PHP Script to Reset WordPress URL

Are you looking for a PHP script that can reset the WordPress Address (URL) of your blog? or Did you accidentally change the settings of the Blog Address (URL) from General settings then you were not able to access your blog because of this modification that you made?

Now to solve my problem, I have prepared a PHP script to reset it to my original blog settings. Here’s the PHP script for the WordPress address URL reset that I used:

$dbhost = ‘localhost’;
$dbuser = ‘user_name’;
$dbpass = ‘password‘;
$conn = mysql_connect($dbhost, $dbuser, $dbpass) or die(’Error connecting to mysql’);
$dbname = ‘databasename’;
mysql_select_db($dbname);
$query = “UPDATE wp_options SET option_value = ‘http://www.urdomain.com‘ WHERE `wp_options`.`option_id` =1 AND `wp_options`.`blog_id` =0 AND CONVERT( `wp_options`.`option_name` USING utf8 ) = ’siteurl’ LIMIT 1 ;”;
$result = mysql_query($query);
$query = “UPDATE wp_options SET option_value = ‘http://www.urdomain.com’ WHERE `wp_options`.`option_id` =39 AND `wp_options`.`blog_id` =0 AND CONVERT( `wp_options`.`option_name` USING utf8 ) = ‘home’ LIMIT 1 ;”;
$result = mysql_query($query);
mysql_close($conn);
?>

You can download the whole script here: reseturl.txt and modify the portion (underlined option above) that is applicable to your site. Rename the file to reseturl.php then upload it to your website. Execute it and that’s all it will reset the WordPress Address (URL) and Blog Address (URL) to appropriate URL.

I hope this script will solve your WordPress problem.
