I see. I had the exact problem when I started off my wordpress site, made a couple of changes outlined below, and it worked perfectly for me. Here’s what I did.
(Note I am assuming you only have 1 wordpress site like I do)
– First I backed up my current site in WordPress. Tools -> Export.
– Next I logged into my host site, in my case ipage.com and un-installed WordPress. Next I removed all my databases. Different hosts will have different control panels, but generally the same sections. I went to File Manager, selected all the files and deleted them. This allowed me to clear all the mess I had earlier created and start new.
-I then re-installed wordpress through my host. This re-installation is the important bit. When you get to the bit where you need to specify the Path to Application, which is where your application’s files will be stored and where it will be accessed, select your domain/url as lastnightneveragain.co.uk, and leave the installation directory blank. This will allow your domain to point directly to your wordpress site. In the database section, choose the option that creates a database automatically. If there is an option that says “Yes, install to this directory, even if the directory already exists”, select it as well. Complete installation.
-Log into your wordpress site.
-Go to Settings -> General and make the following changes, if not already done.
-WordPress address (URL): https://lastnightneveragain.co.uk
-Site address (URL): https://lastnightneveragain.co.uk
-Save. Clear your browser cache and try your site now.
This worked for me. Hope this helps.
