    Hey all,

    I am using a test WordPress for my site (www.thecollectiveprojectinc.com) and installed a WordPress at http://www.thecollectiveprojectinc.com/test. However, I was futzing in the “General” settings trying to set the test homepage and I think I may have misspelled the site source or some other small typo. Now when I log into http://www.thecollectiveprojectinc.com/test/wp-admin, it only says “Nothing found for Test Home” and kicked me out. I can’t log in at all!

    Has anyone had this issue? How do I fix through the backdoor so I can get back into my WP? Any help is appreciated.

    You’ll have to go into your hosting control panel and get into the database from phpMyAdmin.

    From here, browse the database tables for wp_options.

    In here, you’ll see tables for home url and site url. You will have to update the correct info here and save. Your site will then come back.
