thanks for helping, I now get
Internal Server Error
The server encountered an internal error or misconfiguration and was unable to complete your request.
Please contact the server administrator, webmaster@couponconnectionidaho.com and inform them of the time the error occurred, and anything you might have done that may have caused the error.
More information about this error may be available in the server error log.
Additionally, a 500 Internal Server Error error was encountered while trying to use an ErrorDocument to handle the request.
i used the first method
Edit wp-config.php
It is possible to set the site URL manually in the wp-config.php file.
Add these two lines to your wp-config.php, where “example.com” is the correct location of your site.
define(‘WP_HOME’,’http://example.com’);
define(‘WP_SITEURL’,’http://example.com’);
do i need to copy or move all the files to the root directory?
I think you may have made a mistake when adding those lines to your wp-config.php file. do you have an unedited backup copy?

I suggest you use the functions.php method next time but do be very careful that are not inadvertently deleting anything when you add your lines.
