I am attempting to loop over the posts for a site and I am getting a Liquid syntax error in code that used to work. Here is the code in question:
layout: page
title: “Programming Renaissance - Blogs”
author: “Programming Renaissance generated”
date: 2024-03-25
{% comment %}
This page produces a block of HTML for every post recorded in Jekyll, including drafts if enabled. This provides an index to the currently available posts on this site.
{% endcomment %}
Latest Posts
-
{% for post in site.posts %}
-
{{ post.title }} if {% post.author %} - Author: {{ post.author }} {% endif%}
{{ post.excerpt }}
{% endfor %}
and here is the output from Jekyll:
(PRV) jonathan@jfgdev:/PR/website$ bundle exec jekyll serve --drafts
Configuration file: /mnt/ProgrammingRenaissance/website/_config.yml

Here is my _config,yml
Welcome to Jekyll!
This config file is meant for settings that affect your whole blog, values
which you are expected to set up once and rarely edit after that. If you find
yourself editing this file very often, consider using Jekyll’s data files
feature for the data you need to update frequently.
For technical reasons, this file is NOT reloaded automatically when you use
‘bundle exec jekyll serve’. If you change this file, please restart the server process.
If you need help with YAML syntax, here are some quick references for you:

Site settings
These are used to personalize your new site. If you look in the HTML files,
you will see them accessed via {{ site.title }}, {{ site.email }}, and so on.
You can create any custom variable you would like, and they will be accessible
in the templates via {{ site.myvariable }}.
