Updating Your Website's Copyright Status

One common overlooked editable space on your website is the site footer. In most cases, website footers are created for clubs during the initial ClubHouse Online e3 project. This space commonly gets neglected as other full pages on the site get created and edited every day. There is, however, a Copyright year placed within the site footer to ensure your content is protected – this needs to be edited annually to ensure your website is up to date. As we are now in 2016, follow these steps below to modify your website footer and change ‘2015’ to ‘2016’.
