随着PHP朝着更面向对象的方向发展，我很惊讶这里没有人引用内置的DateTime类:

$now = new DateTime();
$year = $now->format("Y");

或者在实例化时使用类成员访问的一行程序(php>=5.4):

$year = (new DateTime)->format("Y");

只写:

date("Y") // A full numeric representation of a year, 4 digits
          // Examples: 1999 or 2003

Or:

date("y"); // A two digit representation of a year     Examples: 99 or 03

然后“echo”这个值…

适用于php 5.4+版本

<?php
    $current= new \DateTime();
    $future = new \DateTime('+ 1 years');

    echo $current->format('Y'); 
    //For 4 digit ('Y') for 2 digit ('y')
?>

或者你可以把它用在一行上

$year = (new DateTime)->format("Y");

如果你想增加或减少一年另一个方法;添加修改行如下所示。

<?PHP 
  $now   = new DateTime;
  $now->modify('-1 years'); //or +1 or +5 years 
  echo $now->format('Y');
  //and here again For 4 digit ('Y') for 2 digit ('y')
?>

以我为例，wordpress网站页脚的版权声明需要更新。

想法很简单，但涉及的步骤比预期的要多。

Open footer.php in your theme's folder. Locate copyright text, expected this to be all hard coded but found: <div id="copyright"> <?php the_field('copyright_disclaimer', 'options'); ?> </div> Now we know the year is written somewhere in WordPress admin so locate that to delete the year written text. In WP-Admin, go to Options on the left main admin menu: Then on next page go to the tab Disclaimers: and near the top you will find Copyright year: DELETE the © symbol + year + the empty space following the year, then save your page with Update button at top-right of page. With text version of year now delete, we can go and add our year that updates automatically with PHP. Go back to chunk of code in STEP 2 found in footer.php and update that to this: <div id="copyright"> &copy;<?php echo date("Y"); ?> <?php the_field('copyright_disclaimer', 'options'); ?> </div> Done! Just need to test to ensure changes have taken effect as expected.

这对很多人来说可能不是同样的情况，但是我们在相当多的客户站点中遇到过这种模式，并且认为最好在这里记录。

<?php
$time_now=mktime(date('h')+5,date('i')+30,date('s'));
$dateTime = date('d_m_Y   h:i:s A',$time_now);

echo $dateTime;
?>
