   Hello all,

   I had a wordpress installation at a URL and I have just moved it to a new one.

   WHen I try to login it says the password is wrong and that it should send me a new one. It sends the new password link but when I click on it it says that the password isnt valid. The main problem with this is that whilst doing this it changes the URL to the old one.

   Where in my wordpress files can I change to url's? GIven I cant login Ill have to do this directly in the files via FTP.

   Sorry if this is a little unclear.

   If someone can tell me which files store all the urls then I think I can fix it.

   Many thanks in advance
   Nathan

   Thanks for the rapid response.

   I solved it with this post, I went into the database and changed the old url from there:

   The only thing now is that my images dont appear. I have run Search & Replace and updated the Permalinks but to no avail. Probably something silly.
