  Hello my name is Oliver MorrellI have a website on WordPress called Oliver Morrell SalesI am the administrator and owner of the site, I’ve made a mistake and I need the site to be changed back to what it was before 7pm tonight.

  Here is my problem: I tried changing the link to the website manually at the General Settings:
  The WordPress Address (URL) and Site Address (URL)  was:http://box5913.temp.domains/~olivern5/

  And I tried changing it to a different domain I own:https://www.olivermorrell.com/
  Could you please change the WordPress Address (URL) and Site Address (URL) back to 
  http://box5913.temp.domains/~olivern5/
  for me so I can access the site I made again? I can give any permissions on my end – I just need the site to go back to what it was. Thank you for your help

  Hi, Oliver.
  Your site is not hosted on WordPress.com, but using the open source WordPress.org software at another hosting provider.

  For general help with the version of WordPress you’re using, you can ask the WordPress.org community over at https://wordpress.org/support/forums/

  You can read more about the differences between WordPress.org software and WordPress.com here:

  Cheers.

  Hi Galois, thanks for the clarification.

  Due to the change I made, I can’t access WordPress.org to post on the forum (at the login screen when I enter my email it says Error: There is no account with that username or email address.)

  What is the next step I should take?
