Have you ever gone into WordPress and changed the URL in the settings area only to find you couldn’t login anymore or load your site? Never fear! Today’s question from @laurenthedark asked this on Twitter so here’s your video Lauren:
Steps
- Sign into cPanel
- Go to Databases > phpMyAdmin
- Choose your database on the left (you can verify which one by looking in your wp-config.php file via ftp)
- Go to **_options (the default is wp_options but you may have changed your prefix)
- The SiteURL will most likely be the 2nd row and you will click the pencil to the left to edit
- Edit the “option_value” box to reflect your correct website address and hit “go”
- You will get a green confirmation that it was successful
