Tip: Dynamically display Year from entries not from this year
EE Insider contributor Erik Reagan submitted a tip to the EE Insider Tips section of the site about displaying years for entries not from this year:
I personally hate going to blog sites and not knowing when an article was published. I often see ‘June 2’ but no year. Sometimes I’m actually interested in whether or not that means this June 2nd or last June second, or even a June from years ago.
Erik posted a simple code snippet to check for the date and then display the year if isn’t the current year. Be sure to read the entire tip for all of the info.
