# Changing multisite URL

 * Hello,
 * In order to migrate existing blog content, I first set up a multisite WordPress
   install at [http://newblogs.centralpenn.edu](http://newblogs.centralpenn.edu),
   which is not publicly accessible. After moving over content, I followed the instructions
   [here](http://codex.wordpress.org/Moving_WordPress#Moving_WordPress_Multisite)
   to change the URL of my site to [http://blogs.centralpenn.edu](http://blogs.centralpenn.edu).
   Only the URL is changing, the file location on the server has not changed.
 * Everything seems to work fine, except I am unable to access any of the network
   administration features, as these are still pointing, for some reason, to [http://newblogs.centralpenn.edu/wp-admin/network/](http://newblogs.centralpenn.edu/wp-admin/network/).
 * I am completely stumped. I have gone through the databases manually looking for
   any mention of newblogs.centralpenn.edu and found nothing. I used the [search and replace script](http://interconnectit.com/products/search-and-replace-for-wordpress-databases/),
   which was also unable to find anything.
 * What am I missing? Any ideas?

 * Check your wp-config.php file.
 * change:
 * `define('DOMAIN_CURRENT_SITE', 'newblogs.centralpenn.edu');`
 * to
 * `define('DOMAIN_CURRENT_SITE', 'blogs.centralpenn.edu');`
 * Does that fix the issue? If it does, then I’m not sure why that’s not in the 
   codex.

 * That did it!
 * Thanks so much. I knew there was something that I was missing, and there is no
   mention of it in the codex.
 * Thanks again – have a great weekend!
