Website lost after changing primary domain
-
Hello,
I used to manage the website http://www.thesensitivemovement.com from WordPress using my single domain hosting plan from Bluehost.
Recently I’ve purchased a new domain (saritamartinez.com), and I wanted to use the same content that I had in my old domain with my new domain, and later do just a few modifications.
So in my WordPress dashboard I edited my primary domain to saritamartinez.com. Apparently this messed everything up and now I cannot do anything at all:
– There’s no content associated with that domain yet, so every time I try to open my WP admin, it gets stuck.
– WP does not recognise my previous site thesensitivemovement.com anymore, so I cannot access it, or change anything, and it’s not active/live.
– WP does not recognise my hosting plan, so every time I try to change something it asks me to buy a new plan (which I don’t need because I already have one with bluehost)I don’t know how to get out of here as I cannot access/manage my old site anymore nor make any changes to my new domain.
I would like to manage again the content of my existing site (thesensitivemovement.com), and eventually migrate it to the new domain saritamartinez.com. What would be the easiest route?
Should I rather build a new site for the new domain and make the transfer once each domain has its own site?
Please help! Many thanks!
