Messed up site - Time Machine restore does not work

Hello,

I have messed up some Wordpress setting on my Local WP site (changed the address to the live online site) which basically broke my Wordpress. I did restore “Local Sites” folder and Application (Local app) files from the TM backup I had and rewrote the wp_options table with the former link to the local site, but it still does not bring me the fully functional site I had before. I see some content now, but there is a lot of images missing (probably due to changing the site address) and I cannot also access my wp-admin (it says the site does not exist).

This it the link it generates after I am trying to access wp-admin:

http://purple-is-the-color.local/wp-admin/purple-is-the-color.local/wp-login.php?redirect_to=http%3A%2F%2Fpurple-is-the-color.local%2Fwp-admin%2F&reauth=1

Any ideas what am I doing wrong here? Just trying to recover my old site as it was before with TM as fast as possible. Thanks a lot!

Ok. Problem resolved. I did a full restore from the yesterday instead of migrating just the app files and it now works good.
