 * When I use the php <?php echo “Today is: ” . (date(“l M d, Y”) . “
   “;?> anywhere
   in my site the correct date (and time) are reflected. When I use it in a Worpress
   page it returns the next day. I had to work around it using:
 * <?php $yesterday = mktime(0, 0, 0, date(“m”) , date(“d”)-1, date(“Y”)); $tdate
   = getdate($yesterday);
    echo ”   Today is: “.@$tdate[month] .” “.@$tdate[mday].”,”.
   @$tdate[year].”“; echo ”   Day of the year: “.@$tdate[yday].”<hr />”;?>
 * Anybody else experience this?

 * Go to Settings -> General and set the timezone according to server time.
