In reply to: HostGator Domain Change ProblemsHi guys!
Thanks for your responses. I have my issue resolved thanks to an awesome HostGator Tech. I am still not quite sure what she did to make it work but I can now access my WordPress dashboard. Unfortunately I have to start all over. Hopefully I can just use my WP files I backed up…. !
This is the chain of events getting my site “back up”:
– Apparently my site and home url were still showing lapetiteidea.com (previous domain)
so she updated it to sassafrasink.com inside of the phpmyadmin.– She disabled my plugins.
– Changed my theme to WP default
– Tried some other themes.
– None of these steps worked.
– Finally she Re-Installed WordPress using QuickInstall
What happened is when I moved the domain as primary I should have installed the WordPress on the root. However yI had a folder for sassafrasink.com. That is what the tech told me but I still dont quite understand what she meant by that. I am just thankful I can access my dashboard.
This is the link she gave to me to help me understand what went wrong:
