• Hey guys,

    Having some troubles here.

    I’ve made a wrong move by changing my homepage URL earlier today, and ended up having 404 on all of my site pages.

    After a few hours and a huge headache, I managed to get it back online, by hardcoding the values in the site (as said here https://codex.www.ads-software.com/Changing_The_Site_URL ==> editing wp-config.php and typing

    define('WP_HOME','https://thegrop.com/2015');
    define('WP_SITEURL','https://thegrop.com/2015');

    Editing the functions.php didn’t do the trick so I had to hard code it (and I can’t change them in the settings tab now).

    So, now, my website is back on and running, YET I used to have it at the root directory ==> https://thegrop.com ; not https://thegrop.com/2015

    If I change one of the value in wp-config (WP_HOME/WP_SITEURL), I get back to my 404 and nothing works.

    I tihnk I’ve to change the .htaccess files, but can’t manage to do it without having internal errors.

    Please, I really need my website to be back up now !

    Could anyone help?

    My hierarchy is currently

    Thegrop.com (ROOT FOLDER, where there is an .htaccess) where I want my website to be
    /2015 (WORDPRESS FOLDER, where there is another .htaccess) where it currently is.

    Thank you so much

    (in the meantime, i’ve added a redirection, so that when someone types
    thegrop.com it’s directed to thegrop.com/2015

    Yet, I’d like it not to be “2015”,

    Thanks for the help)
