I’m converting posts from Jekyll to Hugo. I wrote a script that ensures all the meta data dates are in the format YYYY-MM-DDTHH:MM-05:00. (Some were had just YYYY-MM-DD, other had the time too, and some were enclosed in quotes, some were not.) I’ve created new site and added the Strange Case theme.…

I haven’t published the site, so I don’t have a dev environment versus a production one. I’m trying to migrate from Jekyll, and I don’t understand why the post date isn’t consistently handled.

You probably have pages without dates set. This is just a guess, however. It would be easier to help if we could see your code in a repo somewhere.

All of the posts have dates. All of the dates are complete. https://gist.github.com/zanshin/f2750344e028be5279d38664b1abbbf5 output.txt [mark:~/code/hugo/strangecase] $ find content/posts/ -type f | wc -l 276 [mark:~/code/hugo/strangecase] $ l total 40K drwxrwxr-x 9 mark users 4.0K Sep 27 …

But can’t you provide the repo…? Huh, curiously one of the last commits on the theme was: “Further attempt to fix date format issue”. But the only issue I see is that it doesn’t seem to be using the .Site.Params.DateFormat anymore, so that config param is useless.

Taking this as an example, you are missing :ss (seconds) in the time component. Try the date as 2020-01-19T08:03:00-05:00 instead.

I have refactored my script and now all the dates are properly formatted for Go / Hugo. The date front matter on this site is a mismash of formats. Most have date and time. None of the times have seconds. Quite a few dates had either a single digit month or single digit day value. My script now pro…
