Cannot log into WP admin panel

  • I cannot log onto my WP admin panel and I think my site is screwed up now. We just changed over from using a subdomain mirror site (www.jamesriverwriters.dreamhosters.com) to the actual domain (www.jamesriverwriters.org) and I deleted the mirror site w/o changing the URLs under “General Settings.” Is there anything I can do?

  • Hi James

    I think the only way to change this is by manually editing the MySQL database. A quick way I’ve got round this before is via the below

    1. Export a copy of the MySQL database to your computer
    2. Make a duplicate copy so you have an original – for safety!
    3. Open 1 of the databases in a text editor
    4. Do find and replace all – so replace jamesriverwriters.dreamhosters.com with jamesriverwriters.org
    5. Import the edited database

    This will then update all references to the mirror site and you should then be able to access the site. Just remember to keep a copy of the original database in case my suggestion doesn’t work!

    Cheers
    Sam
