P1 Badge Fix invalid first.title filter usage

Liquid treats the segment after | as a filter name, so first.title is parsed as an unknown filter and Jekyll will fail to render this template for any build that reaches it. To safely extract the home page title, you need to either assign the page first and read its title (e.g., {% assign about_page = ... | first %} then about_page.title) or use | map: "title" | first, otherwise the build breaks with “Unknown filter 'first.title'”.
