Imported Wordpress posts stopping page load once it gets to the template

I have imported about 50 posts from a Wordpress site using the perch importer. They all show up in the perch dashboard fine, and when I changed the post template to ckeditor, they retained the formatting and everything. Looks perfect on the back end.

When I use on of the perch functions to show any information on the page, the html gets to the function, and then the page stops loading any element after, and no posts show up. I'll use the index as an example:

<?php include('../perch/runtime.php'); ?>
<?php perch_layout('head'); ?>

            <h1>Blog</h1>

            <?php perch_blog_recent_posts(10); ?>

            <p><a href="archive.php">More posts</a></p>

<?php perch_layout('footer'); ?>

Up to the blog heading loads fine, and then nothing. I turned on debugging, and placing it anywhere above perch_blog_recent_posts shows a result, but after it shows nothing.

Here is the post_in_list.html (it is pretty much default I think)

<perch:before>
  <ul class="blog--list">
</perch:before>

  <li class="blog--card bg-dark-grey text-white pad">

    <div class="blog--card-image" style="background-image:url('<perch:blog id="image" type="image" crop="false" />" alt="<perch:blog id="postTitle" />'(" />
    </div>

    <div class="blog--card-content">

      <h2 class="blog--card-heading"><perch:blog id="postTitle" /></h2>
      <p class="blog--card-author"><perch:blog id="authorGivenName" type="text" label="Given name" order="1" />  <perch:blog id="authorFamilyName" type="text" label="Given name" order="2" /></p>
      <p class="blog--card-date"><perch:blog id="postDateTime" format="%d %B %Y" /></p>
      <div class="blog--card-summary">
        <perch:blog id="excerpt" type="textarea" textile="true" words="25" append="..."  />
      </div>
      <div class="blog--card-button">
        <a href="<perch:blog id="postURL" />" rel="bookmark" class="blog--card-title">
          <button class="button button--outline-yellow text-whites">Read More</button>
        </a>
      </div>
    </div>

  </li>

<perch:after>
  </ul>
    <perch:if exists="paging">
        <div class="paging">
            Page <perch:blog id="current_page" /> of <perch:blog id="number_of_pages" />
            <perch:blog id="page_links" encode="false" />
            <perch:if exists="not_first_page">
                <a href="<perch:blog id="prev_url" encode="false" />">Previous</a>
            </perch:if>
            <perch:if exists="not_last_page">
                <a href="<perch:blog id="next_url" encode="false" />">Next</a>
            </perch:if>
        </div>
    </perch:if>
</perch:after>

I haven't come across a way to debug templates that I am aware of.
