Blog is down after changing Settings. Cannot log in.

    I wanted to change the home page for my blog site so that it defaults to the “ABOUT” page. I went into the Settings link and changed the default UR, by adding the /about after the /blog. Big mistake. Now I cannot access my page and keep getting error messages when I try to log in to reset it.

    Whenever I try to log in to my blog site, I get an error message and the url reads: http://www.flightsoffancythemovie.com/blog/about/wp-login.php

    So, I then delete the “/about” and try to re-log in, but the site re-directs me to the http://www.flightsoffancythemovie.com/blog/about/wp-login.php, again.

    I need to get my web page up and running again, and it should default to: http://www.flightsoffancythemovie.com/blog. In the meantime, we have figured out how to default to the About page from the host server, so all I want to do is reset my settings to the original settings.

    Sorry, but I urgently need your help with this. THANK YOU!!!
