Automatic Copyright Year

Beskrivelse

Automatic Copyright Year seeks to solve a common problem: keeping your copyright year up-to-date.

It’s a problem all of us had: on January 1st every year, we need to go through every one of our websites and update all the footers. And when we see other people’s sites that, in the footer, say, “(c) 1998” then suddenly it’s revealed how out-of-date the site is.

With Automatic Copyright Year, this problem will never happen to you!

Instead of going through every site you have each year on the 1st of January and change the year manually, now it will all be done seamlessly for you. Just install the Automatic Copyright Year plugin and voila: your sites will always have an up-to-date copyright.

Installation

The installation and use is very straightforward. You should:

  1. Upload the folder automatic-copyright-year to the /wp-content/plugins/ directory
  2. Activate the plugin through the ‘Plugins’ menu in WordPress
  3. Add ‘<span>[wpsos_year]</span>’ ([wpsos_year], surrounded by span tags) to a widget or to anywhere inside the html footer element. You can also use [wpsos_year] as a shortcode!

FAQ

Which options do you modify?

As of version 1.0, there is no need to modify any options. The plugin will go through the content of your widgets and the html footer tag and replace [wpsos_year] with the current year number.

Thank you so much for this plugin! It makes the process of dynamically updating the copyright super easy. Thank you for updating it too. Let people know what they can do to support you so you can continue to maintain this plugin!

My only criticism of this excellent little plugin is that it’s so long since it was last updated. It still works fine but Wordfence tells me it might be unsafe because it appears to be abandoned. I just wish that it could be “unabandoned” – or that someone could create an up-to-date equivalent. Update: (23 July 2019) The plugin has recently been updated and I have accordingly changed my rating from 4 stars to 5.
