Is generating something like this:

<url>
<loc>
https://example.com/blog/how-to-fix-this
</loc>
<lastmod>2024-01-08T00:00:00</lastmod>
<changefreq>monthly</changefreq>
<priority>0.8</priority>
</url>

I use nuxt-content and set:

sitemap:
  loc: /blog/how-to-fix-this
  lastmod: 2024-01-08
  changefreq: monthly
  priority: 0.8

The format is correct, but the module then changes it.

I have the same issue, the module transforms the last mod date to an invalid format.

These are the 2 valid formats according to Google:

• 2005-02-21
• 2005-02-21T18:00:15+00:00

2005-02-21T18:00:15 is an invalid date, it needs the timezone to be valid.
