I'm having trouble customizing the variable
org-export-html-date-format-string. Before I tried to customize it, I
would get the date in the postamble when I exported to html:
<p class="date">Created: 2013-05-21 Tue 12:44</p>
The original string for the variable is: %Y-%m-%dT%R%z
I don't want this string, so I changed it to %F%T%Z which didn't give
any date when I exported. So I changed the string to %Y-%m-%d and still
had no date after export. Changing back to the default string doesn't
work either.
This seems like a bug. Here is what is in my init.el after customization:
'(org-export-html-date-format-string "%Y-%m-%dT%R%z")
'(org-html-postamble t)
'(org-html-postamble-format (quote (("en" "<p class=\"author\">Author:
%a </p> <p class=\"date\">Date: %d</p> <p class=\"creator\">%c</p>"))))
Here is the html of the postamble after export:
<div id="postamble" class="status">
<p class="author">Author: Scott P. Randby </p>
<p class="date">Date: </p>
<p class="creator"><a
href="http://www.gnu.org/software/emacs/";>Emacs</a> 24.2.1 (<a
href="http://orgmode.org";>Org</a> mode 8.0.3)</p>
</div>
How do I get the date variable to work?
