Frequently Asked Questions

Common questions about Dynamic Month & Year into Posts

If you are an affiliate marketer or blogger who uses months, years and dates in your posts. If you use this plugin to render dynamic month, year, date, next year, and previous year shortcodes, you won’t have to update those posts again and again as time passes.
Like running text, you can use the shortcodes in both Block Editor and Classic Editor. You can also use the shortcodes in widget areas, including the footer (use-case: Autoupdating Copyright Year) and headers (use-case: Today’s Date).
Yes. The shortcode outputs are WPML ready and render as per the language set in your WordPress dashboard. Since there is no settings page, you don’t have to translate this plugin.
You can use <?php echo do_shortcode('[year]');?>, <?php echo do_shortcode('[month]');?> etc. in themes or in functionality plugins to use these shortcodes.
This plugin doesn't render shortcodes in ACF fields by default (due to various reasons, security being the first). But if you really need to render [year] etc., shortcodes, you can enable selective rendering. Just add this code in your theme's functions.php file or in the Code Snippets plugin: ACF field type => text add_filter('acf/format_value/type=text', 'do_shortcode'); ACF field name => headline add_filter('acf/format_value/name=headline', 'do_shortcode');
Since 1.7.1, you can use the dmyip_core_filters filter to selectively disable shortcode processing. Add this to your theme's functions.php or a code snippets plugin: Disable all core filters: add_filter( 'dmyip_core_filters', '__return_empty_array' ); Disable only title processing: add_filter( 'dmyip_core_filters', function ( $filters ) { $filters['the_title'] = false; return $filters; } ); Available keys: the_title, single_post_title, wp_title, the_excerpt, get_the_excerpt, get_the_archive_title. All default to true.
