FileZilla Forums

So I work for a very small nonprofit and was attempting to change our Wordpress homepage, but inadvertently locked myself out of the entire site by changing the Wordpress URL but not the website URL. I am not totally unable to log in, as it says the site is no longer hosted on the server and I get 404ed.

I'm trying to use FileZilla to FTP onto the server so that I can change back the URLs and regain access to the site, but the site url is <irrelevant>. Every time I try to log in, the URL reverts to <even more irrelevant> and can't connect to the server. Any thoughts on how I can FTP into the database and change the URLs back before my boss notices?

The database is not exposed over FTP, so you can't do that.

The path is usually in a file called "config.php" or similar in the base of the Wordpress installation. Change the paths in that text file back and re-upload it.
