    Yep, I clicked the wp.config in restoration. Head slap.
    I WANTED to migrate an existing site into a new install, different url and keep the new url.
    INSTEAD, it migrated no problem, but now switches to the old url name.
    I went into ftp and deleted the entire new site, uninstalled and reinstalled a fresh wordpress in cpanel – nothing works.
    When I go into the dashboard, it still switches over to the old url and migrated site.
    How can I delete the entire new install and begin again?
    Or, how can I give it the new install url again? Whichever is easier.

    Thanks

    Hi Bonnie,

    When you performed the migration, did you choose the ‘Search/Replace database’ option?
    If not, you can follow this guide to access the site and repeat the migration:
