  I changed the wordpress address & site address to a website I had redirected to my website and I can no longer access the dashboard to correct it. I then somehow was able to turn off the jet pack plug in which stopped word press from following the site. I have no idea how to fix and I spend the last 2 days updating and modifying it.

  Hi there,

  You’re using the free WordPress software, as opposed to hosting on WordPress.com, so you’d need to visit the forums at https://wordpress.org/support/ or contact your host for additional help.

  However if you accidentally changed the site URL, you can follow this guide to correct it through the database:
