site.content_objects.[:plural_content_type_name]
Returns all Abstract Content Objects for the given content type name in a collection.
E.g., when you have a content type with the (plural) name 'categories', site.content_objects.categories returns a collection object with all categories in it.
site.elements.[:plural_content_type_name]
Returns all Elements for the given content type name in a collection.
E.g., when you have a content type with the (plural) name ‘forms', site.elements.formsreturns a collection object with all 'Form’ elements in it.
You can also get all elements of a site in a collection: site.elements.all
site.[:plural_post_type_name]
Returns a collection with all posts (objects with the specified post type). E.g. {{ site.pages }} returns a collection with all posts with the content type ‘page’.
site.languages
Returns an array of objects representing the available languages for the site.

<a href="{{ language.url }}">{{ language.name }}</a>
{% endfor %}
