 Replying to [ticket:50886 tobifjellner]:

 > 1. Since the URL's should include http/https, I believe the sample
 should also have that: "https://example.com)

 I agree on point 1, about adding http/https to the URL. But I'm wondering,
 should we include both? The https://example.com and http://example.com?

 > 2. It would be good to elaborate a bit more on the difference between
 these two URL's. What about "WordPress URL is where the core files of
 WordPress are installed. Site URL is the URL a visitor enters in their
 browser in order to reach your site."

 Yeah, it makes sense IMO to rephrase the original sentence. @marybaum, I'd
 love to have your feedback about the proposed wording :).

 > - Perhaps we should also mention here about http/https specifically?

 What if we include instead a link to a resource that clarify that. We
 don't want the help panel to be also very long I think.

 > - What about: Remember that if you want to move your site to a different
 domain, you'll usually need to first configure this outside of WordPress.
