I’m not sure what exactly is the problem that you’re having but hopefully this solution will work.
- Backup your database (This is very important)
- Download this script: http://interconnectit.com/products/search-and-replace-for-wordpress-databases/
- Use it to replace the old url “theshortfilm.co” to the newer one “welovefilm.co”
- Remove all the url-related configurations you did in your “wp-config.php”
- Go to admin panel to the same “enabling the network page” & this time you’ll see your new url inside the configuration. Copy this new configuration & put it in
.htaccess&wp-config.phpreplacing the previous one (if any)
6) Test to see if your site works, if it does, congrats. If it doesn’t, use the backup you took in step one to undo anything you did just now & then try someone else’s answer.
Note: All this script does is search for a string in the database and replace it with another. You need to be extremely careful when using it. If it says “modified 0 rows”, then you most likely put in the wrong url. For best results, include the http://.
That file gives database access to anyone who can view it, so don’t use it on production server & immediately delete it after use
