  How can I add a standard ‘Copyright 2015 – Myblog’ to the footer of a site. I would like the year to be self-incrementing.

  The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

  Please use this CSS and change the content to whatever you wish.

  .twelve.columns:before {
      display: block;
      content: "Copyright 2015 - Myblog";
  }

  The year number has to be updated manually because CSS doesn’t know math :-)

  Thank you for the CSS, it will work.
  I’m disappointed though because I usually work on the WordPress.org side and every theme has this functionality included in every footer, referencing a Js script that auto-detects year. It’s a nice way to keep a site fresh.
  I know WordPress.com doesn’t give users the ability to use Javascript but that doesn’t preclude a theme running the script.
