The last discussion on this appears to be a few years old. The current Wordpress rev is now 4.8.1. I just noticed the system time was off by an hour. IIRC, WP had a checkbox to adjust for daylight saving. Has this feature been removed? Aside from setting a reminder, is there a simple way to implement this?

If you head to Settings->General in the WordPress Dashboard you can select a timezone. For example mine is set to London and states:

Universal time (GMT) is 2017-08-07 15:46:29. Local time is 2017-08-07 16:46:29.

This timezone is currently in daylight saving time.
Standard time begins on: 29th October 2017 2:00 am.
