You want your website to be up to date, but you don’t want to have to manually change the copyright date every year. In that example I gave you the code to use Javascript to output the year. Well in some cases it may make more sense to use PHP to output the copyright year instead, so that’s what I’ll do in this post. Check out the demo, and then grab the code for your website or WordPress blog.

All you need to do is paste the following code right into the XHTML where you want the copyright to show up, PHP does the rest!

&copy; <?php echo date( 'Y' ); ?>
