However, the last few days I’ve had a problem.

I’m not that great at databases but can use the PHPMYADMIN via my webhost to look around and stuff. I’ve tried looking at it and can’t find anything. Nor can I find anything in the Admin areas. * Anyone know where I can look or how I can fix it? It not only sends me to 404 error pages, but it causes my CSS to not load. * Any help is appreciated. * [http://weblog.lokrin.net](http://weblog.lokrin.net) * Lokrin * Thread Starter [lokrin](https://wordpress.org/support/users/lokrin/) * (@lokrin) * [21 years, 5 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/corrupted-database/#post-122774) * I notice that the sample link I put up doesn’t fully show.

Fix your site URL manually: [http://www.tamba2.org.uk/wordpress/site-url/](http://www.tamba2.org.uk/wordpress/site-url/) Then upgrade to WP v1.2.2.

Can someone give me a simple way to fix the url? Such as a database location? I did already comment out the code lines in the wp-login.php file according to someplace I found while following several threads… * Will try to upgrade after I can fix the url. * Thanks * [Kafkaesqui](https://wordpress.org/support/users/kafkaesqui/) * (@kafkaesqui) * [21 years, 5 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/corrupted-database/#post-122795) * In phpMyAdmin: 1. Enter your WordPress database. 2. Go into the `wp_options` table. (prefix may differ, i.e. `blog_` ) 3. Click the Browse tab. 4. `siteurl` is the first record/row; click Edit for that row. 5. Change the `option_value` field to the correct one for your site. 6. Click the Go button. * Thread Starter [lokrin](https://wordpress.org/support/users/lokrin/) * (@lokrin) * [21 years, 5 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/corrupted-database/#post-122799) * Thanks, that was quick and easy. I’d looked through there, but was expecting to see a long url. I didn’t realize that the view truncatedit. * Now, to backup everything and see about upgrading and then try to remember all the little hacks I managed to make. Oy Gevalt! * Considereing I don’t even know what half or even an eigth of them were….
