 * I tried changing my homepage to a different pre-exisiting page and now the site
   says the page is not found and I can’t make any changes in the backend. I went
   to Settings –> General –> and changed the WordPress address to the new page I
   wanted to go to. Obviously a big mistake. What can I do to make fix this?

 * That article is definitely helpful but when I go to login ([http://sburokerstudio.com/wp-admin/](http://sburokerstudio.com/wp-admin/))
   it just goes to a not found page, ([http://sburokerstudio.com/portfolio/wp-login.php?redirect_to=http%3A%2F%2Fsburokerstudio.com%2Fwp-admin%2F&reauth=1](http://sburokerstudio.com/portfolio/wp-login.php?redirect_to=http%3A%2F%2Fsburokerstudio.com%2Fwp-admin%2F&reauth=1))

 * I’m having a same-problem, and it was caused by changing the link in /dashboard/
   settings/ line3 **“WordPress Address (URL)”** from my domain website to another
   website I have at wordpress.com. This wiped out my access to my domain dashboard.
   
   SQL database is now holding many links which serve to redirect to xxxxxx.wordpress.
   com, and I’ve had to hire my ISP support tech to fix it, which I expect would
   be quick and simple from the dashboard, but… thus far tech has not fixed that
   problem!
 * I’ll be watching for a solution!
