How do I set the year in the footer Automatically?

I need to make all pages in Marketo update the year in the footer automatically.  I wold normally do this with Javascript but apparently Marketo doesn't like that.

I also attempted to use the system.date token.  Problem their was I cannot break it down to just year.  I would like to use a token but haven't figured out the easy way to do this sight wide.

Any suggestion?

Please move the thread to Products. "Community" is for website feedback, not product support -- and yes, this is confusing!

What do you mean "Marketo doesn't like" JavaScript? Mkto LPs don't have any probs running JS.

I am taking over an old system and most of the emails and landing pages do not have templates.  So the footer is part of the content.  Every time I put javascript in the editor html area, the tool comments it out.  I can move forward but putting the code in the templates we are creating but I want to fix it in the old pages as well.

What do you mean by No template? Not even a blank free-form one?

Like Greg says, all LPs have templates. Mostly empty perhaps, but they have to be there.

On Free-Form LPs (I assume that's what they are, not Guided LPs, if it's a sufficiently old system) you can add an HTML Element to the canvas.

+1 on Sanford.

The main difficulty is how are you going to add a JS to a Marketo LP. You will have to do it either in the LP or simply add a token to the LP template, then add this same token to the program hosting the LP and add the JS the token.

Forgot to mention this is for Guided LP templates. On free-form, as pointed out by Sanford, just add an HTML element.
