   - This should also include the subpath if you are [[hosting]] on GitHub pages without a custom domain. For example, if my repository is `jackyzha0/quartz`, GitHub pages would deploy to `https://jackyzha0.github.io/quartz` and the `baseUrl` would be `jackyzha0.github.io/quartz`.
   - Note that Quartz 5 will avoid using this as much as possible and use relative URLs whenever it can to make sure your site works no matter _where_ you end up actually deploying it.
 - `ignorePatterns`: a list of [glob](<https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Glob_(programming)>) patterns that Quartz should ignore and not search through when looking for files inside the `content` folder. See [[private pages]] for more details.
-- `defaultDateType`: whether to use created, modified, or published as the default date to display on pages and page listings.
 - `theme`: configure how the site looks.
   - `cdnCaching`: if `true` (default), use Google CDN to cache the fonts. This will generally be faster. Disable (`false`) this if you want Quartz to download the fonts to be self-contained.
   - `typography`: what fonts to use. Any font available on [Google Fonts](https://fonts.google.com/) works here.
