Inspect `date` Front Matter variable for pages #267

Closed ArthurZey closed 3 years ago

ArthurZey commented 4 years ago

At present, I understand that the date value for the <lastmod> tag is inherited from the date Front Matter variable for posts, but the last_modified_at Front Matter variable for pages.

Is it possible to also look at the date Front Matter variable for pages as a fallback for those pages that don't have the last_modified_at variable set?

(My usecase is that I try to have generic abstractions across both pages and posts, so I have already populated all my pages with a date Front Matter variable and leverage that in scripts.)

I guess it's hard for me to determine whether 80% of users would find this useful, but speaking from personal experience working in technology, I think that generic solutions tend to be really valuable, where all users can get the same abstraction layer and have a cleaner separation of concerns, without everybody having to implement special case-handling logic. So I guess it really depends on how many users have a need to treat posts and pages with some amount of equivalence.
