Wordpress问题 - 每次登录管理员时都会更改siteurl和home选项

Question

I hope you can help me. For some unknown reason, every time I log into the admin and update the site, afterwards the "siteurl" and "home" paths are always changed to a previously used "testsubdomain". I already hired a developer who gave up telling me that he isn't a Wordpress specialist and can't see where the issue is.

What I have done until now, I just went into the phpmyadmin every time I noticed that it happened again, and changed the entries back to its correct path manually. This has become a real pain because every time this happens, the contact form entries aren't forwarded to the client either, and he is losing potential business.

Can anyone help and point me into a direction of how to fix this? The site is http://www.chinatownband.com.

Thank you in advance!

Check to see if the URLs are hardcoded in either wp-config.php or the active theme functions.php file. Those are locations that read the URL settings for WordPress and can be used to fix or hardcode the URLs because they will override the URL settings in the database (see http://codex.wordpress.org/Changing_The_Site_URL ).

You're looking for

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

If you find those, delete them and then change to http://www.chinatownband.com in the database with phpmyadmin as you have been doing.

If those settings are not in wp-config.php or the active theme functions.php file, download the whole theme and use a text editor to search the folder for those define lines.

And look in the root web directory for any non-core WordPress files and folders and check them, too.

In the end, you may also need to use https://github.com/interconnectit/Search-Replace-DB to safely find/replace URLs in the database. The URLs you are changing are only the 2 settings URLs and don't retroactively change any URLs in page/post content that are links to media, other pages, etc.
