 * Hi!
    I want to move my WordPress site to another domain. Unfortunately something
   went wrong when I attempted to do so. 1) I downloaded all files 2) I changed 
   the url in the WP settings 3) I uploaded the files to another domain 4) Now none
   of the domains show my WP site
 * PLEASE help:-)

 * After the failure I uploaded all the backuped files to the old domain, but I 
   still get no access to the WP control panel…

 * SOLVED!
 * I followed this guide:
 * Changing the Site URL
 * There are four easy methods to change the Site URL manually. Any of these methods
   will work and perform much the same function.
 * Edit wp-config.php
 * It is possible to set the site URL manually in the wp-config.php file.
 * Add these two lines to your wp-config.php, where “example.com” is the correct
   location of your site.
    define(‘WP_HOME’,’[http://example.com&#8217](http://example.com&#8217););
   define(‘WP_SITEURL’,’[http://example.com&#8217](http://example.com&#8217););
 * This is not necessarily the best fix, it’s just hardcoding the values into the
   site itself. You won’t be able to edit them on the General settings page anymore
   when using this method.
