Oh… actually, I just fixed it. When I heard “access your WordPress database via phpMyAdmin”, I thought I’d have to issue direct SQL calls, etc.

Home location is just a field on the domain.com (my hosting provider) menu. Thanks again for the fix!

I still wonder if there’s a better way to do this though, seems like something that could throw folks for a loop?

FYI – I just did the same thing. I’m a computer guy so thankfully I’m not intimidated by the solution, but I do wish there would’ve been a prompt saying something like “you know this will break everything if you haven’t moved your files, right?”.

I think such an action should probably be hidden as well. If it requires fairly advanced action the option to change the URL should probably not be out in the open like that.

Just my two cents, FWIW.

Thank you to everyone above for the answer though!
