Website Year Automatic Update With PHP Code
To update your website year information automaticlly (usually in the site footer) add the following php code to the footer:
<?php
ini_set(‘date.timezone’, ‘Europe/Dublin’);
$startYear = 2006;
$thisYear = date(‘Y’);
if ($startYear == $thisYear) {
echo $startYear;
}
else {
echo “{$startYear}-{$thisYear}”;
}
?>
Save, upload and view. Simple.
Remember to change ‘$startYear = 2007′ to the year your site went live. Also, when adding PHP code your webpage must be a PHP page.
Important note: If you copy and paste the PHP code into an editor (like Dreamweaver) you may need to replace the commas etc. For some reason they don’t ready properly sometimes. Beats me!
