 * On the website state page wordpress shows the critical problem:
    PHP standard
   time zone invalid My timezone in the wordpress settings is Europe/Berlin. When
   I change this to UTC+2, the problem disappears. But I guess now the summertime
   is not acknowledged. What may be wrong?

 * Hi [@eehmke](https://wordpress.org/support/users/eehmke/)
 * Both WordPress and Wordfence do not have a **_“website state”_** page.
 * Both WordPress and Wordfence do not generate a message that says, **_“PHP standard
   time zone invalid”_**
 * This is the support forum for the Wordfence security plugin. Please explain with
   accurate details why you are asking for help here when it appears that Wordfence
   is not involved.

 * Ok it’s the site health page. In german it’s called Seitenstatus. Anyway the 
   problem seems to have disappeared. I will report again if it shows up again.
