  I’ve used WordPress for several blogs without problem, but this time I’m getting an issue that I can’t figure out.

  I set up/created my new blog hosted here:
  http://www.nolacreative.com/unvisiteddallas/wordpress/

  The theme was in place and everything was working fine. When I changed the URL of the site to http://www.unvisiteddallas.com, it threw off all the settings and all formatting disappeared. It also does not allow me to make edits or visit any of the pages due to the redirect issues.

  Only solution I’ve found for this is to reset the wp-config file and setup the site again, but then I lose all of my files. Any ideas for what can be done to fix this?

  You are posting to the wrong support forum. We cannot help you here at WordPress.com as we run on different software and that’s not a free hosted WordPress.com blog. The only blosg we provide support for are free hosted WordPress.com blogs. You must post to the support forum the support bot is pointing to > http://wordpress.org/support/

  Make friends at WordPress.ORG

  The site you are asking about does not seem to be hosted on WordPress.COM so you need to make friends over at WordPress.ORG the keepers of the software you are using.
