   HELP!

   My ability to login has gone! I think it's because I changed (within Settings) both the WordPress Address (UL) and Site Address (URL) from what it was "WordPress1" to something else "NewName1".

   Now, when I try to login mydomain.com/wordpress1/wp-login.php I get a login page (but it's text only - not the usual wordpress graphics) and then when I enter my uname and p/w in the address bar it diverts to mydomain.com/NewName1/wp-login.php and gives me a "page not found error".

   If I try and login straight away to mydomain.com/NewName1/wp-login.php it gives me the same error page.

   I am positive this is because I changed the URL in the Dashboard earlier.
   Please Help!
   Thanks
   HK

   Thanks. I managed to speak to my hosting company and they advised changing the folder name to what I had changed the url to and this worked!

   Thanks for the great link though.
