Can’t access my dashboard after changing site URL
-
Hi, I changed my site URL in the General Settings to http://www.lefini.shop.
Now I can’t access my site or dashboard. It says the domain isn’t connected to a website yet.Can someone help me? Or could a moderator please reset my site URL to the original lefini.de address so I can log in again?
Thank you!
The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

Hey! That sounds frustrating but I can point you in the right direction.
Just so you’re aware, there are actually two types of WordPress:
1. WordPress.com — the version we host and support.
2. WordPress.org — the self-hosted version, which is what your site is running.Our support is specifically for sites hosted on WordPress.com, so unfortunately, we’re not able to directly help with this issue.
I recommend contacting your hosting provider so they can make the needed changes to restore your site and dashboard access.
If you’re comfortable with editing the site database, you could attempt changing the URL using the steps here: https://developer.wordpress.org/advanced-administration/upgrade/migrating/#changing-the-url-directly-in-the-database
PS: If you’re thinking about moving your site over to WordPress.com after regaining access, to benefit from our managed hosting and premium support, you’re welcome to request a free migration here: https://wordpress.com/support/request-a-free-migration/.
