Did you refresh your browser?

View a fresh version of your web page by doing a hard refresh, restarting your browser or opening an incognito window. Browser cache could prevent changes from showing.

Does your website use page caching?

Automatic cache clearing helps saved plugin edits take effect on most websites. Page cache is automatically cleared sitewide each time settings are saved. If you do not see changes take effect after refreshing your browser, clear page cache manually. Learn more.

Are you using a footer socket or footer widget?

The plugin was designed to detect a copyright year in the footer section of your website. If a copyright is placed in the body, header or other area, even if it is global, the update will not work. If you have gone through all of the troubleshooting tips and the plugin is not working with your site, it is possible that the Theme is coded in a non-standard way.
