copyright symbol
-
I plan to distribute copies of my blog to memers of my business community and I would like to make it clear to them that the blogs are copyrighted by attaching the copyright symbol to every blog. Can you help me do that at CSS?
The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

by attaching the copyright symbol to every blog.
Sorry that I’m not quite sure what you mean with this. Do you want to add a copyright text *after* each blog post?
Or do you want to add a single copyright note at the footer of your site?
Either way, that should be possible with CSS. Would be great if also write the copyright wordings that you have in mind.

I was not actually thinking of adding much text. Specifically that little c in a circle that indicates copywrite and then, perhaps, the word Copyright (followed by the date it was first written) Some of my blogs were written as newspaper columns several years ago and I hold the copywrite on them. Others will be written this year.
-
Under each of your blog posts, there is a date display. Would you like the copyright notice added next to it?
If I understand it right, you wanted to add the date when the article was written. Perhaps an easier alternative is, instead of using CSS, you could just write the copyright note at the end of each post?

That may be the simplest way. I just thought that there might be the standard copyright symbol somewhaere, just as ther eis the at symbole and the pound symbol, etc. It there is not, then there is not. It is probably better for me to addsomething about acknowledging the source,anyway. Thanks for your help.

Ah, if that’s what you’re looking for, you can write
©in Text mode when editing a post, and it will show up as the copyright symbol on your post.(More info about Text mode here, in case you need it: http://en.support.wordpress.com/editors/#text-editor)

Wait, sorry. The forum automatically converts my code. You need to write
& copy ;(but without the space between & and copy and ;) -

I seem to have lost contact with my regular helpers and I was not getting anywhere following her directions on my own. This is what I did. I went to Appearance, then Customization, then CSS. I was unable to enter anything under CSS, except at the bottom next to number 17. There I wrote .entry-date:after{content”©”‘} In writing this, I was faithfully recreating the code that Brooke gave me. This did not work. Obviously I am doing something wrong–maybe several things. Will you please help me more? Joyce

You can use the custom characters in the Visual editor – row 1 – it’s the 8th one there. http://en.support.wordpress.com/visual-editor/#custom-characters

Crawling under rock now as I failed to note this thread was in the CSS Forum – sorry. :(

C,mon out now, sweetiee. Everything is OK. My copyright sybol is resting comfortably in my footer and I am basking in the delusion that I have now written code. Seriously, I so much appreciate your help in all this. Thanks, Joyce

Hi Joyce,
I can see it and I thank you for being gracious about my idiotic insertion above. -
There I wrote .entry-date:after{content”©”‘} In writing this, I was faithfully recreating the code that Brooke gave me.
To use special characters in the CSS “content” property and have it work well in most browsers, you need to use a special code. There’s a really good guide about that at http://css-tricks.com/css-content/ under “Using Special Characters” if you’re interested.
Instead of this:
.entry-date:after{content"©"'}You would want this:
.entry-date:after { content: "0A9"; }Don’t forget the “:” after “content”
If you wanted to put the symbol before the date, you could do something like this instead:
.entry-date:before { content: "0A9 "; }
