# Shortcode for Current Date Translation

 * Hi, I am using the plugin “Shortcode for Current Date” to put the actual year(
   so 2023 at the moment) into my h1s. Also I am using automatic translation with
   Deepl.
 * In the backend I see as h1 / title
   post title [current_date format=’Y’] – Bla
   bla bla
 * In the frontend the visitor sees as h1 / title
   post title 2023 – Bla bla bla
 * This gets also “translated” via the whole string for other languages. So when
   we would head into 2024 all customized strings would be gone.
 * Can I exclude [current_date format=’Y’] from translation everywhere so when we
   change the year not all custom translations are gone?
 * Thank you!
