Auto-Update Your Copyright for PhpLD
June 2nd, 2008This is no complicated hack, but it comes in handy because it such a small thing. I know I always forget about it.
Open init.php and find
[php]?>[/php]
Above Add
[php]//Auto Update Copyright
$start_year = ‘2007’;
if($stary_year < date('Y')){
$copyright = $start_year . ' - ' . date('Y');
}else{
$copyright = $start_year;
}
$tpl->assign(‘copyright’, ‘Lobo Links Directory © ‘.$copyright);
//Auto Update Copyright[/php]
Open templates/your_template/footer.tpl and add where you want your copyright to show.
[php]{$copyright}[/php]
That is it. Wuwu!
Edit After some discussion on the DP Forums, Aubenry shared a way to do it with smarty.
[php]© Yourdomain.com {if $smarty.now|date_format:”%Y” gt 2007} 2007 – {$smarty.now|date_format:”%Y”} {else} 2007 {/if}All Rights Reserved[/php]
I think I could do a more fancy version, but that one is just too simple.
