Hello！How can I reset the WordPress Address and Site URL settings to HTTP only after mistakenly switching them to HTTPS without an SSL certificate? Specifically, in which file are these settings stored, and how can I manually update them to prevent the infinite loop issue in the WordPress dashboard?

  You can force the settings using the wp-config.php file:
  
  Open your WordPress root directory using FTP or your hosting file manager.
  Edit the wp-config.php file.
  Add the following lines at the bottom:
  code
  define(‘WP_HOME’, ‘http://yourwebsite.com’);
  define(‘WP_SITEURL’, ‘http://yourwebsite.com’);
  Replace http://yourwebsite.com with your actual site URL.
  Save the file and reload your website.
