This plugin provides the <code>[iagc]</code> shortcode, which can be inserted on a WordPress Page or Post to display the official Copyright notice, a C with a circle around it (“©”) required legally in many countries to protect (“copyright”) many forms of intellectual property.
The <code>[iagy]</code> shortcode displays the current year. To display the Copyright symbol followed by the current year, use the <code>[iagcy]</code> shortcode.
Although not required in a Copyright notice, the <code>[iagm]</code> shortcode displays the name of the current month and the <code>[iagd]</code> shortcode displays the current day of the month.
Note that the day, month and year are truly Current, accurate to the moment the Page or Post is displayed, based on the Timezone set in WordPress General Settings.
To provide compatibility with previous Versions of this plugin, the <code>[c]</code>, <code>[y]</code>, <code>[cy]</code>, <code>[m]</code> and <code>[d]</code> shortcodes will still work, but one or more of them will be disabled if any other activated plugin or theme defines the same shortcode, so as not to interfere with that other plugin or theme.

🆕 New features: now you can add a background image and the link to your Privacy Policy page with a couple of clicks.
The Dynamic Year Block will automatically update the copyright year in your website footer. At the turn of each year, the number will automatically change to reflect the current year, freeing you from manually editing the year every new year’s eve.
The plugin works for both classic and block themes, but it is especially useful in the context of the Site Editor, where you can visually change the footer template part without messing with code. Just insert the Dynamic Year Block, enter your copyright notice and you’re done. 💪
You can open <a href="https://playground.wordpress.net/?plugin=dynamic-year-block" rel="nofollow ugc">this WordPress Playground site</a> in your browser to quickly test it.
⚠️ Important: please configure your timezone in “Settings → General → Timezone” in your WordPress dashboard, so that the year displayed by the block matches your server time and the timezone set in WordPress.
This is a community plugin that can always be downloaded for free without any paid subscription from <a href="https://wordpress.org/plugins/dynamic-year-block/" rel="ugc">the official WordPress repository</a>.
