\u2794 Important Note:<\/strong> Before you start the process, it is advisable to keep a backup of your database before making any changes, especially if you are not familiar with working directly with databases. In case, if you encounter any issues during the process, you can revert to restore your website to its previous state.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Steps to Change Your WordPress URL From PhpMyAdmin<\/strong><\/span><\/h2>\n

\u2794 Open your PhyMyAdmin via your control panels like cPanel, Webuzo, or Plesk. <\/span><\/p>\n

\"Open<\/span><\/p>\n

\u2794 Once logged in, you will see a list of databases on the left-hand side. <\/span><\/p>\n

\"list<\/span><\/p>\n

\u2794 You have to click on the database that corresponds to your WordPress installation.<\/span><\/p>\n

\"database<\/span><\/p>\n

(If you are unsure about the database, you can usually find this information in your <\/span>\u2018wp-config.php\u2019 <\/strong>file<\/span> located in the root directory of your WordPress installation.)<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

\u2794 From the list, you have to click on the <\/span>\u2018wp_options\u2019<\/strong> table.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

\"click<\/span><\/p>\n

\u2794 Inside the <\/span>\u2018wp_options\u2019<\/strong> table, you will find various rows of data. Look for the rows named <\/span>\u2018siteurl\u2019<\/strong> and <\/span>\u2018home\u2019<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

\"Find<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

\u2794 You have to click on the pencil icon to edit the row.<\/span><\/p>\n

\"click<\/span><\/p>\n

\u2794 Once you are in editing mode, a field containing your current WordPress URL will appear. You have to replace this with your new URL.<\/span><\/p>\n

\"replace<\/span><\/p>\n

\u2794 Once done, click the <\/span>\u2018Go\u2019<\/strong> button to save your changes.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

\"click<\/span><\/p>\n

That\u2019s it! You have successfully changed your WordPress URL!<\/span><\/p>\n

Note:<\/strong> In case, if you have enabled caching plugins or server-side caching mechanisms, you need to clear the cache to ensure that your website reflects the changes immediately.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n
