    I found a solution to the problem. There was a plugin called Stray Random Quotes that was installed on my site. I read on another post that this plugin, when activated, will ‘gray out’ or disable the WordPress url in Settings > General. So I just removed the plugin and I was able to make changes to my urls to make them identical and the problems went away. Thanks to all who responded and tried to help me with my problem.

    Voodoo,

    I did not see any code in the files you mentioned that would change the domain name.

    Thanks Voodoo.

    The site is not really broken as in the site is not running at all. There are just a few annoyances hanging around that I would like solved. The main issue being the 2 different urls in the General Settings.

    Well I will back up the db and try changing the urls.
    I hope it solves my issues.

    Thanks

    Thanks Voodoo.

    I have read the entire document. I just want to know if I do use the database option, and I change the url in the options table, will this have a detrimental effect on the website. Have you or anyone that you know tried this before. And is this a common solution when launching wordpress sites on Media Temple, because I don’t have this problem with Hostgator.

    Thanks for responding Krishna.

    I couldn’t follow those instructions because I cannot edit the WordPress Url from Settings, I could only edit the Site Url.
    So is my next option to go into the database and change the url’s there?
    And if I do, are there any serious repercussions?

    I have been able to set up wordpress installations and launches on my Hostgator account, but I am having trouble with Media Temple. I was just wondering if anyone else had this issue.
