sites:\n\n````markdown\n# Jekyll Liquid Template Escaping\n\n## Problem: Liquid Syntax in Code Blocks\n\nWithout proper escaping, this breaks:\n\n```liquid\n{% for post in site.posts %}\n  {{ post.title }}\n{% endfor %}\n```\n\n## Solution: Raw Tags\n\nUse raw tags to prevent Liquid processing:\n\n```liquid\n{% for post in site.posts %}\n  <article>\n    <h1>{{ post.title }}</h1>\n    <time>{{ post.date | date: "%B %d, %Y" }}</time>\n    <div>{{ post.content }}</div>\n  </article>\n{% endfor %}\n```\n\n## Complex Example: Jekyll Configuration\n\n```yaml\n# _config.yml\nplugins:\n  - jekyll-feed\n  - jekyll-sitemap\n\ncollections:\n  guides:\n    output: true\n    permalink: /:collection/:name/\n\ndefaults:\n  - scope:\n      path: ""\n      type: "posts"\n    values:\n
