    Thanks Mark, looked at this link, it seems a long and complicated issue..
    Just wondering: is there a “quick fix” using “WordPress eXtended RSS” file, that I happen to keep a recent copy of .. ?

    Those processes are as simple as it gets. The wp-config.php process is the easiest. http://codex.ww.wp.xz.cn/Changing_The_Site_URL#Edit_wp-config.php

    The WP import file is a different animal; it will import your site content, but it won’t change the site URLs, as it is designed to be domain-agnostic in order to transfer content from one site to another.

    The problem seems in locating and editing the wp-config.php file.
    I do not have wordpress installed on my computer, so I always used to access the admin part online through my user name and password.
    Now how/where to find the site FTP credentials, in order to connect to wp-config file through Cyberduck, or other ..??

    You don’t need or want WP on your PC/Mac; the wp-config.php file is at your webhost. You do need FTP; see Filezilla and FTP Clients « WordPress Codex.

    If you’re on a Mac, Cyberduck is an FTP client. Who is the webhost? You need to ask them for FTP crdentials. Or use the file editor in your hosting Cpanel.

    Thanks for the prompt answer. I will look for the webhost and ask for these credentials. Thanks again for the help.
