I have a field that I would like to contain just a date (with no specific time). When I configure the datetime widget with sensible options for a date-only field, dates are stored properly in the saved markdown, but when I load those dates in the UI, I see the date before. This is happening because the DateTime component from the react-datetime library uses local timezones. It loads the date as the start of day UTC and then converts to the local timezone, which is going to be the previous day in any timezone with a negative UTC offset, including all of the Americas. This change adds a pickerUtc option to the datetime widget so that users can specify when they would like the datetime picker to display times in UTC rather than in the local timezone. By setting this new option to true on date-only fields, users can ensure that everyone sees the same date in the picker regardless of local timezones.
Docs coming soon!
Netlify CMS was recently converted from a single npm package to a "monorepo" of over 20 packages. That's over 20 Readme's! We haven't created one for this package yet, but we will soon.
In the meantime, you can:
- Check out the main readme or the documentation site for more info.
- Reach out to the community chat if you need help.
- Help out and write the readme yourself!
