Date Not Displayed Correctly

[cptn-cosmo]

Original Report

Instead of the correct date the title of the post gets displayed like this: %05.%07.%16 test post .I have added the c::set('tidy', true); to the config.php. You can see the article page here: http://dawnson.is/blog/test-post

Analysis

Kirby-Blog assumes strftime for date output instead of Kirby's date default. This causes dates to rendered erroneous on standard installations.

Workaround

Add...

c::set('date.handler','strftime');

... to your config.php file.

Potential Drawbacks

Other date output might break because the date default is assumed.

Expected Time of Fix

I have created a test post with this content: https://www.dropbox.com/s/we6n7iw8fykpe0h/Screenshot%202016-07-06%2010.57.09.png?dl=0

It is the only post in the blog.

The server is using apache and php7 and i have the mamcached setting enabled in the config.php

Please let me know if you need any additional information.

Sorry. My new Ad Blocker did cut out all details you provided. Will look into this soon.

Oh! Because Kirby's default to use PHP date() instead of the superior strftime() (supporting local formats) you might fix this by adding another...

c::set('date.handler','strftime');

... to your config for now. I will make Kirby-Blog automatically adapts to this setting of that later on.

Nota bene; because date is the default, this workaround might break other date output. Therefore I try to do my best to fix this as soon as possible.

Dear @yaccin. I just fixed that bug. Blog should now output dates and times correctly regardless of date.handler settings. Have fun, Moritz
