Displays a message at the top of single posts published x years ago or earlier, informing about content that may be outdated.

== Description ==

This simple WordPress plugin displays a message in any single post that has been published x years ago from the current time or earlier. The default time to count back is 1 year. Minimal post age as well as message text, HTML, and CSS are [fully customizable via settings](//wordpress.org/plugins/aged-content-message/faq/).

= Languages =

* English (en_US) _(default)_
* German (de_DE)
* Formal German (de_DE_formal)

== Installation ==

If you don’t know how to install a plugin for WordPress, [here’s how](http://codex.wordpress.org/Managing_Plugins#Installing_Plugins).

== Frequently Asked Questions ==

= I can’t find the settings page, where is it? =

**It’s right there, under General Settings in your admin menu.** Configurable settings are:

* __Activate Message__: By default, no message will show up on your website until you activate it here.
* __Minimal Post Age__: Set a number of years for posts to be considered aged. Default: 1.
* __Message Heading__: Heading text. Default: _The times, they are a-changin’_. (Dylan, google him.)
* __Message Body (Singular)__: Singular form of the message text, for 1 year-old posts.
* __Message Body (Plural)__: Plural form of the message text, for 2+ year-old posts.
* __Message Class Attribute__: CSS class name(s) applied upon the message’s wrapping `<div>`.
* __Message HTML__: HTML template for the message. You can completely control its output via this field if you want, or use placeholders for heading and text.
* __Message CSS__: Customize the visual styling of your message right here. Or not.

= Can I disable default styles? =

Sure, just empty the _CSS_ field and no styles shall be applied. If you want to add styles to your theme instead, this might get you started:

`/* Default styles */
.aged-content-message {
	background: #f7f7f7;
	border-left: 5px solid #f39c12;
	font-family: inherit;
	font-size: .875rem;
	line-height: 1.5;
	margin: 1.5rem 0;
	padding: 1.5rem;
}
.aged-content-message h5 {
	font-family: inherit;
	font-size: .8125rem;
	font-weight: bold;
	line-height: 2;
	margin: 0;
	padding: 0;
	text-transform: uppercase;
}
.aged-content-message p {
	margin: 0;
	padding: 0;
}`

= Where have all the filters gone? =

You can still use those good old filters from [v1.3](https://github.com/glueckpress/aged-content-message/tree/v1.3), like for this conditional handbrake that doesn’t have a setting (yet):

`/* Set condition for displaying message to include pages. */
function yourprefix_aged_content_message__the_content_condition() {
	return ! is_single() && ! is_page();
}
add_action( 'aged_content_message__the_content_condition',
	'yourprefix_aged_content_message__the_content_condition' );`
