I am having trouble with a shopify liquid for loop in Jekyll

The below code is slightly different than what is rendered, I haven’t pushed my changes yet. So keep that in mind.

It is supposed to

• iterate through the YAML data file.
• place a link everywhere that is required of it.

However, currently, it is only placing the last element seen by the for loop everywhere I want a link.

I have a YAML file with two links, and instead of placing the link in the block associated with its PID, it is placing the second link in all link locations.

I am using REGEX to parse, so anywhere in the YAML file that is aaaa a link gets replaced at that location. That works, it just doesn’t place the right link.

Now the even more confusing part is that the first console.log console.log(faqLink{{ faq_link_pid }}); prints all of the links, correctly and in the order, they are in the file.
