Descripcion
Keep date time related texts relevant. « I have worked for x years. » becomes outdated within a year. Years since keeps « x » current in your posts and allow your content to age well.
Usage
A year must be provided in your text by the attribute « y » such as [years-since y=2012].
As an option, Months by referencing « m » and day by using « d ». Months and day default to « 1 » if not added in the shortcode.
For example, on an « About » page text, you might have something like:
We’ve worked remotely for [years-since y=2012], which has allowed the team to spend more time traveling and spending time with family.
Or, if you wanted to update a time span on a particular anniversary, you could do something like:
I’m [years-since y=1990 m=5 d=16] old.
