Hello,
I found the file to edit to make this happen. It is a bit of a hack since I would much rather put this in a larger global search and replace function.
Here is the code:
Edit /templates/<yourTemplate>/features/copyright.php
find:<span class="copytext"><?php echo $this->get('text'); ?></span>
and REPLACE it with:<?php echo str_replace('{copyY}',date('Y'),$this->get('text'));?></span>
Then in your Copyright Field you can use {copyY} for the place where you want the current year:
Copyright 1999 - {copyY} My Company - All Rights Reserved
Now, when January 1st comes around, you do not have to update the copyright on all your websites.
