Using Liquid tags in a Jekyll page not working
Question
I am attempting to setup a small blog using Jekyll. My work so far is as follows.
- Setup a Github pages repository
- Cloned the repo locally
- Installed Ruby vs 2 and the sdk (windows)
- Installed jekyll
- 'serve' the local website.
- Validated that I could view my website localhost:4000
Everything worked fine however the liquid syntax is not working as expected. All syntax is output as plane text. I am not sure how to continue. This error happens both locally as well as on my github hosted page.
Here is my index.html file
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html lang="en-us">
<head>
{% include meta %}{{ site.time | date_to_xmlschema }}
</head>
<body>
{% include header.html %}
{% include header.html %}
{% include header.html %}
{% foo %}
{{ foo }}
<section class="main-content">
{% include footer.html %}
</section>
{% include scripts.html %}
</body>
</html>
My _config.yml has foo defined. =(

If you want Jekyll to process your page, you must add a Front matter to your page ( see dedicated page in Jekyll documentation ).
The minimum front matter is an empty one. That means that your page will use default configuration for layout, etc ..

# this is an empty front matter
