That’s an over reaction. In blogging, you ask about the post. For WordPress, you ask for help in the WordPress Support Forums, not just any blog that talks about WordPress or WordPress.com. That’s the etiquette.

I wasn’t being mean, those are the answers I can give you. Because you are using WordPress.com, you are limited as to what you can put in the blog content area and the sidebar Widgets. There might be a clock but none I’ve heard of will work. Ask on the WordPress.com Forum for specific help on things like this. They are the source.

First, this article is not about putting a clock in your blog.
Second, clocks in blogs only help you, not the reader, so reconsider adding one.
Third, adding a clock to your blog means putting code in for a Widget, Gadget, JavaScript, or otherwise and if you are unfamiliar with HTML and web code, take the advice I give in reason two.

@ Heavens: Daylight savings time is something to worry about only once a year, so don't worry about that, and one hour on or off isn't a big deal. I've been using feature posts for years and love it. You've asked two questions. One, about how WordPress sets the clock. You set the time zone manually, compared to GMT. There is a link next to the time zone feature to help you calculate that number. You may have to play with it a bit if you are in a time zone sensitive area. The other is about future posts, which I adore. While the interface is different in the latest versions of WordPress, the instructions for using future posts can be found in Working Ahead - Future Posts with WordPress - in new versions you change it under the Publish Status Edit link.

I’m new to this so please be patient. Are you saying:
1. When you set up wordpress it defaults to your time zone or GMT?
2. When you write several posts and schedule the posts, the posting clock is set to your default time or GMT?

John Chow explained how he would write several posts and schedule them which I thought was a great way to stay on top of your blog. I’m trying to schedule my blogs to post at 6:30 AM EST without regard to daylight savings time. So my settings in my dashboards should be what? Then when I schedule a post, is my posting clock synchronized with my settings clock?

I have recently been introduced to blogging and am hooked.However I need help in expanding my ideas and structuring the blog. Can someone help? I have also heard of people making money through Adsense, how does this work and can a wordpress.com blog host google adverts? how do you embed the code – where? As u can see I am still very green in this field.

It’s all so much easier to calculate living in England, especially at this time of year when we’re on GMT. I can’t say as I’m too worried about the date and time of posts on my blog — the content isn’t especially time-sensitive. I don’t necessarily post every day; the main content is on a weekly schedule, so anything else is extras extras really. But I do appreciate that for some people it will be incredibly important to be able to say they broke a story first.
