[FR] Can't change the date archived format

[mathisgauthey]

I like to have a timeline of things. Hence I organised my YAML with these dates :

state: ARCHIVED
date_published: 2020-01-12 14:30:44
date_saved: 2023-06-07 08:29:42
date_read: 2023-06-07 08:53:33
date_archived: 2023-06-07T07:53:28.396Z

The issue is that there is no way to change the archived date format as of today.

Thanks in advance !

Hey @mathisgauthey, you could use this function formatDate in the front matter template to format archived date.

For example: Template:

state: {{{ state }}}
date_published: {{{ datePublished }}}
date_saved: {{{ dateSaved }}}
date_read: {{{ dateRead }}}
date_archived: {{#formatDate}}{{{ dateArchived }}},"yyyy-MM-dd HH:mm:ss"{{/formatDate}}

Hey there, after updating omnivore plugin, your solution works ! I'll use that. Thanks a lot o/

I keep the feature request open so that an option is added for non tech users.
