 * Hello [@jadolya](https://wordpress.org/support/users/jadolya/)
 * Thanks for reaching out about your `article:published_time`. GMT (Greenwich Mean
   Time) and UTC (Coordinated Universal Time) display simultaneously. Storing time
   in UTC and using UTC for transmitting date & time information is generally considered
   good practice. UTC is the new GMT
 * **To answer your question**, you cannot change the timezone from UTC to GMT because
   there is no time difference between Coordinated Universal Time and Greenwich 
   Mean Time.

 * Hello [@jadolya](https://wordpress.org/support/users/jadolya/)
 * Please navigate to _WordPress > Settings > General > Timezone_ and choose either
   a city in the same time zone as you or a UTC (Coordinated Universal Time) time
   offset.
