   bbpress version 0.9.0.2
   Operating System: Linux Hosting
   Configuration: 2.0
   PHP Version: 5.x

   I was trying to change the url of my bbpress forum because it was loading from the preview site that GoDaddy gave me before I made it live. In doing so I effectively locked myself out of the admin area and redirected all of the content. Is there a php file that I can re-upload to counter the changes I made or do I need to talk to my server host? The error message I get when I click on a topic or category is that safari can't find the content on the server, I then set the url to the url I last changed it to and get the message “No input file specified."

   Take a look at www.truediy.com if you want to see what I am talking about.

   Thanks!

   If you have a tool like phpMyAdmin, I think you should be able to log in there and change the site URL.

   You used to be able to define the site URL in the bb-config.php as well. This is what used to be in that file:

   // The full URL of your bbPress install
   $bb->uri = 'http://www.truediy.com/';

    
   Maybe if you put that second line in your bb-config.php maybe that will override the database settings? (Actually, I'm fairly certain that will work. Then you can update the settings in the admin.)

   Setting $bb->uri in your config file still works (and always should).
