+### Changing the layout
+
+[:octicons-tag-24: insiders-4.37.0][Insiders] ·
+:octicons-beaker-24: Experimental
+
+If you want to use a different layout for a single page (e.g. your landing
+page), you can use the `social` front matter property together with the
+[`cards_layout`](#+social.cards_layout) key, exactly as in `mkdocs.yml`:
+
+``` yaml
+---
+social:
+  cards_layout: custom
+---
+
+# Headline
+...
+```
+
+You can apply those changes for entire subtrees of your documentation, e.g.,
+to generate different social cards for your blog and API reference, by using
+the [built-in meta plugin].
+
+  [built-in meta plugin]: ../reference/index.md#built-in-meta-plugin
+
+### Parametrizing the layout
+
+[:octicons-tag-24: insiders-4.37.0][Insiders] ·
+:octicons-beaker-24: Experimental
+
+Besides changing the entire layout, you can override all options that a layout
+exposes. This means you can parametrize social cards with custom front matter
+properties, such as `tags`, `date`, `author` or anything you can think of.
+Simply define [`cards_layout_options`](#+social.cards_layout_options):
+
+``` yaml
+---
+social:
+  cards_layout_options:
+    background_color: blue # Change background color
+    background_image: null # Remove background image
+---
+
+# Headline
+...
+```
+
+You can apply those changes for entire subtrees of your documentation, e.g.,
+to generate different social cards for your blog and API reference, by using
+the [built-in meta plugin].
+
+### Disabling social cards
+
+[:octicons-tag-24: insiders-4.37.0][Insiders] ·
+:octicons-beaker-24: Experimental
+
+If you wish to disable social cards for a page, simply add the following to the
+front matter of the Markdown document:
+
+``` yaml
+---
+social:
+  cards: false
+---
+
+# Headline
+...
+```
