It wasn’t a big deal to me for the longest time. When you install WordPress, it defaults to GMT as it’s regular time. Where I’m sitting, my “blog day” started and ended at 5pm every day because I’m 8 hours west of Greenwich, England. It wasn’t a big thing, I didn’t bother to change it for over a year after I moved Bitchspot to it’s new home, but Thursday, I said the heck with it and actually changed my time internally.
And it didn’t work. The blog still clicked over to a “new day” at 5pm as usual. It’s not like everything in WordPress actually works the way it ought to so I shrugged, posted my usual daily posting and walked away.
Then it worked, a full day later. So instead of having a post in Thursday and a post on Friday, I got two posts on Thursday. Not only did it take 24 hours to “correct”, it then went back and changed things retroactively.
Not a big deal, but gee, thanks WordPress.
