Expected behavior

Timezone gets set to UTC

Actual behavior

Timezone remains local time

How to reproduce?

• Set timezone to UTC in _config.yml
• Change date_format to date_format: YYYY-MM-DDTHH:mm:ss.SSSZ
• Write a post using a timezone
• When I load it up, the timezone is -0700 for me as I am currently in PDT, expect Z or +0000

Thank you for reporting this issue, I'm sorry it hasn’t been resolved over the past few years. I believe this issue shares the same root cause as hexo-front-matter#28, and is likely to be addressed by hexo-front-matter#146.

Since many users have reported similar problems, and to consolidate the discussion, I will go ahead and close this issue. Please join the conversation in the hexo-front-matter repository. Thank you!
