## 描述

This is a plugin which adds a simple shortcode to display the current year or a 
dynamic year range, particularly useful for copyright statements at the bottom of
your website.

Its most basic usage is `[year]`, which will display the current year. If you provide
a starting year with the ‘from’ parameter, it will expand into a date range when
the ‘from’ year is before the current year.

If `[year]` is used by another plugin, then it uses the fallback `[runthings_year]`
which can be customised with the `runthings_current_year_shortcode_tag` filter. 
You can see the active shortcode tag in it entry in the installed plugins page.

#### Features

 * Display current year with `[year]`
 * Create a dynamic year range with `[year from="2020"]`
 * Abbreviated year format with `[year from="2020" mode="short"]`, which shows “
   2020-26” (if the current year is 2026)
 * Automatic fallback shortcode `[runthings_year]` if another plugin already uses
   the ‘year’ shortcode
 * Filter (`runthings_current_year_shortcode_tag`) to set your own shortcode

#### Usage Examples

Assuming the current year is 2026:

 * `[year]` displays “2026”
 * `[year from="2026"]` displays “2026” (since it’s the current year)
 * `[year from="1983"]` displays “1983-2026”
 * `[year from="2020" mode="short"]` displays “2020-26” (shortened current year)
 * `[year from="1995" mode="short"]` displays “1995-2026” (not shortened because
   centuries differ)

### Filters

#### runthings_current_year_shortcode_tag

This filter allows customization of the shortcode tag used by the plugin.

For detailed documentation and examples, see the [full documentation on GitHub](https://github.com/runthings-dev/runthings-current-year-shortcode#filters).

Parameters:

 1. **`$tag`** (`string`): The shortcode tag to be registered. Defaults to ‘year’ or‘
    runthings_year’ if conflicted.

## 安装

 1. Upload the plugin files to the `/wp-content/plugins/runthings-current-year-shortcode`
    directory, or install the plugin through the WordPress plugins screen directly.
 2. Activate the plugin through the ‘Plugins’ screen in WordPress.
 3. Use the `[year]` shortcode in your posts, pages, or widgets.

## 常见问题

### What if another plugin already uses the [year] shortcode?

If another plugin already uses the `[year]` shortcode, this plugin will automatically
use `[runthings_year]` instead to avoid conflicts.

### How can I check which shortcode is active?

On the Plugins admin page, you’ll see the active shortcode listed in the plugin’s
row.

### Can I use this in my footer?

Yes! This shortcode works perfectly in footer widgets, custom footer code, or anywhere
else shortcodes are supported in your theme.

### What’s the ‘mode=short’ parameter for?

When using a date range with years in the same century (e.g., 2020-2026), the ‘short’
mode will abbreviate the end year to just the last digits (2020-26), creating a 
cleaner look for your copyright statements.
