  • Have you tried something like Velvet Blues or Search & Replace?

    Thanks for the reply Ron. Do you recommended that I reverse/undo everything I had done before and then instead try one of those plugins? (Sorry, I know very little about these sorts of things!)

    Have you double checked your new url’s settings in your GoDaddy control panel to make sure they are set up right?

    If your original url works fine it wouldn’t hurt to undo the wp-config.php changes, and use Search & Replace, but shouldn’t be necessary. This plugin will search out and replace data in your WordPress database, and it can change the url of your install. The wpconfig fix isn’t really the best, but it is a fix.

    Ok, I just triple checked the new url’s settings and double checked the steps they provide for changing the nameservers (link below) and they seem good to me. My original URL isn’t working either, so I haven’t been able to work on anything for nearly two weeks now 🙁

    Update: I spoke with BlueHost and they did something so that my website now works using the original URL, which is progress, but I would like it to be with my new URL.

    I spoke with BlueHost and they were able to resolve the problem.
