Handle dates wrapped in quotes

[ghost]

I added Netlify CMS to my Jigsaw blog.

The markdown files it generates have dates that look like this date: '2018-04-23'.

Jigsaw can't read this properly, so the date I get on my post created from their CMS shows January 1, 1970.

There's already an open issue on their repo about this but I thought that I should bring it up here too.

I suggest that Jigsaw be tweaked in a way that allows it to read the date with or without quotes.

In my own site I use quotes with the dates.

author: "Wilbur Powery"
date: "2018-05-17"
section: content

I don't get no issues with my posts collection when using quotes in my post date.

Oh, so it works with double quotes then? I see.

Unfortunately the quotes added by Netlify CMS are single quotes and they seem to not be parsed correctly by Jigsaw.

Well, this is a minor issue anyway and will become irrelevant when/if they eventually fix the issue on their end, I'll keep this issue open though.

@raniesantos can you do {{ date('c', strtotime($page->date)) }} which I do for an rss page, (with your own date letter fromat of course.)
