  I was attempting to change my domain name from dabsterrealty.com to stacygordon.com. In doing so, I accidentally typed an extra “.com” in the name.

  Now I can no longer access wp-admin to fix it.

  Please help.

  The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

  I guess I should have mentioned that dabsterrealty.com was a functional site that I’d been using for years.

  After my screwup, it seems that everything is looking for something called stacygordon.com.com….which obviously doesn’t exist.

  Hi there!

  Since this is an issue with your self hosted site, you’ll need to contact your webhost about regaining access to your site’s dashboard. They should be able to give you the direct IP address, so you can bypass the URL issue.

  Hi Shawna,

  Thanks for your response. But I want to make sure that I understand.

  I’m trying to get back into the wordpress dashboard (wp-admin) to change the url that I changed via the wordpress admin screen accessed via wordpress.com.

  I just want to confirm that my web host should be able to help me get back into my wp-admin screen on wordpress.com and not you guys?
