How to override a site param with a section param?

I you define a param “myParam” in both site config and in /mysection/_index.md, then:

  • From the section listing template: .Param "myParam" will return the value from /mysection/_index.md
  • From a single page template inside /mysection: .Param "myParam" will return value from site config
  • If you want to, say, get the behaviour from the first example in the home page template, you can do `.Site.GetPage(“section”, “mysection”).Param “myParam”````

.Site.GetPage doesn’t do any caching at the moment, so if used too much, it may hurt performance (we will fix that)(you may also want to pull it out into a variable if you need more than one param), but the above should work.
