 * I type my WordPress address (url) and site address (url) wrong in the general
   settings and saved them.
 * Now, I can not access my dashboard
 * I am using MAMP as my server on my computer.
 * The error message is
 * The requested URL /holylandphilately.com/wordpress/wp-login.php was not found
   on this server.
 * Where are the URLs located so I can correct them?
    Thank you

 * You can restore your settings without being able to login to your dashboard. 
   You can just edit wo-config.php, normally people use either FTP or your hosting
   management login, add these two lines to your wp-config.php file.
 *     ```
       define('WP_HOME','http://yourdomain.com');
       define('WP_SITEURL','http://yourdomain.com');
       ```
   
 * Then you will be able to login.
    Then you will be able to restore your settings
   in the database. Then remove the two extra lines from your wp-config.php
 * OR you can hack the database settings, details are here:
