    You can fix these directly in the database following this guide: https://codex.ww.wp.xz.cn/Changing_The_Site_URL#Changing_the_URL_directly_in_the_database

    You’ll find phpMyAdmin in your hosting account’s control panel.

    Thanks James for your reply. I did find this when searching the documentation, but unfortunately my 1&1 host control panel phpadmin does not seem to follow the conventions listed i.e. wp_options. In fact I can’t find any reference to wp tables at all.

    Would I be able to restore from my dropbox backup using ftp?

    Thanks again for your comment.

    Look for a table named [anything]_options. More than likely, your table prefix was randomized during installation, so the “wp” bit doesn’t apply.

    Thanks James I found a table called dmleysthf_options and there it was and I’ve managed to successfully change the URL back to the correct address and everything in this world is fine and beautiful. Job done.
    Thanks for taking the time James, it’s much appreciated.
