Accidentally changed site URL WordPress

SOLVED

Hi there! I changed my site URL, and as you can imagine my site no longer appears at the old URL. The information is still on the server, but I have no inerface to change the URL and address back to the original settings.

I didn't install the wordpress site so my knowledge is limited, and the help files were a bit over my head.

Help me get my site back and I will reward you handsomely. :)

Send me the username and password to the hosting and the old site url and I'll fix this for you

Erez S comments:

Or you can add this to your wp-config.php file in the beginning of the file:
define('WP_HOME', 'http://' . $_SERVER['SERVER_NAME']); define('WP_SITEURL', 'http://' . $_SERVER['SERVER_NAME']);

Add the following line to your wp-config.php file

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

with example.com being your site's path.
