Did you ever want a quick way to print a nice footer with the copyright in years?
Here’s a shortcode for that! Put it in your themes functions.php and use anywhere!
add_shortcode('copyright-year', function($atts, $content) { extract(shortcode_atts(array( 'sign' => 'true', 'start' => '', ), $atts)); $current_year = date('Y'); $print_sign = ($sign === 'true') ? '©' : ''; if($start === $current_year || $start === '') return "{$print_sign} {$current_year}"; else return "{$print_sign} {$start} - {$current_year}"; });
Usage

[copyright-year sign="false"]
Result: 2019
With copyright sign and a “start year”.
[copyright-year sign="true" start="2012"]
