greencode

Thanks for this – that’s exactly the problem I’m faced with but I’ve no idea where I’m supposed to insert that code? It’s on the widgets.php file that the “Display categories widget” resides on but I can’t see any mention of any of the code that it talks about on that site? Any ideas?

Just following up on this – I notice that WP-Affiliate does a similar thing to what I’ve asked.

Hi, apologies for the delay in getting back to you – I don’t seem to be getting instant notifications! Oh well, back to the matter at hand:

If you look in your theme’s root folder you’ll see a file called “header.php”, open this file in a text editor. In between the H1 tags there should be something like this:

“<?php bloginfo(‘siteurl’); ?>”

I simply changed this to:

“my site name dot com”

and that then changes the link. I think you did it through the Settings section in your wp-admin section on WP. That’s what I did and lost the ability to edit or do anything with the blog. If that’s still the case then can you access phpmyadmin through your cPanel? If so do this:

Enter phpmyadmin
> Select your database
> Click browse on the wp-options table
> Edit the siteurl to your previous location.

Hopefully all of that should help you.

I may be going mad but it’s definately not there – I’ve checked on Safari, Camino and even Firefox (which I never use and therefore have never viewed that site before)

Thanks for that – I had to change the options in my old blog to point to the new server.
