I actually edit the presets using notepad on a Windows PC without Lightroom running I hasten to add – once you know where the files are stored then it easy to replace the 2020 with 2021 without any editing done inside Lightroom – start Lightroom and, voila, all done, quicker and easier to do. The main data ie your information and dates are plain text, do NOT edit the file headers etc.

In reply to Rudi. Agreed. Using variables would be so simple and helpful.

As always, I use PhotoMechanic to import and use the variables so I never again have to take care about renaming of files, creating folders with appropriate names and dates. I wonder why Adoby isn’t willing to do this?

Unless I have missed something in the latest LR updates there has to be a step 7 in your process
Step 7 Go to the LR import button and tap. Find the metadata section which has your 2020 Copyright and select it bringing up a panel that has your new 2021 copyright info select it hit enter now all your pictures for this year will have your new copyright

In reply to Johan Schmidt. I am not an attorney, so this is not legal advice, but what it does is let people who download your image know that: a) This is a copyrighted image and is NOT free for you to use. b) it gives them your contact info in case they want to buy or license your image. Doing this, of course, DOES NOT actually copyright your image — that is done separately (here in the US) by the govt. copyright office, so what you’re just doing is alerting people that you intend to protect your intellectual property rights.
