With custom site properties, you can define and store frequently occurring content on
your site. For example, you can store your address and phone number as a custom property so
that it can be reused by anyone who is editing your site. You can apply stored properties to
pages, headers and footers, and widgets quickly by using expression language
syntax.

To use custom properties in your website, you must:
- Define the custom property. You complete this task from Custom
Properties within Site Configuration.
- Use expression language syntax to replace the current
definitions for these properties within your Cascading Style Sheets or custom
code blocks.
After you create a new property and specify its value and type, you can access the
property in custom code or content blocks by using expressions. Expressions are
placeholders for data that will be replaced with the custom property when the page
loads.
