Matomo automatically uses the same timezone as configured in WordPress. To change the timezone follow these steps:

  • Log in to your WordPress admin dashboard
  • Go to « Settings -> General »
  • Change the timezone
  • Save the change

The timezone is often applied immediately. However, in some cases it can take up to a day. In this case you can trigger an immediate sync of the timezone by going to « Matomo Analytics -> Diagnostics -> Troubleshooting » and then clicking on the « Sync site » button.
