Should date formatting work in extension web template?

Issues
1

I’m trying to use the Web Template under the Extensions settings menu on macOS.

I was hoping I could use something like:

---
date: [[date|%Y-%m-%d]]
title: [[title]]
source: [[url]]
---

to save something like

---
date: 2021-12-07
title: The Best Title
source: https://example.com
---

However when running the share extension from Safari I’m getting the following output (date template tag doesn’t render anything with or without the | and strftime syntax):

---
date: 
title: The Best Title
source: https://example.com
---

Thanks in advance for any help on this!

Hi, @bstephtk421 have you found the solution to this problem? I am currently facing the same problem.

Those examples above should work. [[date]] tags are available when capturing from Safari. Just tested and they worked for me on both iOS and Mac.

What template are you using in Web Capture?
