I had the same problem as HELP NEEDED, plus my Blogg couldn’t find the css files and looked bleah. dan.tee’s suggestion worked like a charm for me!! Well, kinda sorta. I logged into my host’s cP, went to the phpMyAdmin section… and that is where the fun began!
This took a lot of searching thru the many different dB’s found there (keeping in mind that I have absolutely NO idea if they were dB’s or not!). I found one under my WordPress folder called wp_options. In there I found a file(??) that had an “option_name” called siteurl. It had the wrong url that was causing me the same problem as HELP… . I made the adjustment, but found that my Blogg was still not up to scratch (a little better visually) AND I still couldn’t login to my WP admin. So, the search went on…
Under the same folder, I found “option_name” home. Again, here was the offending url. Adjustment made and… Bingo! All is well. My Blogg is back (able to read the css files) and I can sign into my WPadmin. whew… BTW, I was able to do all the editing while in the phpMyAdmin, thank you very much!
I know that HELP wants to get that “Under Construction” page to show and that is outside of this noob’s understanding, but maybe my work can help to get you into your WPadmin once more. And a great big Thank You to dan.tee!! Your suggestion worked for this ol’ boy, and I took your warning about going into this blind. There is a lot there and one small mistake…
Right, and keep in mind you techies that my use of the words “file” and “folder” and “dB” may be wrong, but it’s all my interpretations, eh.
