URL change - website down

[danny]

Dear @Marius,

I just changed the WordPress Adress and Website Adress to the new Domain peoplewebsite.de but now the website is down. Do you maybe know what the reason might be? Really hope that the design is not gone.

Thanks a lot!

All best wishes

Daniel

Dear @danny
maybe in the Wordpress settings you forgot to change the domain URL?

How did you make the move? Did you move the database as well?

Best!

Dear @mariusjopen

thanks! I only both changed the WordPress URL and the Website URL to peoplewebsite.de, which results that you only see the menu but not the rest of the website.

Is there a way we can put it back to http://people-berlin.karuna-ev.de for both WordPress URL and the Website URL?

The strange thing is that the Wordpress Login doesn't work any more:

Oberfläche: http://people-berlin.karuna-ev.de/wp-admin
Benutzername: karuna
Passwort: 9fpeaR2xM(o2#G2S1w0veAf%

Thanks so much,
Daniel

Dear @danny

you need to change the link target in your webhost.
Then in the wordpress URL settings you need to place the new URL.

PLEASE. Do never post your logins here. Send me a PM. Please also change your password now.

Best!

I have exactly the same problem. Now I can't access the admin panel.

Tell me what I can do to resolve this, thanks a lot !

Dear @OPN
Can you post a link to our website?
Then we can have a look and inspect that.

Dear @mariusjopen ,

I have a similar problem.

My website is hosted by Gandi.
I want to change the wordpress adress to my domain claireisrael.com
Unfortunatly, it doesn't work.

I tried to migrate the website via duplicator, it still doesn't work.
Can you explain me what do you mean by "to change the link in your webhost"?...

My website is on http://107edc5735.url-de-test.ws and I am trying to migrate it to claireisrael.com.

Thanks a lot for your help.

Best,

Claire

Make sure to follow Armin’s Tutorial.

You need to tell Wordpress / the database where all the files are located. You cannot just copy the files over to a different location. Think of it like indesign files and the linked files have been moved somehwere else – You need to relink everything to the new location and paths otherwise the document isn’t working as expected – That’s basically what migrating is.
