    Hello,

    My dad made a mistake changeing the url website in the options..

    my site, https://www.vlielandvantoen.nl isnt reachable, I cant login.

    He changed something in the url, and I really dont know what.

    Does anyone knows what this is and where and what i must change to solve this.

    Regards,

    Denny

    Denny,

    Looks like he made a mistake with the WordPress Address (URL) and Site Address (URL).

    Almost all of the URLs are lacking the /cms/ needed to get your site to work.

    So this does not work:

    https://www.vlielandvantoen.nl/wp-content/themes/weaver/readme.txt

    But this does:

    https://www.vlielandvantoen.nl/cms/wp-content/themes/weaver/readme.txt

    Try this method

    https://codex.www.ads-software.com/Changing_The_Site_URL#Edit_functions.php

    Download via FTP a copy of /cms/wp-content/themes/weaver/functions.php and save that somewhere safe.

    Modify a copy of that file so that the end of that file looks like this.

    add_action('wp_head', 'weaver_wp_head');
add_action('admin_menu', 'weaver_add_admin');
add_action('admin_head', 'weaver_admin_head');

update_option('siteurl','https://www.vlielandvantoen.nl/cms');
update_option('home','https://www.vlielandvantoen.nl');

?>

    The last two update_option lines are new.

    Now upload the copy and overwrite the existing file on your server /cms/wp-content/themes/weaver/functions.php

    Visit your blog and see if that fixes it. If it doesn’t try replacing the two update_option lines with these.

    update_option('siteurl','https://www.vlielandvantoen.nl');
update_option('home','https://www.vlielandvantoen.nl/cms');

    I often get those two option URLs mixed up when they’re not the same… ??

    Once you are back to normal, put back that original functions.php file.
