    The home page was a comment so I thought that by making the blog link to that page it would be the home page was apparently a bad idea because now the site CP is inaccessible and the rest looks like no CSS is applied. Is there a way to change that setting externally?
    Thanks

  • i have the same problem… Please somebody help

    You can change the URL in a variety of ways, hopefully that article can help some.

    All right I managed to go the login screen again. but it wont redirect me to the dashboard, instead it always keeps me at the login panel when I try to login…

    I think ill give it a try again tomorrow. Thanks for helping anyways ??

    This doesn’t really address my issue. I did not move my folders I just changed the pathing in the CP. What file do I need to edit so it is not always looking for https://paduidefender.com/?page_id=2
    So I can’t access the control panel admin area….
    I tried recopying the index.php, .htaaccess, wp-settings, wp-config but it still shows like there’s no CSS and I can’t access the control panel
    Thanks much for your help!

    WordPress is already in the root but it was showing a comment as the front page so I thought changing the link to the home page would make it call the home page…

    As that article states, down at the bottom of it is a link for general URL solutions

    That’s how you change the URL if you don’t have access to your panel

    Thank-you!
    I changed the config file but that wouldn’t let me log in so I changed the functions file in the theme and that did it!

    Now, how do I make the home page a page I created but I will open a new threrad.

    Just go to settings->readin and set that page as your static front page

    Don’t forget to make a new page, for your blog posts, and set that as your posts page
