## Opis

**Shortcode for Current Date** enables you to put current date, current month or
current year anywhere in your WordPress site with a simple shortcode.

Just use the shortcode **[current_date]** and when the post or page is displayed,**[
current_date]** will be replaced by the current date. And the date will be translated
according to your site settings.

By default it will show a date like this: 7th May 2017

But you can customize it to your needs. To do that, you’ll need to pass the date
format using an attribute with the shortcode.
 Here are some examples:

**[current_date format=’d/m/Y’]** will show the date like this: **07/05/2017**
 **[
current_date format=’F d, Y’]** will show the date like this: **May 07, 2017**

If you don’t understand how this formatting works, that’s totally okay.

### Gutenberg Block

If you are using Gutenberg editor, there’s a Current Date block you can use to insert
the current date in your posts/pages.

If you use the block, you will not have to use the shortcode.

When you insert the block, on the right sidebar under block options you will see
a field to put the format for the date.

### Styling

You can use 'size’ and 'color’ attributes to style the date.

For example, [current_date format=’d/m/Y’ size=’20px’ color=’#FF0000′]
