  Hi,

  Did you try to change your timezone ?
  You can do this by doing the following ..

  1. log in as admin into your dashboard. You can do this by going to this link https://enlightenedbyashley.wordpress.com/wp-admin/

  2. Once you are there -> under ‘Some helpful resources’ title on right hand side -> click on ‘general settings’.
  3. Follow the directions of setting the timezone from the below link … under “TimeZone”.

  Hope this helps.

  @vijjisite –

  Once you are there -> under ‘Some helpful resources’ title on right hand side -> click on ‘general settings’.

  I can’t find this “some helpful resources” you mention in my own WP Admin. Maybe newer sites/accounts have something different? Can you share a screenshot?

  @enlightenedbyashley – the direct link to change your site’s time zone settings in the WP Admin dashboard is at https://enlightenedbyashley.wordpress.com/wp-admin/options-general.php

  Sure, I can provide a screen shot.
  Can you please tell the url for posting screen shots ? I saw that on few posts but cannot recall.

  Although, the link you provided is more straight forward. I will update my notes.

  Thanks

  hi @vijjisite – it looks like the “Welcome to WordPress.com” module in the WP Admin dash is a feature of new account sites. Thanks for sharing it. :)
