Wrongly Changed my URL

  • Unknown's avatar

    I accidently tried to change my URL from throughbrislens.com to theyrenotforus.com
    Of course, now the site isn’t loading and I’m unable to go to the Admin page.
    Would you be able to either change the URL for me or just put it back to the way it use to be?

    Thank you!

    I also read somewhere to disconnect the jetpack and try to reconnect. I don’t think I did that correctly. I have no access to anything at this point.

  • Hi there,

    Changing the domain on a stand-alone WordPress site like yours has to follow a specific process. You can find the documentation for that process here.

    https://wordpress.org/support/article/changing-the-site-url/

    However, many hosting providers have their own process for this. So depending on your setup, you might be able to fix this yourself using those instructions. If not, please contact your hosting provider directly for help.

    Jetpack has nothing to do with this – all Jetpack does is connect your site to your WordPress.com account so you can manage some aspects of it using our tools. Disconnecting Jetpack only has the result that you can no longer access the site from our end, and won’t change anything regarding which domain the WordPress software thinks it should point to.

    You’ll only be able to reconnect Jetpack once the site is online and loading at the correct domain again. You’ll do that by logging into WP-Admin directly, and then click on Jetpack in the menu there to reconnect.
