Hello finnerty,

Yes, you can change your timezone setting in the php.ini to any setting you like. Php.ini is there so you can make changes like this to your account without affecting other accounts on the server.

To set your timezone to US East Coast time, simply change the line:

date.timezone="America/Los_Angeles"

to

date.timezone="America/New_York"

This will alter the default timezone for your account. This line is located at the bottom of your php.ini.

Best Regards,
Scott M
