## Description

The short description really says it all. No bullshit, no complex stuff, just a 
simple shortcode that you can copy and paste to save a few seconds. I really made
this so that I wouldn’t have to glance at the date every time that I posted an article;
quite lazy, I know, but automating stuff is cool, and now I at least know how to
put up a plugin on the WordPress repository.

## Screenshots

 * This is what your shortcode should look like. Really simple, just [post_published].

I noticed this coding on a blog, but was paranoid about digging into code. I’m gratified
to see it in plugin form. Gave me the motsy to open this up in the wp editor, so
I could add my preferred date format ( ‘M j, Y’ ) for Jul 29, 2018. Happy camper!
Thank you
