Move failure

  • Hi!
    I want to move my WordPress site to another domain.
    Unfortunately something went wrong when I attempted to do so.
    1) I downloaded all files
    2) I changed the url in the WP settings
    3) I uploaded the files to another domain
    4) Now none of the domains show my WP site

    PLEASE help:-)

    After the failure I uploaded all the backuped files to the old domain, but I still get no access to the WP control panel…

    SOLVED!

    I followed this guide:

    Changing the Site URL

    There are four easy methods to change the Site URL manually. Any of these methods will work and perform much the same function.

    Edit wp-config.php

    It is possible to set the site URL manually in the wp-config.php file.

    Add these two lines to your wp-config.php, where “example.com” is the correct location of your site.
    define(‘WP_HOME’,’https://example.com’);
    define(‘WP_SITEURL’,’https://example.com’);

    This is not necessarily the best fix, it’s just hardcoding the values into the site itself. You won’t be able to edit them on the General settings page anymore when using this method.
