WordPress URL file name changed

  • Unknown's avatar

    In an attempt to redirect my home page from my non-wordpress site, I accidently changed the name of the home page in the General Settings WordPress Address (URL) input box and the Site Address (URL) and now I’m unable to access any pages within my WordPress site. Is there any way to modify this in the CPanel settings?

    Hello there,
    This is the WordPress.COM support forum. Know that we do not provide support for WordPress.ORG software. That support is found at https://wordpress.org/support/

    We cannot provide accurate assistance to anyone who fails to provide the URL of the exact site they refer to so please do that now.

    We provide support only for WordPress.OM hosted sites and not for WordPress.ORG software installs. We require URLs so we can verify exactly where the site(s) in question are hosted so we can provide correct answers to questions posed, or to direct the 30% of those who are lost and posting to the wrong support forum to correct support forum for their WordPress.ORG software.

    Thanks so much for not posting any WordPress.ORG links here at WordPress.COM, as the content in the CODEX is only for WordPress.ORG software installs and posting wordpress.ORG links here causes confusion.

    There is no database access to wordpress.COM hosted blogs.
