Incorrect Posting Time Displayed

    I am posting on both my app and the website but on my blog it shows my posts as posting a day late even though they are immediately available to be commented on and have been. How can I fix the displayed posting time to be correct? My app shows the correct time in my admin section but not on the actual posts that are available to view.

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

    Hi there,
    You can reset your date and timezone.

    The default timezone is UTC time. You can reset your timezone here > Settings > General. There you select the closest city to you in the same timezone in the drop-down menu and then click “save changes”.

    Then go to > Dashboard > Posts > All Posts
    hover over the title of your post and click the “edit” link.

    I know you are not scheduling a post but I think looking at this image will be helpful: http://en.support.files.wordpress.com/2014/02/publish-immediately-edit.png?w=688
    Click the Edit link in the Publish module and you will be able to change the datestamp and timestamp on posts you have already published. Then click “update”.

    Hi there,

    As Timethief mentioned, you can update the timezone for your blog itself in the blog’s general settings. Here’s a direct link to that page:

    Please let me know if I can do anything more to help with that. :)
