#50950 closed defect (bug) (duplicate)

Posts show wrong time when user is in a different time zone than the site's

Description

I'm in GMT+1, my site is configured in GMT-3 time zone — so I'm 4 hours ahead.

WordPress' editor in version 5.5 is showing the post's time as if it was published 4 hours before, example: ​https://d.pr/i/wAw9iV

If I click the post's date/time, it shows the correct time: ​https://d.pr/i/L4TlQd

Just so it's completely clear: that post was published at 11:41AM GMT-3, and that was 3:41PM GMT+1 for me.

So the editor is considering that my time zone should be the post's, and it's then subtracting 4 hours because of the time zone difference. Very weird behavior.

Sorry, I don't know why the ticket was opened twice.

No problem, sometimes the gremlins come out.
