Primary domain change and wordpress?
If your wordpress pages and admin login stopped loading after a primary domain change (in your hosting control panel). you need to use the phpMyAdmin (under Databases, typically) tool to recover it.
This tool is located in your cPanel.
You should see your database in the left panel (once inside phpMyAdmin). Expand the database and locate the following table: wp_options.
Edit the following two lines: siteurl and home to reflect your new primary domain name.
