    How to automatically adjust to daylight savings time in WordPress

    Dave Pinch

    If your WordPress time is not automatically adjusting to daylight savings time, you may have your time zone set to a UTC offset rather than a city name. When set to a city name, WordPress automatically applies daylight savings time for that city.

    Instructions

    1. Sign into your WordPress website with an admin account

    2. From the side menu, select Settings > General

    3. Scroll down to the Timezone setting

    4. If you are set to a UTC offset, click the dropdown and scroll up to the city names

    5. Select a city in your same time zone

      For a list of recommended cities, see a table of cities at How to select the best city for the time zone in WordPress.
