03/16/26 — Bug Fixes
Timezone fix for Social Notes title fallback
- Social Notes crossposted to Inkwell were timestamped 4 hours behind the correct local time
- Root cause:
$post->post_dateis already converted to the site’s local timezone but stored as a plain string with no timezone info —strtotime()was interpreting it as UTC, thenwp_date()was converting it again, doubling the UTC offset - Fix: switched to
$post->post_date_gmt(true UTC) withUTCappended so PHP parses it unambiguously, thenwp_date()converts it to the site’s configured timezone in a single clean pass
