Provides an interface in the dashboard, similar to the post edit screen, that allows you to easily change the text displayed in the footer on the front-end. After installing the plugin, add the footer_text() template tag to your footer.php theme template where you want the text to display. For more options, see the FAQ.

You can use these shortcodes in the footer text editor:

  • [last_modified] the date that the current page was last modified on
  • [page_link] the full permalink of the current page, formatted. The content wrapped in this shortcode will be used as the link text
  • [year] the current year eg: 2013
