 * Hello,
 * I ran a site NYKnicksNow.com, I am now attempting to switch it to TheKnicksWall.
   com. I have both registered and have switched the domain and hosting and everything.
 * When you go to TheKnicksWall.com all of my posts show up and everything seems
   to work.
 * However, I cannot login to the dashboard. Everything on the site works except
   for logging into wordpress.
 * What do I do?

 * You have to change the domain in the database. Try this: [http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/change-wp-url/](http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/change-wp-url/)
 * I haven’t used it myself but it should work.

 * I’ve already made the change and I cant login to WordPress. Is there any other
   way to fix this?

 * There’s two places in the ‘wp_options’ table that need to be changed. The ‘siteurl’
   and ‘home’.
 * If you’ve already done that and still having an issue, maybe get back to us with
   the URL to your blog and will try having a double check on it.

 * You have to make sure you changed all links referencing your old domain to your
   new one. In your login form ([http://www.theknickswall.com/wp-login.php](http://www.theknickswall.com/wp-login.php))
   the `action` attribute is still being sent to your old domain, `<form method="
   post" action="http://nyknicksnow.com/wp-login.php" id="loginform" name="loginform"

 * Oooops yeah 😛 Never noticed he had already posted a link to his site. But yeah
   look like it’s all fixed up now I think.
