    Hello,

    I was working on my wordpress SETTINGS under GENERAL and by accident I add the “s” letter in front of the http://fileport.be like this (https://fileport.be) I make the mistake to log out and now the search address bar doesn’t allow me to log in because the “s” letter in front of the https://

    I know that I have to change the setting again but were do I find wp-config.php ?

    I can’t get on my website anymore to open that file.

    Thank you for a quick answer.

    Rudy

    Hey, you need to have access to your hosting account to be able to edit wp-config.php.

    If you have a control panel get into it and find file manager, then look for folders with names like public_html, www or your domain name.
    In there you should be able to find your wp-config.php file (in the root of your WordPress installation).

    When you find the file you ‘ll need to add 

    define('WP_HOME','http://Fileport.be');
define('WP_SITEURL','http://Fileport.be');

    just above the “That’s all stop editing line”
    Another way to update your site URL is by editing the DB directly.

    Helo Vagelis,

    thank you for your help, unfortunately it didn’t work.
    Every time when I try to go to the site, Safary gives me following message:

    Safari Can’t Open the Page “https://fileport.be” because Safari can’t establish a secure connection to the server “fileport.be”.

    For the second way, I do not know enough about this stuff to find the DB.
