Repository metrics are context, not quality scores. Active installations measure adoption and can strongly reflect a plugin’s age and historical popularity. Ratings, recent updates and “Tested up to” metadata also do not guarantee modern code, error-free operation, security, feature completeness or suitability for a particular site.

Overview

About this plugin

This plugin lets you easily display copyright information anywhere on your site with a block or shortcodes.

It automatically keeps the copyright year current and lets you style the text color and font size globally from the admin panel.

Includes a Settings page with a global text-color picker, font size control, one-click copy buttons, and live previews for all shortcodes.

Set a global company name and optional start year, and preview changes before saving. The Copyright block offers three layouts and optional per-block overrides.
