor UI that prints the value selected by the user. Choice tags are great for giving your users a preset set of options, such as printing the type of page as a page header.

In addition to printing the choice value, this tag is useful for defining conditional template logic, when combined with the parameter export_to_template_context. 

{% choice "choice" %}
{% choice "type_of_page" label='Choose the type of page', value='About', choices='About, Careers, Contact, Store' %}
ParameterTypeDescription
value
Boolean

The default field value for the dropdown

choices
Sequence

A comma-separated list of values, or list of value-label pairs. The syntax for value label pairs is as follows: choices='[[\"value1\", \"Label 1\"], [\"value2\", \"Label 2\"]]'. The editor will display the label, while it will print the value to the page.

Color

The color tag generates a color picker in the page editor UI that prints a HEX color value to a template. Please note that this module can only be used in templates, not CSS files. If using this tag in a <style> or inline CSS, you will want to use the no_wrapper=True parameter to remove the wrapper <span> wrapper.

{% color "color" %}
{% color "my_color_picker" label='Choose a color', color='#000000', no_wrapper=True %}
ParameterTypeDescription
color
String

A default HEX color value for the color picker

CTA

A Call to Action or CTA tag allows users to add a HubSpot Call to Action button to a predefined area of a page.

{% cta "cta" %}
{% cta "my_cta" label='Select a CTA', guid='ccd39b7c-ae18-4c4e-98ee-547069bfbc5b', image_src='https://no-cache.hubspot.com/cta/default/53/c7335b66-a0d4-4d19-82eb-75e1626d02d0.png' %}
ParameterTypeDescription
embed_code
String

The embed code for the CTA. \n differentiates line breaks.

full_html
String

The embed code for the CTA (Same as embed_code). \n differentiates line breaks.

image_src
String

Image src url that defines the preview image in the content editor.

image_editor
String

Markup for the image editor preview

guid
String

The unique ID number of the CTA. This ID number is available in the URL of the Details screen of a particular CTA. This parameter is used to choose which CTA to display by default.

image_html
String

CTA image HTML without the CTA script.*

image_email
String

Email-friendly version of the CTA code.*

*While these parameters are included here for the sake of being comprehensive, the code generated by HubSpot to populate them is very specific. If you need a default CTA selected, rather than trying to develop the CTA parameters from scratch, it is recommended that set up the CTA on a template layout, and then clone to file. You can then copy the HubL CTA module of the CTA with all parameters set correctly for you.

There is also a CTA function that generates a CTA from the ID.

Custom HTML

A custom HTML module allows users to enter raw HTML into the content editor. If you need to add extensive default HTML to the tag, you may want to use block syntax.

{% raw_html "raw_html" %}
{% raw_html "my_custom_html_module" label="Enter HTML here" value='<div>My HTML Block</div>' %}


Block Syntax Example:

{% widget_block raw_html "my_custom_html_module" overrideable=True, label='My custom HTML module'  %}
        {% widget_attribute "value" %}
            <div>Default HTML block</div>
        {% end_widget_attribute %}
{% end_widget_block %}
ParameterTypeDescription
value
String

Sets the default content HTML of the module.

Custom modules

Custom Modules allow HubSpot designers to create a custom group of editable content objects to be used across templates and pages on HubSpot’s CMS, while still allowing marketers to control the specific content appearing within those modules on a page-by-page basis. You can learn more about custom modules and their simplified HubL syntax, here.

Custom modules must be built in the Custom Module editor, but they can be included into coded templates and HubL modules. You will see a 'Usage Snippet' in the right sidebar of the Custom Module editor under 'Template Usage'.

Custom modules require the ID of the module as a string as well as a path parameter in order to specify which module to load. The usage snippet will also include a label parameter. See the syntax below:

{% module "module_15677217712485" path="/Custom/Test custom module"  %}
{% module "module_25642219712432" path="/Assets/Custom calendar module" label="Custom calendar module" %}
ParameterTypeDescription
module_id
String

The id of the module to render.

path
String

The path of the module to render. Include leading slash for absolute path, otherwise path is relative to template. Reference HubSpot default modules with paths corresponding to their HubL tags such as @hubspot/rich_text, @hubspot/linked_image, etc.

Editor placeholders

When building a module, you can add either default content  to your fields or an editor_placeholder HubL tag to the HTML + HubL file to render placeholder content. This tag renders the module's icon and name as empty placeholders in the editor.

module-placeholder-content0

This tag can be useful when the module doesn't have or need default content, or to streamline module building.

To add a placeholder to a custom module, you can add an if statement to the HTML + HubL file to render the placeholder when there's no content selected. For example:

HubL 
{% if module.cta_field.name %}
   {% cta guid="{{ module.cta_field }}" %}
{% elif is_in_editor %}
  {% editor_placeholder %}
{% endif %}

While you cannot edit the placeholder's styling, you can add the following properties to the module's meta.json file to customize its content:

ParameterTypeDescription
show_module_icon
Boolean

Whether to display the module's icon.

title
String

The title that appears in the placeholder.

description
String

The description that appears in the placeholder.

For example, your meta.json file might look like the following:

JSON 
// Module meta.json
{
  "global" : false,
  "host_template_types" : [ "PAGE" ],
  "module_id" : 62170380654,
  "is_available_for_new_content" : true,
  "placeholder": {
    "show_module_icon": true,
    "title": "Call to action",
    "description": "Select a CTA"
  }
}

Email backup unsubscribe

The backup unsubscribe tag renders for email recipients, if HubSpot is unable to determine their email address, when that recipient tries to unsubscribe. This tag renders a form for the contact to enter his or her email address to unsubscribe from email communications. It should be used on an Unsubscribe Backup system template.

{% email_simple_subscription "email_simple_subscription" %}
{% email_simple_subscription "email_simple_subscription" header='Email Unsubscribe', input_help_text='Your email address:', input_placeholder='email@example.com', button_text='Unsubscribe', label='Backup Unsubscribe' %}

Flexible column

Flexible columns are vertical columns in a template that allow the end user to insert and remove a variety of modules of their choosing into the template, while editing in the content editor. When coding a flexible column with HubL, you can choose to wrap other HubL modules to make them appear in the flexible column by default. The sample code below shows the basic syntax and a sample flexible column with a rich-text and form module contained as default content. Please note that flexible columns can only be added to page templates, not blog or email templates.

{% widget_container "my_flexible_column" %}
    {% module "rich_text" path="@hubspot/rich_text" %}
    {% module "linked_image" path="@hubspot/linked_image" %}
{% end_widget_container %}

Modules cannot contain flexible columns, but they can contain repeatable fields and groups. This way you can create modules like carousels which contain slides that can be re-arranged, added, removed etc.
