Description

Pelican is designed to allow metadata in a YAML header block in source Markdown files. For example, status: draft allows you to commit drafts to the repository without them going up onto the live site.

We temporarily disabled this feature when we switched to the Marko Markdown parser. So, we need to turn it on again by writing a parser element for Marko and including it as a parser mixin in the Janeway plugin.

Research direction

Start by locating the Marko parser integration and the Janeway plugin's parser mixins. Read how existing parser elements handle YAML header metadata, then verify that flags such as status: draft are extracted from Markdown and that draft content is excluded from the live site. Done means the previously disabled metadata behavior works again.
