 * Did you place those two lines **immediately** after the initial “<?php” line 
   in your _active_ themes functions.php file?

 * See if you have any better luck [using the phpMyAdmin method](https://codex.wordpress.org/Changing_The_Site_URL#Changing_the_URL_directly_in_the_database).
   Don’t forget to remove the lines you placed in the functions.php file first.

 * Can you give us the domain name? Maybe someone can take a look and see if they
   can spot what’s going on.
