  So my site is http://www.annaleerigdon.com. I changed the URL very stupidly (no idea what i am doing) and im locked out.

  I saw online that i need to get into my c-panel, not sure how to do that because my url/cpanel doesn’t go anywhere.

  So i changed the file in Cyberduck, adding back in my URL per the internet’s advice.

  Now im REALLY locked out.

  any advice? i just want to reclaim that domain and move it elsewhere, I’m not even super worried about the data on that site! I have a new site and i want to free that domain name. Its purchased through godaddy and ‘hosted’ by webfaction, i think?????? Someone, please, help.

  It appears your WordPress site is a non WordPress.COM hosted one, hosted at squarespace.com using DNS from GoDaddy.com.

  To change where your domain points to head over to GoDaddy.com to make the changes you require.

  If you need more help with this, your query will get better tailored support over on the WordPress.ORG’s support forum where there will be people who can help with your WordPress.ORG site.
  For more info on the differences in case it’s not clear: difference between .COM & .ORG sites .

  Hope this helps!
