 * Hi!
    I did something stupid, I changed http to https in Settings-> General before
   making any chages to backend and it obviously crashed. How do I regain acces 
   to /wp-admin? :/
 * The page I need help with: _[[log in](https://login.wordpress.org/?redirect_to=https%3A%2F%2Fwordpress.org%2Fsupport%2Ftopic%2Fsite-crashed-after-switching-to-https%2F%3Foutput_format%3Dmd&locale=en_US)
   to see the link]_

 * After some sorting out I managed to get it right, so if anyone has this problem
   in the future You need to get to Your WordPress installation folder and find 
   wp-config.php which will be loose wordpad editable file.
    Adding the code below
   to your wp-config.php file (next to other ‘define’ commands) helps:
 * define(‘WP_HOME’,’[http://your-site.com&#8217](http://your-site.com&#8217););
   
   define(‘WP_SITEURL’,’[http://your-site.com&#8217](http://your-site.com&#8217););
 * where your-site.com is Your domain off course.
    Cheers
