Footer Shortcodes provides an easy way to add the standard footer copyright notice to your website – copyright symbol, Year, Site Title (linked to homepage).
There are separate shortcodes for each element so you can arrange and punctuate them however you like.
There is also a forth shortcode that combines the three elements in the standard way – © thisyear siteTitle.
Footer Shortcodes uses the PHP date() function so the year will always be current.
Shortcodes work in content and widgets but will NOT work in Titles, WP Custom Fields, Site Title, Site Description, Widget Titles, Menus, Headers and the HTML <code><title></code> element.

With <a href="https://github.com/pixelgrade/pixcodes" rel="nofollow ugc">PixCodes</a> you can have a shortcode insert interface.
The awesome part is that you can filter any shortcode parameters or overwrite any shortcode template with your theme.
Note: this plugin does not add any style to the output of shortcodes.
We believe that shortcodes functionality should be offered by a plugin and the style should be provided by themes.
Here is a <a href="http://github.com/pixelgrade/pixcodes/blob/master/README.md" rel="nofollow ugc">detailed documentation</a> about how you can configure some plugin settings and output.

PixCodes

PixCodes offers you a nice interface to add shortcodes into editor.
