Bug description

When blog plugin is enabled, the build fails with TypeError: unsupported operand type(s) for |: 'type' and 'NoneType' with blog plugin. This happens on version 9.2.0 and 9.2.1, but did not happen with 9.2.0b3 in the same Python environment.

Thanks for reporting, but sadly, you did not use the info plugin which is mandatory when you create a bug report. Without the plugin, we don't know the necessary information in your environment that might lead to the problem.

We're unable to reproduce it:

mkdocs build
INFO    -  Cleaning site directory
INFO    -  Building documentation to directory: /Users/squidfunk/Downloads/blog-nonetype/site
INFO    -  Documentation built in 0.09 seconds

Please carefully read our bug reporting guidelines and use the info plugin to create a reproduction.

Nonetheless, I think I might have fixed the issue in 0704046. It's likely related to your Python version, but I can only guess because of the missing information. Please check the latest master to see if the issue is gone.

I tried including it, but the TypeError occurs before info plugin produces any output so I removed it because it has no effect in this case. Sorry, I should have noted that explicitly in the original report.

It indeed is, thanks!

Okay, fair enough, no problem then ☺️ Great we could solve it so quickly!
