# Wrong Domain???

 * I think I messed up installation and need to start over. Is there a way to change
   this? Here is a picture of my problem:

 * In other words, where it says “WordPress address” I took this too literally and
   typed in [http://WordPress.org](http://WordPress.org) !!!
 * I must be stupid! Hee hee. It is now reading WordPress.org instead of LoanProcessors.
   net (or BrokenCredit.com another domain pointer) for all admin links inside my
   blog. How do I change this BACK to [http://www.LoanProcessors.net](http://www.LoanProcessors.net)
   since all admin links are now linked to WordPress.org — I can type the links 
   in manually in the browser address but I get this error message when I attempt
   to change:
 * “Sorry, you need to enable sending referrers for this feature to work.”
 * At least one or two people must have typed “WordPress.org” literally where it
   says WordPress address, so how to fix that?

 * Today seems to be URL day, I think, I (or someone) should put something about
   that problem into the codex …
 * But for now, take a look here:

 * Thanks. You are saying I have to actually go into the database? What I have from
   that messsage:
 * Then you have to go to the database (with phpMyAdmin or something like that) 
   and change the following rows in the <prefix>_options table:
 * – siteurl
    – maybe fileupload_url and – home
 * I will have to call my web host for this, or I’ll just have them wipe the database
   and start over. There’s no data in it so its not a problem.

 * If there is no data in it, wiping and redoing the install would be the best way.
