    Hi! My WordPress blog was working just fine, I wanted to change my domain name. So, in the settings I changed it, and as it was loading, I lost connection. Now, neither my old oasisforchange.com / wp-login.php won’t work and neither will the new one. I don’t know what to do, I’m stuck in limbo! How do I reset, get in to my website! Thank you!

    Hi there,

    It looks like we missed your thread, but a volunteer has flagged it for our attention. Do you still need help with this?

    If you change the URL of a self-hosted site in settings, all you do is break the site and lock yourself out of your dashboard. You will need to contact your hosting provider, Bluehost, for help in fixing this, as we don’t have any access to your self-hosted site’s dashboard with them.

    For future reference, you can find the instruction to correctly update your site’s URL here:
