Thanks so much for this tutorial. I was pulling out the little hair I have because I thought I’d have to reinstall my them again. I followed your video and sorted it in 5 mins.

Thank you so much!! and God bless the internet

I seem to be in a unique situation.

1 – I do not have the original files or even a backup of the files from my wordpress.(Can I use my php myadmin?)

2 – I changed the name of my site to a url which I currently own via Godaddy.com

Is there anyway for me to fix this? Can I import my existing wordpress files into my godaddy.com account using godaddy’s wordpress install feature?

brilliant thanks. I was just at the point of deleting everything and starting again when I found the tutorial and fixed it in 2 minutes.

You made my day! Uff..

Hi. I make the same Mistake; I change the URL and searching a little the internet, found the same way to restore everything from the database. I change the url like you said in the video. But the problem is that it shows an Error when I try to login to my blog again. I try to move and solve this in many ways, like uploading the files again (Except the content ones) and the problem is the same. Now I have the 500 internet sever error. And everything is really mess up. Can You help me.

THANK YOU. You’re simply wonderful.

hi! thank you for your video it seems easy now for me to solve my problem.

however, i’m stock in myphpadmin where i dont know how to log in and put everthing about my site. i think from here i can easily solve my problem with the help of your video.

Hello,
Thanks for the video and help. I did the whole thing and the main page is back up. The problem now is that all of my other pages will not show up. all 404. I click the link for view page in the editor and it is 404 too. Did I somehow mess up the other pages when i changed the url? Thanks for your help.

Thank you, thank you thank you!!! Great video, and seriously saved my butt

Hi there, I’m actually having the same problem as Ron. I was able to get the main page back up, but all the other pages do not show up. Would you happen to have any suggestions on what to do? Many thanks, jeff

Hi there! I followed all the steps in your video, however I still cannot login to my blog? What else can I do?
Thanks so much!

Hi there…
I figured it out…there was a misspelled word.
Oops!

Dude thank you sooooo much for this video. I screwed up by changing the url’s and after a month of work I was crapping myself because I could not log in. My local server could and would not load the page. Luckily I now that the files were still there so I knew they were retrievable but it’s stressful when you don’t know the easy fix. This fix was so easy and didn’t require I read pages and pages of 10pt type to fix. Thanks a-million for posting this fix. It was a life saver. Now I need a drink after that scare. Cheers!

Thank you so much for this video. You saved me! I appreciate your tutorial more than this note of gratitude can express.

Thanks so much for this insightful way to dig my self out of the mess I created. It worked perfectly.

You have just saved my life! I love you! It’s so simple when you know what to do.

Thanks! Saved me!

Hi,

I did the exact thing you did in your video when you changed the URL. However, when I log in to my PhpMyAdmin the addresses are correct but I still can’t log in and it displays like yours did-plain screen with no theme.

@Shannon
Not to worry! A silly over look on my behalf. Thanks so much for the video you are a life saver!!!

Hello, I made that same mistake of changing the settings from live ultimate.co -> live ultimate.com. I went into PHPMyAdmin and tried to do the same thing you instructed but for some reason everything is fine (URL’s speaking) Now, I try to go back to correct WP Admin (.co) and when I try to log in with our details, the WP Admin redirects me to .com

Any idea on what this is about?
Thanks

Thank you this is very helpful

you rock thank you for your help!!
