Changed domain in Settings > General

    I have had a domain and website for over 10 years. I have been using one WordPress account to manage that domain for 10 years. I just logged into the WordPress Account for that website, clicked Settings > General > and under ‘Site Address’ I simply deleted the domain name and added a new domain name.

    Now, that website is lost, and I cannot login to the WordPress account for that domain name that I deleted. When I type it, I get redirected to the new domain name that I entered, and there is no WordPress Login for it.

    Please help me undo this mess or regain access of that WordPress account that I was using for the past 10 years. Thank you.

    WP.com: Yes
    Jetpack: No
    Correct account: Yes

    The blog I need help with is: (visible only to moderators and staff)

    @after12teamedia just ignore the spammy answer @thestealingofemily as it is utterly irrelevant.

    First things first: what is the URL of your site?
