 * Hi Adam
   Happy New Year to you!An update from me. I moved a site a few weeks ago
   whose admin was at /wordpress rather than in the root (hiphopphotography.com).
   I had the same issues as before. Yesterday I moved another site whose admin was
   at /wordpress rather than in the root (janettebeckman.com). I reset Google Site
   Kit, then deactivated it and deleted it from within the site admin. I was able
   to install and connect once I moved the site even though it’s admin had changed
   from /wordpress to the root. I went back and was able to install and connect 
   hiphopphotography.com too.I am not sure if you guys applied a fix, or something
   is different at my end. But my earlier issues appear resolved. Sincere apologies
   if it was me not the plugin.RegardsMike

 * Hi Adam
 * This is not resolved.
 * I can’t share the callback URL because you guys have fixed those sites at your
   end. Site Kit now works with the last set I sent you. Thank you for fixing those.
 * I have 4/5 more sites to move that will have the same issue. I will update this
   ticket with my process and the callback URL next time.
 * Please don’t close it or mark it resolved.

 * Hi Adam
   I will be trying this again at some point.I have already sent video of
   all my steps. Did you guys get it? What was missing? I am not sure what more 
   I can show you and how I can mores imply describe what is happening.
 * Is there any update on resetting the URL at your end for the last set of sites?
 * upstatemetalsales.com
   movementsciencemadesimple.comlaboskdesign.comkarsh.orglinccornell.
   com
 * I’ve tried to give you everything you need. Along the way I have asked where 
   and when the URL Site Kit uses would be reset (based on the admin URL) and I 
   haven’t been given an answer. You guys have requested I do things which break
   wp-admin and make no sense. I have done them, documented it and sent video.

 * Hi Adam
   No. I have not tried amending the WordPress admin site URL before migration.
   Amending the WordPress admin site URL breaks the site unless I move the wordpress
   installation in the webroot.So I either have to amend the wordpress installation
   and then change the WordPress admin site URL, in which case, why is that any 
   different to the migration? I am on the same host, but am amending the wordpress
   file locations and amending WordPress admin site URL. Isn’t that the same in 
   effect as I am doing during a migration. Or, I amend WordPress admin site URL
   without changing the wordpress file location, the site breaks (front end and 
   back) and I can’t migrate via plugin, I have to migrate manually. That might 
   work, but is double the work, might not work, and the site is down during the
   migration. It doesn’t make sense and I still have not heard from you when Site
   Kit might detect the change (surely only if the admin is working), and my gut
   is it still will not work. You have not given any indication of when Site Kit
   updates: the hook, the action it happens on? I can’t see it happening if the 
   site is broken, and I don’t understand why amending the WordPress admin site 
   URL and wordpress file locations before migration is any different to a migration.

 * No problem.
 * I just moved a site and attempted to amend the WordPress admin site URL. I ended
   up with the same issue on the migrated site, the redirect after Google authorizations
   still contains /wordpress/ and the login fails.
   This was my sequence:
 * migrate site to new host (incl google site kit plugin, plugin not reset)
   have
   everything ready at new host for DNS changeamend WordPress admin site URL on 
   old host with DNS pointing at itsite on old host breaks as expected after amending
   WordPress admin site URLamend DNS to point domain at new hostwhen DNS resolved
   and pointing at new host try to reconnect Site Kit – it fails with /wordpress/
   in the redirect URLreset Site Kit on the new host and try to reconnect – it fails
   with /wordpress/ in the redirect URL
 * The current list of sites that need a reset if possible at your end are:
 * upstatemetalsales.com
   movementsciencemadesimple.comlaboskdesign.comkarsh.orglinccornell.
   com
 * Thank you and I appreciate any guidance.

 * Hi Adam
   I am trying to think this through. If I change the WordPress admin site
   URL without changing the location of the files in the webroot, I imagine WordPress
   will stop working. When does Site Kit pickup the change: on change of the WordPress
   admin site URL, or at some other moment? If I change the location of the WordPress
   files, am I not back in the same position (at the same host, rather than a new
   one) where wp-admin is at a new location and Site Kit won’t reset?
 * I am also trying to figure out sequencing of the migration, if I change the WordPress
   admin site URL before migration, and don’t move the files in the webroot, I imagine
   the migration will fail. So I migrate the site, then change WordPress admin site
   URL? Then update the DNS and Site Kit should reset at the new domain?
 * Any guidance appreciated.
 * Thank you.
 * Regards
   Mike

 * Hi Adam
 * You mean in General Settings? The location of WordPress? 
   Can you explain more?
   Where would Site Kit pick up the change from so that when its running at the 
   new path it knows where it is? Why would an amended site on the same hosting 
   and same domain not experience the same things as an amended site on new hosting
   with the same domain?
 * I appreciate the suggestion.

 * Hi Adam
 * Thank you.
 * The main domain remains the same (one did go from from [https://www](https://www)
   to [https://](https://wordpress.org/support/users/bigflannel/replies/?output_format=md))
   but otherwise, the only change is the location of the wordpress install, and 
   therefore the location of wp-admin. It was [https://domain.com/wordpress/wp-admin](https://domain.com/wordpress/wp-admin)
   and is now [https://domain.com/wp-admin](https://domain.com/wp-admin). I am migrating
   to wordpress.com hosting. So much of WordPress core is a symlinked folder I believe.
   The symlink for eveything but the wp-content folder is _wp_. The wp-content folder
   is in the webroot.
 * I am performing the Site Kit reset prior to the migration then run into the issue
   when trying to set it back up on the new host.
 * Regards
   Mike
