How to add the year in the archive list title

    Hello,

    I installed your plugin in my website and it’s working as expected ??

    I tried to add a subtitle to the archive page, for example: “Year archives: 2014” but I didn’t succeed. I revised the plugin code but I didn’t find how it gets the year parameter. It’s not present in the WP_Query attributes, and I couldn’t find how WordPress handles this kind of filter.

    I don’t want to modify the page title itself but to add a subtitle containing the year, before the post list. Is that possible?

    Thanks a lot!

    I advise against modifying the plugin as it will be overwritten if an update to the plugin is released.

    In order to dynamically output a subtitle based on which year is showing I’d have add some code to the plugin. I will try to do this soon, but as the plugin stands right now the functionality isn’t built into it. It wouldn’t be in the WP_Query() as that is just how WordPress retrieves the posts from the database.

    Can you send me a link to the page you’re working on? If you don’t want it public you can email it here. I’ll take a look at your layout and see if I can fit a subtitle into the code that may fit the big picture for all users.

    I went ahead and added the feature you requested. Please update the plugin to the latest version and let me know if you need help with anything else.

    There is a new shortcode attribute called 'showsubheader' => 'no' that you can use to hide the new subheader. Leave the attribute off completely to show the subheader.

    The subheader will output like this: Category: Example Category Name – Year: 20XX

    Just realized I wrote out the new shortcode attribute wrong in my previous post to this thread. The correct way to write it would be as follows:

    showsubheader="no" to hide the subheader, or leave the attribute off completely to show the subheader.

    If I don’t hear back from you in a couple days I’ll go ahead and mark the support thread as resolved.

    Wow, thank you!

    I tested it and it works. I’ll send you the link by email.

    Sadly, I had to modify the plugin file, since I needed to translate the text to Spanish ??

    Just as a suggestion: the showsubheader default value should be “no”. If not, the current users will be affected by the change.

    Thanks again for your very quick response ??

    You’re welcome, glad I could help. I think you’re right on the default value, I will update it again as soon as I get a chance. I should build in some translations too!
