Perhaps I’l write a post about it on http://www.Vintuitive.com explaining the process instead.

Instead, copy and paste this simple bit of code where you want the date to appear and it will happen automatically at the turn of each new year:

Precede that code with this small addition to create the Copyright symbol:

&copy

Now you have more free time each year and never need to worry about changing the date ever again.

I have often heard about ‘posting ahead’ and scheduling posts but wasn’t sure how to do it and had never taken the time to actually learn and find out for myself. Handy timing indeed!

One really silly thing on dates that may not even belong here … In a piece that includes an event taking place, I would suggest adding the year. I know that if you have included the day of the week (you did, didn’t you?), then your reader can work out whether it takes place this year, or whether it is an old post, but it is a kindness to just give that extra bit of info!
