WordPress time is screwed up???

When logged in, go to “Settings -> General” and make sure you have the correct offset in the Timezone field.

Hi,

You can set the timing to your desired settings from wordpress admin ares -> settings -> general settings -> Timezone area.

Thanks,

Yup I set it to UTC+8 which is my time zone, and it says “UTC +8 is 2009-05-18 6:01:37 ” which is incorrect!

As of now, my time is Sunday 11:47pm and UTC+8 should be Monday, 2:47pm

@kmessinger yours is correct, but mine is wrong. Mine says:

UTC time is 2009-05-18 0:18:34 UTC +8 is 2009-05-18 8:18:34

is the clock set to the current time correctly on your server?

How do you check the server’s time?

Anyway if I fixed it later on will the time for the past posts change as well?

There’s certainly no guarantee that your web host has their servers set to your timezone ?? Just adjust the offset until you get the time that you want.

But what if even UTC+14 (maximum) is still 2 hours slower than my time? :O

Okay I contacted my hosting provider already. Anyway if they corrected the problem already, will the time of my posts change? I have the loop set to show the time of posting ??
