There was a problem hiding this comment.
The job failed due to a Liquid syntax error at line 30 of _pages/people/anjani-mirchandani.md:
Liquid syntax error (line 30): Tag '{%' was not properly terminated
Solution:
Inspect line 30:
{% assign member = site.data.team_members | where: "id", page.id | first %}It is correct except for its surrounding RTF encoding and escaped characters (e.g., \{% instead of {%). The file appears to contain raw RTF, which is not valid for Markdown or Jekyll page processing.
To fix:
- Remove all RTF syntax from the file—ensure only Markdown and Liquid are present.
- Make sure all Liquid tags are unescaped (e.g., use
{% ... %}instead of\{% ... %\}). - Clean up metadata (frontmatter) at the top; ensure there are no stray characters or encoding artifacts.
Here’s a corrected snippet:

<div style="display: flex; align-items: center; gap: 2rem;flex-wrap: wrap;">
<img src="{{ site.baseurl }}/images/teampic/{{ page.photo }}" class="rounded-circle" style="width:160px;height:160px;object-fit:cover;border:3px solid #eee;" alt="{{ page.title }}">

<!-- ... -->

</div>After you remove the RTF and escaped Liquid tags, the build should succeed.
Updated the member page for Anjani Mirchandani to use YAML front matter format and improved the layout.
