in my theme i put this code © <?php the_time('Y') ?> Code (markup): but it still showing (c) 2009 ? what happens?
Theirs probably something wrong with the function - the_time. Besides, you don't need a user defined function for that, simple add: put: © <?php echo date("Y"); ?> PHP:
My guess is you're editing the wrong file, not saved it or the theme doesn't take the year from this point in the code. That code is absolutely fine
