Author data in site config is not formatted correctly in a post

[georgew509]

I created a new site and installed the Zen theme. I added my Author info to the site config:

params:
  author:
    name: "George Wilder"

What I see for that Author line in the Post summary and the Post:

map[name:George Wilder] - December 12, 2023

If I define the author in the post front matter:
author: "George Wilder"

it works fine (no map[]).

Did I do something wrong or is this an issue with the theme?

I believe this issue is fixed in v4. See https://github.com/frjo/hugo-theme-zen/releases

The changes from v3 to v4 is not that big. The big difference is that v4 now requires Hugo v0.124 or later.

You found a bug. I was using $.Param "author" that will fall back to the global params if the page param does not exist. Have replaced it with .Params.author now.

Please test the latest code and report back if it work for you. If it does I will make a new release.

Thanks for reporting this!
