    Hi All,
    I was exploring the various settings on my dashboard setting page and I inadvertently changed the address from https://prashantmishra.net to https://prashantmishra.net

    While I realize it’s a mistake, but now, I am unable to even log-in to revert the change that I made. Each time I attempt to login and/or try any link, I land on a “404 Not found” page.

    Can someone suggest how I can rectify this? Thanks!

  • Dear prashantpvm,

    Are you able to get to your WP-Admin page? To me it seems that it is functioning and that you should be able to login.

    When does the 404-happen?

    Kind regards,

    Dear CS-WordPress – Thanks for checking back and helping out. I fixed the problem yesterday. It took me a some time to research but the solution was fairly simple and I found it on this forum itself.

    I used the ‘cpanel’ entry that was given to me when the site was hosted. Once in, I went to file manager and edited the wp-config.php file with the following lines just after ‘<?php’ at the beginning of the file:

    define(‘WP_HOME’,’https://prashantmishra.net&#8217;); define(‘WP_SITEURL’,’https://prashantmishra.net&#8217;);

    Save. Build. Log out.

    Then I went back to the site to login as admin. Which it allowed this time. Checked dashboard->settings->general to see if change is reflecting. It was and that’s about it. ??
