    Hi Kadsy,

    Humm hard to say to be honest. Could I have a link to your RSS feed? I’d like to compare the date in there with the date on your site. We don’t do anything fancy with dates, it’s just the standard get_the_modified_date() function.

    In the WP admin, if you go to Settings -> General, could you take a screenshot of the Timezone section and upload it to https://prnt.sc and post the link as well please?

    Thanks

    Hi Kadsy,

    Thanks for this. I’ve been doing some investigating I think you’re right, we pass the local date to Facebook rather than the GMT date. The post time isn’t normally shown on IA so it doesn’t normally matter but in your case the difference is quite large and it’s pushing it into the next day.

    We’ve got a new version coming out mid-next week, I’ve already fixed this and applied it to that release if you don’t mind waiting till then?

    Thanks for telling us about this!! I’m going to mark this as resolved, if you need anything else please just let me know!!

    Thanks
