It's a minute edit of wp-config.php

add these 2 lines

Code: Select all

define( 'WP_HOME', 'https://www.some-domain/blog/' );
define( 'WP_SITEURL', 'https://www.some-domain/blog/');

you have to update the database name, user name, password too on the same file. Then it should all be fine.

this and what bestfreeporn posted should work

you might also need to get a SSL for the sub-domain

some sub-domains need their own SSL

Why change the domain and lose any seo juice, start a new blog
