Title Body

I want to use the same {% block %} twice in the same django template. I want this block to appear more than once in my base template: # base.html <html> <head> <title>{% block title %}My Cool Website{% endblock %}</title> </head> <body> <h1>{% block title %}My Cool Website{% endblock %}</h1> </body> </html> And then extend it: # blog.html {% extends 'base.html' %} {% block title %}My Blog{% endblock %} # pictures.html {% extends 'base.html' %} {% block title %}My Pictures{% endblock %} # cats.html {% extends 'base.html' %} {% block title %}My Cats{% endblock %} I will get an exception, as Django wants the block to appear only once: TemplateSyntaxError at / 'block' tag with name 'title' appears more than once A quick and dirty solution would be duplicating the block title into title1 and title2 : # blog.html {% extends 'base.html' %} {% block title1 %}My Blog{% endblock %} {% block title2 %}My Blog{% endblock %} But this is a violation of the DRY principle. It would be very difficult as I have a lot of inheriting templates, and also because I don't wanna go to hell ;-) Is there any trick or work-around to this problem? How can I repeat the same block in my template, without duplicating all the code?
