Why are Date, etc fields indented?

[beetleb]

Context: I use Pelican (http://docs.getpelican.com/en/stable/) for my static site generator. It takes in several input formats (rst, md, etc).

I write my posts in rst, but really want to use org. Hence, ox-rst.

My ideal workflow would be where I can just write in Org, and export without having to edit the final rst file. Where this fails is the fact that fields like "Date" are indented in the output ox-rst produces.

I honestly don't know if Pelican is at fault, or ox-rst is not conforming. But is there a way to have the date not be indented so that I need not manually edit the rst files?

Thanks,

Hi.

The rst format that produced by ox-rst is appropriate for the input to docutils. Docutils has not complained about this indents. Ok. If I could have time, I will modify ox-rst for getting rid of indents at lines of 'in-buffer settings'.

Hmm... I looked at the RST Docs and while they do show field lists unindented, they don't specify that it needs to be that way. Perhaps instead of you changing this I should take it up with the Pelican folks to understand why it isn't accepting indented field lists.
