Current Year and Footer Information is a free WordPress plugin designed to streamline the process of displaying copyright information, the current year, legal notices, and cookies policy on your website. It offers a set of shortcodes that enable users to easily insert these elements without manual updates each year, ensuring that the information is always accurate and up-to-date. The plugin is particularly beneficial for multilingual WordPress sites, enhancing compatibility across different languages.

Users can utilize shortcodes such as [c] for the copyright symbol, [cy] for the current year, [legal_notice] for custom legal notice links, and [cookies] for cookies policy links. This functionality allows for flexibility in displaying information, such as combining copyright with legal notices in a single line. By automating these updates, the plugin reduces the maintenance burden on website owners and enhances legal compliance.
