tried to change my url in the general settings to remove the /wp at the end of my url. as soon as i saved the change, i was logged out and i cannot access wp-admin anymore. i went into my hosting and changed it on wordpress on my c-panel to match the new url, still not working. my site still kind of exists but with no CSS and mostly a white page.

after changing everything back to when it was working and being able to access my dashboard again and see my site, i wanted to get rid of the /wp after my URL. i followed these instructions http://codex.ww.wp.xz.cn/Giving_WordPress_Its_Own_Directory and am now getting a blank page when i type in my url, although i am able to get into my dashboard still.

I get this,
The thirtyjune.com page isn’t working

thirtyjune.com is currently unable to handle this request.
HTTP ERROR 500

not a white page.

Do you have cPanel at your host? You can check the error logs by
1. Log into the cPanel for your domain.
2. From the Home page, find the Logs panel.
3. From here, you can select any number of ways to view your access logs. Awstats and Webalizer are the most common graphical views, but you also have the ability of choosing a different log program or downloading the raw access logs to view in any log reader. You may also view your last 300 error logs by clicking on Error Log.

Can someone login to my site and change it back for me?
None of these suggestions work
https://codex.ww.wp.xz.cn/Changing_The_Site_URL

While last logged in to it at http://lucidgroupdigital.com/wp-admin/
… in Settings > General > I changed both the wordpress and site URLs from lucidgroupdigital.com (old) to lucidgroupintranet.com (what we want now), then saved it.
The next time I tried to log in to the same wp-admin page http://lucidgroupdigital.com/wp-admin/, I get the error message:

The site can’t be reached
http://lucidgroupdigital.com/wp-admin/ server DNS address could not be found.

Note also how the error is now reflecting http://lucidgroupdigital.com/wp-admin/ and not lucidgroupintranet.com.

Please, please help. How do I get back into wp-admin page to add least return the URLs to what they were before? Thanks in advance.

I tried calling WordPress about this and they are seriously no help at all. They just want me to pay $75 for someone to fix it. I don’t understand why they can’t just reset back to a earlier file.Can someone please help me? I changed the domain name/Url from Spencerberry.co to Shreveportnutrition.co and now its saying it can’t be opened.
