If I undertsood you correctly, please try following steps:

Logon as admin or whatever is your admin user. Click on Settings tab on bottom left side. You will see General Settings Page. There in the following text boxes, put the following values :

WordPress address (URL) : the domainname you want to use
Blog address (URL): the domain name you want to use

Currently these are my settings :
WordPress address (URL) : https://vikasranjan.com/blog
Blog address (URL): https://vikasranjan.com/blog

Good Luck

I use justhost.com . They are UK based and their support has been good so far.

Thanks Shane for posting the link. I am finally able to fix the issue.
I went through all the steps eventually the Change url step was the culprit.

I looked at the value defined in siteurl field for wp-options table . It was incorrectly pointing to http:/www./vikasranjan.com/blog whereas the correct url for the blog is https://vikasranjan.com/blog. I simply modified the value for siteurl to the correct url and I was able to fix the issue. Trust me it was such a big pain but finally I am out of it.

Thanks a lot Shane and others for helping me in fixing this issue.

Vik

Tried that too, didn’t work

Can anyone help please?

yes. it just refreshes

Alism,
Thanks to your help and Please ignore my previous email.

I am finally able to fix the issue I was having with url redirection. When I try to log on to my blog, it directs me to the correct url.

I also used the emergency script to reset the password and got a confirmation email from the word press administrator with the password which I rest. But when I log on with the new password, it still doesn’t log me in.

Please advice.

Thanks Alism for the help.
As you have provided the below mentioned solution:
1) Edit wp-config.php

It should be possible to fix the site URL using a new feature –

Add these two lines to your wp-config.php, where “example.com” is the NEW location of your site.

define(‘WP_HOME’,’https://example.com’);
define(‘WP_SITEURL’,’https://example.com’);

I think if I need to edit wp-config.php , I need to logon first. As I mentioned earlier , I dont know the logon credentials. As per the url you provided , it asks to first logon to admin penal. How do I logon to admin penal when my credentials arent working?

Sorry for the trouble. I am really struck at this point and not able to find any solution.
