Y is showing wrong year

Hello, thank you for your help!
My copyright footer is saying 2018, not 2021.
The code I have used is:

add_action( ‘init’, ‘custom_remove_footer_credit’, 10 );

function custom_remove_footer_credit () {
remove_action( ‘storefront_footer’, ‘storefront_credit’, 20 );
add_action( ‘storefront_footer’, ‘custom_storefront_credit’, 20 );
}

function custom_storefront_credit() {
?>
<div class=”site-info”>
© <?php echo get_bloginfo( ‘name’ ) . ‘ ‘ . get_the_date( ‘Y’ ); ?>
</div><!– .site-info –>
<?php
}

Everything seems to be up to date and the timezone/date format is correct.
Any ideas?
Thanks again,
Emily.

I believe that’s going to pull the year the site started instead of the current date. I changed the function to use PHP’s date() instead of WordPress’s get_the_date().


add_action( 'init', 'ijab_remove_footer_credit', 10 );

function ijab_remove_footer_credit () {
    remove_action( 'storefront_footer', 'storefront_credit', 20 );
    add_action( 'storefront_footer', 'ijab_custom_footer_credit', 20 );
}

function ijab_custom_footer_credit() {
    ?>
    <div class="site-info">
		<p>&copy; <?php echo date( 'Y' ) . ' ' . get_bloginfo( 'name' ); ?></p>
    </div><!-- .site-info -->
    <?php
}

On my test site that appears to work.
