custom params on the language top level is deprecated

[rainerrose]

Hi there! Thanks for the great theme.
I struggle a little bit with the language-settings.

config/_default/languages.toml

[de]
  languageName = "Deutsch"
  weight = 1
  #dateFormat = "2. January 2006"
  dateFormat = ':date_full'
  defaultContentLanguage = "de"
  [de.params]
    description = "Anleitungen, HowTos, Code-Schnipsel & Blog"
    [de.params.archive]
      languageName = "Deutsch"
      defaultContentLanguage = "de"
      dateFormat = "02.01."
      description = "Das Archiv der Homepage"
[en]
  languageName = "English"
  weight = 2

[fr]
  languageName = "Français"
  weight = 3
  [fr.params]
    dateFormat = "02-01-2006"

Actually I use hugo in version 0.119.0 and it throws some warnings

WARN  config: languages.de.dateformat: custom params on the language top level is deprecated and will be removed in a future release. Put the value below [languages.de.params]. See https://gohugo.io/content-management/multilingual/#changes-in-hugo-01120

I tried to modify my file config/_default/languages.toml as it is given in the example at the URL above.

[languages]
  [languages.de]
    languageName = "Deutsch"
    weight = 1
    dateFormat = ':date_full'
    defaultContentLanguage = "de"
    [de.params]
      description = "Anleitungen, HowTos, Code-Schnipsel & Blog"
      [de.params.archive]
        languageName = "Deutsch"
        defaultContentLanguage = "de"
        dateFormat = "02.01."
        description = "Das Archiv der Homepage"
  [languages.en]
    languageName = "English"
    weight = 2

  [languages.fr]
    languageName = "Français"
    weight = 3
    [fr.params]
      dateFormat = "02-01-2006"

but there are similar or more warnings /o\

What am I doing wrong? Can someone please help me?

There are some issues on your configuration:

1. You shouldn't specify the leading string/prefix languages, since you're defining the it in languages.* other than config.*/hugo.* file.
2. The dateFormat should be put below the [*.params], * represents the language code.

config/_default/languages.toml should be

[de]
languageName = "Deutsch"
weight = 1
defaultContentLanguage = "de"
[de.params]
dateFormat = ':date_full'
description = "Anleitungen, HowTos, Code-Schnipsel & Blog"
[de.params.archive]
languageName = "Deutsch"
defaultContentLanguage = "de"
dateFormat = "02.01."
description = "Das Archiv der Homepage"

[en]
languageName = "English"
weight = 2

[fr]
languageName = "Français"
weight = 3
[fr.params]
dateFormat = "02-01-2006"

The rest of warnings are similar, you need to put the custom paramaters below the [*.params] block.

Thank you @razonyang very much for your help. It works now and renders without warnings.

So that it may help others, here is my current configuration of config/_default/languages.toml :

[de]
  languageName = "Deutsch"
  weight = 1
  defaultContentLanguage = "de"
  [de.params]
    dateFormat = ':date_full'
    description = "Anleitungen, HowTos, Code-Schnipsel & Blog"
    pygmentsUseClasses = true
    comment = false
  [de.params.archive]
    languageName = "Deutsch"
    defaultContentLanguage = "de"
    dateFormat = "02.01."
    description = "Das Archiv der Homepage"
  
[en]
  languageName = "English"
  weight = 2
  [en.params]
    pygmentsUseClasses = true
    comment = false

[fr]
  languageName = "Français"
  weight = 3
  [fr.params]
    dateFormat = "02-01-2006"
    comment = false
[blackfriday.params]
  hrefTargetBlank = true

[razonyang]

My pleasure, but I'm doubt that the [blackfriday.params] is wrong, the blackfriday probably be treated as language code, since it's placed on the languages.* file. If you want to change Hugo configuration for specified language, create and put the configuration into hugo.*.*, e.g. hugo.fr.toml for fr language only.
