Accidentally set up WordPress droplet with wrong domain

Hey @09215b4768b24d74ae4b11e85ca1d4,

You can do a couple of things here.

Update wp-config.php You can define your domain in your wp-config.php like so:

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

Update database with wp-cli There is another way and it is to update your Database using wp-cli. WP-CLI is the command-line interface for WordPress. You can update plugins, configure multisite installations and much more, without using a web browser. To install it, you just need to run the following:

curl -O https://raw.githubusercontent.com/wp-cli/builds/gh-pages/phar/wp-cli.phar
php wp-cli.phar --info
chmod +x wp-cli.phar 
sudo mv wp-cli.phar /usr/local/bin/wp

Once you have it installed, you can run the following command to change your WP_HOME And SITEURL

wp option update home 'http://domain.com'
wp option update siteurl 'http://domain.com'

Recreate your Droplet

You can also recreate your Droplet if the above tasks are too much for you.
