Hi Kyle

What version of the blog package did you install?

And do you have any idea what the XSLT file rendering the dates look like? Then please post the code :)

Starter Blog v 1.1 + umbraco 4.7

The Archive page calls this: 

<div umb_macroalias="BlogFullArchive" ismacro="true" onresizestart="return false;" umbversionid="a6562ec2-7de7-4b3f-9aea-d0862c5c0d87" umbpageid="1263" title="This is rendered content from macro" class="umbMacroHolder">

which, in turn, calls this XSLT. Do I misread? Does this XSLT hard-code the year?

Hi Kyle

I'm guessing that this package is using some kind of named datefolders perhaps?

I think this block is doing it...

In this code...

    <li>
      <a href="{umbraco.library:NiceUrl(@id)}">
        <xsl:value-of select="@nodeName"/>
      </a>
      <br/>
      <small>
        Posted: <xsl:value-of select="umbraco.library:LongDate(PostDate)"/>
        By: <xsl:value-of select="@writerName"/>
      </small>
    </li>

You write out the nodeName, which I suppose is "January" for some obscure reason? :-)

Hope this helps.

Here is the troublesome line:

<h4>
        <xsl:value-of select="umbraco.library:FormatDateTime( concat('01-', @nodeName , '-2010'), 'MMMM' )"/>
<h4>

Look at the screen shots. The months are correct in the editor/rendered view, but not on the actual page. Odd, no?

Argh; any other ideas?

January is coming from the 01 part of the string - test this by changing it to 02 so you need to alter the string

Change this:

<h4>
<xsl:value-of select="umbraco.library:FormatDateTime( concat('01-', @nodeName , '-2010'), 'MMMM' )"/>
<h4>

To:

<h4>
<xsl:value-of select="umbraco.library:FormatDateTime( concat(@nodeName, '-', '01', '-2010'), 'MMMM' )"/>
<h4>

The correct xslt line of code in "umbBlogFullArchive.xslt" is as follows:

<h4>
<xsl:value-of select="umbraco.library:FormatDateTime( concat(@nodeName,'-01' ,'-2010'), 'MMMM' )"/>

</h4

The above change shows the correct month on the archive page on the website, but the January month shows up in the content archive page in edit mode.  Not sure of what is going on.

is working on a reply...
