I was trying to set the URL for my blog to the subdomain address under Admin -> Settings -> General. Once I made the change, my blog won't load (gets stuck in a url loop) and I can't log in to my admin panel. It seems an extra "/" has been added in and is being populated via the database, preventing me from getting in to fix it. I tried hardcoding the proper URL in the 'options-general.php' file and uploading it to my server, but it doesn't seem to be working. Does anyone know how to properly edit that specific file to designate had URL instead of having the PHP take care of it? Heck, any ideas would be great, I was getting ready to go live!
Thanks in advance.

Resolved the issue. Rather than trying to hardcode the proper URL into the PHP file, I went into the database and changed the info there. BLOG SAVED!

hey, i think I'm having this same issue, I tried to change the url of my blog in the admin settings and now I cannot get back into the admin page, I just keep louping around between the original url and the one I tried to change it to, can you explain how you were able to correct yours?
thanks
Try the following but BACKUP your database first.

Otherwise you would need to manually edit your database using mysqladmin.
