Liquid code being displayed in related-posts.html about jekyll-theme-chirpy HOT 7 OPEN

Another, perhaps better solution, is to look for a 'description' field in the post Front Matter. If it does not exist, carry on as usual, if it does exist however, use it in the related-posts (Further Reading) sections, and also in the descriptive blurb in the home page.

So the code might go from this:

                {% include no-linenos.html content=post.content %}
                {{ content | markdownify | strip_html | truncate: 200 | escape }}

to this:

                (% if post.description %}
                       {{ post.description | markdownify | strip_html | truncate: 200 | escape }}
                {% else %}
                       {% include no-linenos.html content=post.content %}
                       {{ content | markdownify | strip_html | truncate: 200 | escape }}
                {% endif %}

I think it's a great feature to have a description field in the front matter, as it can help work around this problem as well as #1516.

I would like to have this feature for my posts as well, to have control over the post description that appears in multiple places. I will work on it.

P.S. The originally reported issue should be fixed separately and I see no proper way to handle it so far.
