  When I publish a post, it shows up on my blog as published tomorrow. For instance, today is 3/11 and my blog says the post I published today was published on 3/12. My calendar widget does the same thing.

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

  Go to My Sites > WP Admin > Settings > General. Look at the Timezone section. To the right, the current date and time (eg. UTC time is 2016-01-05 10:37:23) are displayed. If that doesn’t match up with your local date/time, select the appropriate option from the dropdown. The easiest way is to choose a city that’s in your timezone. Click “Save Changes” at the bottom of the page. Look back at the timezone section and it will now include your local date/time.

  If you don’t see the WP Admin navigation link, add “/wp-admin/” to your site url in the address bar so it looks this: http://michven.wordpress.com/wp-admin/

  Thank you! For some reason I didn’t know how to get to the wp-admin page.
