    Hi – I updated the URL in seejanefoundation.org to leanneborghesi.com, and now both sites are down. Seejanefoundation.org is redirecting, and I can’t change it back. (I’m using seejanefoundation.org as a staging site to develop a new site, but am not remotely ready to make it live!) What can I do to correct this? Is there a secret back door to access the admin pages for seejanefoundation.org? Thanks so much.

    If you are comfortable accessing the database and making changes there, you can manually update the URL.

    If you don’t feel comfortable with that, you can also connect to your site using SFTP or FTP and add the following lines to your wp-config.php file:

    define('WP_HOME','https://seejanefoundation.org');
define('WP_SITEURL','https://seejanefoundation.org');

    There is also a page with more information on changing the site URL.
