Hi, XML error: Created 2009-03-24 The pubdate REQUIRES a date, so e.g. `pubdate="2009-03-24T18:02:14Z"` > No, `pubdate="pubdate"`. It's a boolean attribute. applied && [[done]] > --[[Joey]] >> awesome, thanks for fixing my fix ;) --[[simonraven]] >>> This seems to be happening either still or again with version 3.20200202.3-1. I'm getting strings generated like >>> >>> Posted <time datetime="2007-12-06T05:00:00Z" pubdate="pubdate">Thu 06 Dec 2007 12:00:00 AM EST</time> >>> >>> which shows up as an error on https://validator.w3.org/ --Luke Schierer >>>> My reading of Joey's response, above, was that (according to the spec at the time), `pubdate="pubdate"` is what >>>> should be generated, *not* `pubdate="timestamp"`, and so what you are seeing is expected.
