Hi All,

I have a site set up on wordpress.com.
site: qctimes.info/nie
wp admin: qctimes.info/nie/wp-admin

I changed it to:
site: qctimes.info/nie/about
wp admin: qctimes.info/nie/about/wp-admin

stupid I know but explanation is below:

I wanted to change my homepage to show relevant information for our non-profit. I had all of the relevant info on an “about” page.
I tried to make an easy step and change the “index” or “admin url” to point to the “about” page.
now I can no longer access the admin area to edit

Is this an easy fix that wordpress can just access my admin area and change it back to qctimes.info/nie and qctimes.info/nie/wp-admin

Thank you I hope I can get some help with this

Yes you need to register at WordPress.ORG to post a request for help – .ORG & .COM help forums are separate and require different login (you can use the same name there as here if it is not in use at .ORG)
