Change WordPress URL

by ·

There are multiple ways to change URL in WordPress.

Here’s one via wp-config.php.

define( 'WP_HOME', 'http://example.com' );
define( 'WP_SITEURL', 'http://example.com' );

If you have a redirect in Apache, comment it out.

#Redirect permanent / https://yourdomain.com/

This is by far the easiest way to change URL in WordPress.
