    Hi,

    Wondering if anybody could help me here.
    Yesterday I was trying to redirect my wordpress to my websites main domain.
    I only changed the
    http://www.example.com/wordpress
    to http://www.expamle.com
    I instantly got an error. Unable to undo my change though.
    With the result, that I can't login anymore.
    My blog seems to be online but without any graphics or photos.

    Does anybody can help here?
    Thanks
    Davinia

    @ esmi: Thank you so much for your fast reply

    Thing is, I've tried changing the site manually.
    If I now go to my website, which should be located under
    http://www.daviniadesign.com/wordpress

    I get this notification:
    The page isn't redirecting properly
    Firefox has detected that the server is redirecting the request for this address in a way that will never complete.

    Check what urls you used. Looks like you may have used http://www.daviniadesign.com/blog

    Yes, I tried that yesterday and then removed it.

    I tried to Edit wp-config.php - no help
    changed my functions.php - no help

    I'm just clueless.
    And abova all it drives me crazy not bein able to fix it.
    What if I thew everything from my ftp and reuploaded wordpress.
    Would that help?

    I don't think you removed it fully. Or you didn't change it back to http://www.daviniadesign.com/wordpress properly.

    Would that help?

    No. The issue is within your database.

    update_option('siteurl','http://daviniadesign.com/wordpress');
    update_option('home','http://daviniadesign.com/wordpress');

    Yes. And check that you don't have anything for WP_HOME or WP_SITEURL in wp-config.php.

    Ok,

    Tried this.
    I did had something in the the wp-config.php.
    I've deleted that.
    Now the login page comes up (which didn't before) but I still can't login.
    I also saw that I have a 404.php file listed in my Graphene theme since last night...
    Should that be there?

    Actually the site urls are now pointing at http://daviniadesign/wordpress - ie without the 'www'. Want to try setting up the site urls again?

    Oh my God!!!
    You are the best.
    Thank you so much....
    The site is up again!

    Is there anyway I can help you?
    I really really appreciate your help. Seems after all I was a donkey staring at the same mistake over and over again without seeing...

    Sometimes it takes a fresh pair of eyes to see the problem. :-) If you want to repay the favour, see if there's a post you can answer somewhere on the forum.
