Time zone change

Hi Shalor this is Alexis from the POLI126AA Class at UCSD. How do I change the timezone settings to UTC time instead of GMT time?Im having difficulty finding local authority and editing the source code?

Set Default Timezone

$wgLocaltimezone = "UTC"; date_default_timezone_set( $wgLocaltimezone ); — Preceding unsigned comment added by Amotonaga (talk • contribs) 22:26, 13 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]

This is a good question! You can change the time zone via your preference page (Special:Preferences), and going to the appearance tab. Scroll down until you see "Time offset". You will want to select "America/Los Angeles" from the list, as this will change the settings to your time zone. Shalor (Wiki Ed) (talk) 16:20, 14 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]
