The TZM Copyright Block is designed to streamline the display of copyright notices on websites. This block displays a copyright symbol with an automatically updated year, making it ideal for users who want a set-it-and-forget-it solution to keeping copyright information accurate and current.
You can customize the copyright display to fit your needs by:
<ul>
<li>Adding prefixes and suffixes to personalize your copyright text</li>
<li>Setting a year range to show start and end years (e.g., 2020–2024)</li>
<li>Choosing between full-year or two-digit formats for a streamlined look</li>
<li>Using the Block Editor’s built-in styling options to seamlessly match your site’s design</li>
</ul>
This plugin ensures that setting up your copyright information is quick, easy, and requires no coding knowledge. It dynamically displays the year, so there’s no need to manually update the date on each website every year — a convenient solution for both small individual sites and large-scale corporate websites.

TZM Copyright Block

A simple block to display a copyright notice with a dynamically updated year.

Adds copyright year or interval o’ years where desired. By default, it just shows the current year, as specified by the server ( which is hopefully keeping accurate track o’ time ). Optionally, you can include a start year. If the start year is different from the current year, then it will show an interval ‘tween the start year & current year.
For instance, if you set the start year to 2015, in 2018 you will get the following:
<pre><code>2015 - 2018
</code></pre>
You can also set a custom divider if you want the interval sign to look different. For instance, if you don’t want the hyphen to have spaces round it, you could set the divider to “-“, & you will get the following:
<pre><code>2015-2018
</code></pre>
<h3>Example</h3>
<pre><code><?php

declare( strict_types = 1 );
namespace MyTheme\FooterTemplate
{
 use \WaughJ\CopyrightYear\CopyrightYear;

 ?>
 <footer class="footer">
 Copyright Jaimeson Waugh &copy; <?= new CopyrightYear( 2015, '-' ); ?>.
 </footer>
 <?php
}
</code></pre>
or
<pre><code>[copyright-year start="2015" divider="-"]
</code></pre>
This will print the message, <code>Copyright Jaimeson Waugh © 2015-2018.</code>
