I have accidently changed my wordpress URL and Site URL in my wordpress admin. Now I cannot access my backend of the site, its throwing a 404 error.
How do I get back into the backend and edit the links I changed?
Thank you!! Scott

If your hosting provider has a control panel see if phpMyAdmin or some other database tool is available.Dave– Dave2018-09-19 13:27:12 +00:00Commented Sep 19, 2018 at 13:27

Go in phphmyadmin and then open wp_options and find siteurl, home change with correct url. It will work.

Very strange update. Can access everything in the backend if I know the link. however if I just write '/wp-admin' after the domain they it comes up page not found. As this still goes to the old link.

Then find out in the url in phpmyadmin may be in some plugin may create the issue. You just find and replace the url it will work.
