I changed my permalinks and broke my dashboard
-
I’m sorry to bother you all, I am very green at this. I know this subject has been dealt with before, by and for people with more knowledge than me, I’m asking for help in baby language please
I had installed WordPress and Woocommerce, spent the whole evening building a site for my wife, then decided (stupidly) to change both of the permalinks. The site disappeared instantly.
I tried changing the permalinks back again on the settings page, no joy.
I navigated away from the settings page and found that the whole WordPress dashboard had been replaced with a 404 “page not found”. Now I’ve even lost access to the settings page, I have no dashboard at all.
I can see the wordpress files and folders in my GoDaddy file manager so I know that the information is largely still there. Perhaps there’s a way to edit one of the files through the file manager page?
Please can someone give me a step-by-step on how to make it work again?
Thank you! Ben
