Changing URL

  • We imported our site from WordPress.com, and its hosted under a box.temp.domain. We registered a URL with Go Daddy, and just trasnferred it to Blue Host, our hosting platform for our wordpress site. Now we want to change the URL from the temp domain to our registered URL. Is there a way to do this without losing all of our content and/or crashing our site? Not super tech savvy, so hoping there is a relatively simple solution.

  • Hey @stokeddude11

    when you have access to the dashboard, just go to the wordpress settings to change the URL. is this not work, edit the wp-config.php file. think about the hierarchy: wp-config.php > Settings. ??

    if there no define in the wp-config you can add the following code:

    define( 'WP_HOME', 'https://yoursiteurl.com' );
define( 'WP_SITEURL', ‘https://yoursiteurl.com' );

    Thanks a lot – I’m worried that changing the URL will cause me to lose the content or crash the site. Is there a way to make sure that does not happen?

    I am finding a really big difficulty in finding the URL because it was change whenever I made it like I made a URL of the fishing license near me and then their inner link has been automatically changed.
