We just launched a new blog recently and when checking the Jetpack stats, I noticed something seemed odd. According to my quick stats view it was already a new day. Now, I was pretty sure that it was only late in the day and I had not actually worked through the night. Nope, I really love my sleep.
This is when I knew that I had forgotten to make a change inside of my WordPress General Settings.
How do you get to your WordPress General Settings?
- Step 1: Log into your WordPress dashboard
- Step 2: Scroll down and click on Settings (on the left)
Timezone
This was my problem child because it was set to a random UTC time zone. When you select the down arrow to set the time zone, there will be a ton of choices. My tip to you is to start typing in the time zone that you are in and it will jump to it or something close.
Ok I hope that your blog is in the same timezone as you, mine is now!
What a great tip, Renee! I would have never even thought of the difference in time zones. Thank you for this!
