   Hi, I changed my url thesuperslice.com/blog to thesuperslice.com, a warning message came up telling me that this may cause my permalink to break & I decided to be stupid & hit ok. Now when I try to access my blog manager, I get an error message saying, "not found - The requested URL http:// was not found on this server." My blog still runs fine & all the pages load ok. Except I cannot access anything. Please help me.
   Thanks

   thanks for your reply. I inserted the following code into my functions.php:

   update_option('siteurl','http://example.com/blog');
   update_option('home','http://example.com/blog');

   this is what the code looks like after i inserted it. I am not sure if this is the right place its suppose to go. my blog manager is still not loading. by the way, i am using yahoo webhost, I hope that does'nt complicate things even more.

   <?php
   if ( function_exists('register_sidebar') ){
   register_sidebar(array(
   'name' => 'leftsidebar',
   'before_widget' => '',
   'after_widget' => '',
   'before_title' => '<h4>',
   'after_title' => '</h4>',
   ));

   }
   ?>update_option('siteurl','http://thesuperslice.com');
   update_option('home','http://thesuperslice.com');

   I also tried it with adding the /blog at the end.

   update_option('siteurl','http://thesuperslice.com/blog');
   update_option('home','http://thesuperslice.com/blog');

   Change your site url then run the following in your mySQL

   UPDATE posts SET post_content = REPLACE(post_content, 'OLD.URL.GOES.HERE', 'NEW.URL.GOES.HERE');
   UPDATE posts SET guid = REPLACE(guid, 'OLD.URL.GOES.HERE', 'NEW.URL.GOES.HERE');
