  Hi all,

  I have published blog posts on this site (https://priteeinmissouri.wordpress.com/).
  However, all the dates displayed on the site is grossly incorrect, and the latest post is even in the wrong year!

  1) I have checked my Settings and ensured that my time zone is correct.
  2) I have tried updating the ‘Date Published’ on ‘Post Settings’ but it still does not display correctly on the site.

  Is there something that I am missing or that I can do to correct this?

  Thanks in advance for your help!

  The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

  Hi teeshirt85,

  Can you check your Date and Time format and make sure your Date format is not set to Custom? I can only duplicate the exact same result if I have my custom date format set to “16 F, 2018”.

  To set your Date format: Setting -> Writing -> Date and Time Format (right under Composing) -> Date Format

  If your Date format is set to Custom, try resetting it to any of the non-custom formats and see if that helps.

  Hi skysthelimit688,

  Wow! I followed your suggestion in changing the custom date format and it works perfectly now!

  Thank you very much!
