 * Hey everyone! I’ve gotten decent with wordpress though im having some issues.
   I bought a web domain and have it pointing to my servers. Unfortunately it doesnt
   show the domain name that I bought only my server name.
 * I went into the MySQL database and I was trying to edit the domain names used,
   as soon as I did that I come up with an error right away saying its having database
   issues.
 * Do I need to do a reinstallation of WP and have it reinstalled with the domain
   that bought?
 * Thanks to anyone who can help me on this!

 * Did that too Im afraid, and when I edited the functions.php of theme I was using
   only the home page and one other page worked. All the others were broken. I only
   had like 4 pages and 1 post since it was a brand new site. Im afraid Im just 
   giving in.
 * Thanks for the help!
