WordPress domain issues

  • Hi there,
    I’m not sure if I’m missing something here.

    I’ve got my WordPress site hosted at 176.32.230.3/oldewatermill.co.uk and the domain oldewatermill.co.uk has it’s nameservers to direct to that hosting but when I go to oldewatermill.co.uk/wp-admin, it directs to the one with the IP address at the beginning.

    Do I need to just update the URL in the WordPress settings?

  • Hello Tommyleyland,

    So the first step would be to go to Settings->General and then adjust the “WordPress Address (URL)” and “Site Address (URL)”.

    Occasionally there may be problems still. If that persists take a look at this information.

    Add this to functions.php.

    update_option( 'siteurl', 'https://example.com' );
update_option( 'home', 'https://example.com' );

    Put this at the top of your .htaccess file.

    # BEGIN WordPress
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /
RewriteRule ^index.php$ - [L]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule . /index.php [L]
</IfModule>
# End WordPress
