    help! I'm transitioning my blog from bostonbeerguy.com to beerudite.com. I set up domain pointing so that both names go to the same host, but I messed up bad and put in a type for both the siturl and blogname -- somehow I put in "beerudite.com.com" instead of "beerudite.com". I went and changed them in the database, but the site is still unusable! http://beerudite.com and http://bostonbeerguy.com both show the content without the theme, and I can't get to the admin section to change it! http://beerudite.com/wp-admin and http://bostonbeerguy.com/wp-admin both seem to redirect to beerudite.com.com!

    Help! I think I need to manually rebuilt the site somehow?

    When in the database - did you follow this tutorial?

    You have to change 2 values!

    oh, wow! I didn't know to delete the contents of wp-content/cache. Did that and it's all set.

    Thanks for the timely and accurate response!
