I’m teaching a class today until 2pm, so I won’t be here in an hour. I’m hoping to catch up with you when you are available. I emailed you… Thanks, I appreciate it.

I’m thankful for any help. I’ll email you.

Thanks so much – I just emailed you. I have full backups of everything…

I restated the question, whatever I did was before I came here for advice.
I understand the ambiguity of the term “moving” but it was unclear to me at first.

My question is this now:
1. I tried changing the above as per the instructions.

I added the two lines to the functions.php theme file – no help

In the wp-config.com file, there are many places that use the word
Define

It is unclear to me why step 1 didn’t work and where to put in define(‘RELOCATE’,true) as there are many places in the config file which use the word define.

I am not sure the exact url to log into after this task is done. By “wp-login.php” do they mean that literally or do they mean go to my url wp-admin? This is confusing me a bit.

Edit the wp-config.php file.
After the “define” statements, add this new one:
define(‘RELOCATE’,true);
Go to the wp-login.php page in a web browser.
Login as per normal —

When the RELOCATE flag is set to true, the siteurl (NOT the home setting) will be automatically updated to whatever path you are using to access the login screen. This will get the admin section up and running on the new URL, but it will not correct any other part of the setup. Those you will still need to alter manually.

You should remove the additional line after the site is up….

Is there someone who can help me reinstate my site?
How would I contact them?
Thanks

Perhaps I was not clear – I was not moving WordPress. I made my WordPress site into a static wordpress web site. I was not getting any content on the 1st page after I upgraded to 2.6. I went to fix this problem, but ended up going to the “Settings” tab and by mistake I renamed the path. WordPress address (URL) and/or Blog address (URL)
I have done restores from backups, uploaded the new 2.6 something, but I can’t seem to find the place to change the address back.

When I saw this error, I put in “./the-auction-specialist/wp-blog-header.php” in the index.php file, but it didn’t work.

Below is the error message I get when I go to the site htpp:/the-auction-specialist.com

Warning: main(./the-auction-specialist/wp-blog-header.php) [function.main]: failed to open stream: No such file or directory in /home/auction/public_html/index.php on line 17

and when I go to https://the-auction.specialist.com/wp-admin I get:
but not sure how to change this to what?

Do I go into index.php and change line to what exactly? There was no line 17…
Do I go into wp-includes and change what exactly on line 43?
Do I need to change something in the database?

Thanks, error message below
