change wordpress url in plesk parallels

Noturns

Regular Pleskian
I recently changed the main domain url from website.com to www.website.com,
this resulted in 404-errors when i navigated to wordpress

I found a solution on the internet and updated the records with phpmyadmin
http://themergency.com/generators/wordpress-site-url-migration-generator/

When i click on Login at the the WordPress Installations i'm still being navigated to the old website url. It supprices me that there is no option to change it on Plesk level after wordpress is deployed.

How can i change or update the wordpress path once it is installed in Plesk?

I'm using CentOS6.2, maybe there is a config file or an database for Plesk?

Solved! as i just discovered myself in the Wordpress Installations panel - just click on refresh and the url automatically updates :)
 
Hi Noturns,

some basic wordpress configurations are not only set in the database, but as well in the wordpress configuration file: /wp-config.php

A setting as "define( 'DOMAIN_CURRENT_SITE', 'YOURDOMAIN.COM' );" could be modified manually to "define( 'DOMAIN_CURRENT_SITE', 'WWW.YOURDOMAIN.COM' );"

As well, if you are just editing anyway, you could consider raising the wordpress standards, with some addiotnal entries like:
PHP:
define( 'WP_MEMORY_LIMIT', '96M' );
define( 'WP_MAX_MEMORY_LIMIT', '256M' );
