How Do I Change the Timezone in WordPress?

Changing the timezone in WordPress is a breeze. All you need to do is access the Settings panel, click on the Timezone tab, and select the new timezone from the list.

WordPress will then automatically update all of the content and settings based on the new timezone.

If you need to change the timezone on a site that is already live, you will first need to stop the site from running in the old timezone. You can do this by disabling the site’s active timer or by refreshing the page.

Once the site is stopped, you can then change the timezone by editing the wp-config.php file. The following code will enable the site to run in the new timezone:.

define(‘WP_TIMEDATE_ZONE’, ‘America/New_York’);.
