 * Hell and thank you for coming to read my concern.
 * I have installed GoDaddy as my host for [http://retrochip123.com](http://retrochip123.com)
   and it was up and running….
 * But yesterday I had the option in my general settings to change my url name I
   tried changing it to [http://retrocpcheats.com/](http://retrocpcheats.com/) just
   for a test and now when I go to [http://retrochip123.com/wp-admin/](http://retrochip123.com/wp-admin/)
   or [http://retrocpcheats.com/wp-admin/](http://retrocpcheats.com/wp-admin/) it
   doesn’t work.
 * Please help I am really frustrated and I don’t want to reinstall my website :'(

 * I’m ot entirely sure what you did in your hosts admin panel, but yo cant just
   change your domain name. You’d have to purchase a new one, assuming it’s available.
   Change it back and it should work.

 * Well, I’m not really sure what you did. you CAN’T just change you domain name.
   Just undow whatever you did or call godaddy. Your questions isn’t really a WP
   questions so much that it is a hosting question.
