When r u actualy going to update your footer 2012 date? - GoFuckYourself.com

I have 60 sites about, maybe 600 pages.

I should be done around July.

In Dreamweaver, you should create your footer as a Library item. Then just update the Library item and it'll update site-wide.

For my Joomla sites, it's even easier.

Apparently, you don't know php or javascript

machinegunkelly · 01-03-2012, 05:14 PM

<?php echo date("Y"); ?>

;)

All my sites are done in Wordpress and it automatically adjusted the dates for all of them, even though the WP installs I use are all several versions behind.

Code:

<script type="text/javascript">
<!--
var currentTime = new Date()
var year = currentTime.getFullYear()
document.write(year)
//-->
</script>

Only for this, extra code and more things to jump through when updating the individualize pages.

I could change the pages to php just for the reason to use:

<?php echo date("Y"); ?>

But I don't liek full sites in php slow loading and resource hogs. Only use it when I really have to.

PHP is not slow and is not a resource hog.

if you wannna show the start year, as well as the current year this should do it.

Code:

<?php 

function custom_copyright() { 
    global $wpdb; 
    $copyright_dates = $wpdb->get_results("SELECT YEAR(min(post_date_gmt)) AS firstdate, YEAR(max(post_date_gmt)) AS lastdate FROM $wpdb->posts WHERE post_status = 'publish'"); 
    $output = ''; 
    if($copyright_dates) { 
        $copyright = "&copy; " . $copyright_dates[0]->firstdate; 
        if($copyright_dates[0]->firstdate != $copyright_dates[0]->lastdate) { 
            $copyright .= '-' . $copyright_dates[0]->lastdate; 
        } 
        $output = $copyright; 
    } 
    return $output; 
}

Of course PHP has it's purpose and if you don't need to use it, then there is no reason too... as you stated in your previous post (you using it only when needed).

I personally wouldn't compare it to HTML because PHP isn't only used for web development. PHP can be ran from the command line and used as a web service. The world I come from is the world of many years as a Software Engineer.

+1

You can also create an include and put it into the footer of all of your sites. Change it once, it changes it across all of them.
