The Instant View Editor uses a three-column layout, so you really want to use it on a desktop screen that's wide enough. Sorry for the inconvenience.

Issue #3

Using the time from the source article without any timezone conversion is just plain wrong.
The article metadata contains two conflicting times:

08:28:14 UTC+2 (06:28:14 UTC) resulting from either:
//meta[@itemprop="datePublished"]/@content
or:
//time[@itemprop="datePublished"]/@datetime

10:28:14 UTC+2 (08:28:14 UTC) obtained via:
//meta[@property="article:published_time"]/@content

Issue #1 of template #11 explains why the latter is the correct one.

Then this template shows 10:28 UTC, that was even yet to pass as I started writing this. But I don't think they used a time machine.

Dario, thank you for the explanation of you position. It's also correct, but handling of timezone is optional and up to the template creator.
