* I don’t think that you should have changed your site and wordpress url.
* To change these back, go to your hosting provider and log into your cpanel. Hopefully
they have PhpMyadmin. If they do, then login to phpMyadmin and navigate to the
wp_options table. You can then change your site url and wordpress url back to
what it was.
* If you registered a new domain and then forwarded it to your existing domain,
then the site and wordpress urls need to stay as the existing domain name.

* I have had a issue with Dot.TK mainly when i go to the site via [http://www.example.tk](http://www.example.tk)
when i enter the details to log in the page goes blank white. And if i got trough
[http://www.example.freehostingsite.com](http://www.example.freehostingsite.com)
and go through the login process everything is fine.
* Im not sure if what you are describing is the same issue.
If it is i have found
a way around it.
* Dot.tk Take on the URL so if you have set up different pages all of them will
say [http://www.example.tk](http://www.example.tk) When loging in to try and
get to the admin page for me it caused a white screen. So it was a redirection
problem. Dot.tk was trying to keep hold of the URL
* What i had to do was unmask the URL from dot.tk – what this means is if people
go to your site through [http://www.example.tk](http://www.example.tk) when they
reach the site the URL displays its original [http://www.example.freehostingsite.com](http://www.example.freehostingsite.com)
This will allow you to go into the admin area no problem. But you will have to
settle for visitors seeing the original URL not the Dot.tk one They can still
follow the Dot.tk URL to your site though.
* To unmasked the the URL you have to go into your wordpress Theme Header.PHP and
under the line
*
```
* This worked for me.
