 * Please please help!!! I have done all of the setup of my web stuff all on my 
   own. I bought a new domain name and tried to switch it over by myself like a 
   complete moron. I went to settings>general and typed in the new domain. NOW I
   can’t even get back to my Dashboard to fix it. I am completely freaking out an
   almost in tears. My new website and branding is supposed to launch on the 1st.
   Does anyone know how to fix this? From now on I will not attempt this on my own!
   I’m almost in tears, as I have spent countless hours and quite a bit of money
   on my site. Please tell me there’s a fix for this.

 * The problem is that there are still references to the old address within your
   database.
 * You’ll need to log into your host’s cpanel (where you created the database). 
   There, you should have an option called phpmyadmin. If you follow that it will
   show you want is in your database. Do a search for the old address (don’t include
   the www. of the address) and replace it with the new address.
 * Best,
