Breaking My Site

I surprised myself with how quickly I was able to fix my site, and it was mostly because I found a very useful article. I started by breaking my site which led me to this page:

I started by kind of scoping it out, I found that if I retyped in my url it would correct it to the broken one. I also found that I could still acess my cpanel just not wordpress. I figured I needed to rechange the url, but would need some back way to get there. I looked around the applications on cpanel but did not really find anything that seemed obvious.

I decided it was time to start looking on google, at first, I found an article, but it was assuming you still had access to wordpress which I did not. I then used the words “can’t access wordpress dashboard because wordpress url does not match subdomain”. This led me to the following article: https://wp-me.com/cant-access-wordpress-after-changing-site-url/. It gave me two options, one, edit the code, although it generally advised against that, or to edit it through php admin. I followed the five simple steps and got my site up and running again in no time. All in all, I was able to complete the activity in less than 15 minuets which I am pretty proud of, but most of the thanks goes to the article which was super helpful. I was also proud that I had deducted I would have to edit the url through another application in cpanel, I just needed help with the specifics. I also did not read the blog post instructions and did not take a screenshot of my broken site, so I re-did all of it and fixed the problem by memory this time.
