  • Newbie question:

    How can I change the information in my footer. All I want to do is change the copyright date from 2006 to 2007. Thanks.

  • Rather depends on the theme.

    Most provide a Footer template (footer.php). You should be able to edit this through the Theme Editor, or by downloading the template and opening it in a text editor.

    Thanks. I have a footer.php, but no date appears there. I don’t know how to change the date. Here is what is in the footer. See below:

    <hr class=”low” />

    <!– footer …………………………… –>
    <div id=”footer”>

    <p>© Copyright <?php echo date(“Y”).” “; bloginfo(‘name’); ?>. All rights reserved.
    WordPress – <?php wp_loginout(); ?></p>
    <?php do_action(‘wp_footer’); ?>

    </div> <!– /footer –>

    </div> <!– /container –>

    </body>

    </html>

    The line echo date("Y") will output 2007.

    If you want to format this date to display something different, you’ll need to modify the date() function.

    Check out the options and examples here: http://au2.php.net/date

    or you can just remove the code and input the year.
