WordPress address and site address. * I accidentally put .com instead of .net for both of these. * Sai * [WPyogi](https://wordpress.org/support/users/wpyogi/) * (@wpyogi) * [13 years, 3 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/cannot-gain-access/#post-3509853) * There are several ways to change those back: * [http://codex.wordpress.org/Changing_The_Site_URL](http://codex.wordpress.org/Changing_The_Site_URL) * Thread Starter [Saimurai](https://wordpress.org/support/users/saimurai/) * (@saimurai) * [13 years, 3 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/cannot-gain-access/#post-3509901) * Just read through it and that seems to be the business, thanks so much.

I went onto my IXWebhosting account and have created a new database using MySQL server for the ‘.com’ site and have installed a fresh wordpress installation there too. So thats all running, i just need to transfer over the site from the ‘.net’ domain. I have backed up using the Total Backup Plugin and now have a downloaded zip file just in case it all goes ti…..belly-up. 🙂 * I was reading through the codex regarding moving ([http://codex.wordpress.org/Moving_WordPress](http://codex.wordpress.org/Moving_WordPress)), and i was wondering, can you tell me which one of these I should follow? I think its option 2, (Domain name is still to be [http://www.saikoproductions](http://www.saikoproductions) but it will now be .com instead of .net.) * 1 When Your Domain Name and URLs Do Not Change 2 When Your Domain Name or URLs Change 2.1 On Your Existing Server 2.1.1 If you forget to change the locations 2.1.2 If you have accidentally changed your WordPress site URL 2.2 Moving to a New Server 2.3 If You Don’t Care If Your Old Blog Works 2.4 If You Want Your Old Blog To Still Work * When it says on your existing server in 2.1 what is meant by server? Am i moving to a new server or staying with the existing one? i host both domains on my IX account, so does this mean it will be staying on the existing server? * Sorry, im sure this is all basic stuff to you lot! * Sai Viewing 7 replies - 1 through 7 (of 7 total) The topic ‘Cannot gain access!!!’ is closed to new replies. ## Tags * [locked out](https://wordpress.org/support/topic-tag/locked-out/) * In: [Fixing WordPress](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/how-to-and-troubleshooting/) * 7 replies * 3 participants * Last reply from: [Saimurai](https://wordpress.org/support/users/saimurai/) * Last activity: [13 years, 3 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/cannot-gain-access/#post-3510006) * Status: resolved ## Topics ### Topics with no replies ### Non-support topics ### Resolved topics ### Unresolved topics ### All topics
