As I started typing this forum entry at 10.30pm UTC on 4th September, I opened one of our clients&#8217; websites and the &#8220;Core update interval&#8221; time showed a random &#8220;4:29am&#8221; when we had previously set it as &#8220;3am&#8221;. The &#8220;Theme update interval&#8221; and &#8220;Plugin update interval&#8221; still showed &#8220;3.15am&#8221; and &#8220;3.30am&#8221; which were the times set by us. However, on the <strong>Status<\/strong> tab, the next scheduled core update shows as scheduled for 6.29pm on <strong>6th<\/strong> September (I assume that&#8217;s in the local timezone AEST?) whereas the next plugin and theme update show as being scheduled for 5.15pm and 5.30pm on <strong>5th<\/strong> September.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n","protected":false},"template":"","class_list":["post-19012086","topic","type-topic","status-publish","hentry"],"jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/wordpress.org\/support\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/topic\/19012086","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/wordpress.org\/support\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/topic"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/wordpress.org\/support\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/topic"}],"version-history":[{"count":2,"href":"https:\/\/wordpress.org\/support\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/topic\/19012086\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":19012091,"href":"https:\/\/wordpress.org\/support\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/topic\/19012086\/revisions\/19012091"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/wordpress.org\/support\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=19012086"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
