Orla Wont move from temple of Dibella in Markarth
As the title says, I married Orla from the temple of dibella in markarth, when the wedding ceremony is complete, i talk to Orla before she leaves the temple, and tell her to move in my house in Falkreath.

But still she goes back to the temple. I can still get money "from our shop" and she cooks me a meal per day... but dosen't live in Falkreath with the kid like i want to.

I looked all over the web and everyone says it's a bug of some sorts... tried diffrent mods and/or console commands but nope, temple of dibella is her only home to her.

Very thankful for any comments on this, be it answers or anyone else having this problem!

I hear if you adopt a child it will sometimes fix this.

I found a post on the Bethesda forums saying they are looking into this issue. It was dated Dec 2011.

You could try the "moveto player" console command.

But you may have to divorce her for someone less god obsessed.

Try moving her to ur home with the console command and see what happens.
You on a PC ?
Get her "refID" visually thru console,
Fast travel home,
Console: PRID "refID"
Console: moveto player

You can't divorce in Skyrim, and if you kill your spouse, you can't remarry. As for Orla, I've read about this bug on UESPwiki - she will always go back to the temple. I'm not sure if it's fixable.

What happens, is that she just turns around, and starts walking back to markarth again.

I have even tried Disbanding her from Markarthtempleofdibella Faction but with no luck :/

I figured out a workaround for this problem. It uses the My Home is Your Home mod to assign Orla a new home and console commands so it is limited to PC.

Step 1 - install My Home is Your Home: http://www.nexusmods.com/skyrim/mods/18045/?
Step 2 - Get Orla's "refID". There are lots of tutorials on using the console.. if you open the console and click on her it will show up.
Step 3 - Make Orla a follower. The MYiYH mod affects followers but Orla is not a follower! Use the console command "Addtofaction 'refid' 1" to make Orla into a follower. She is the world's worst follower and will not follow you at all.
Step 4 - Go to the place you would like Orla to live (she won't follow you there but we'll take care of that soon)
Step 5- teleport Orla to your location using the console command "moveto player"
Step 6 - Talk to Orla. You have to be quick because she will be trying to walk back to the temple. When you talk to her and she is a follower, you should have the MHiYH dialog option to "talk about home". You can use this dialog to assign your current location as her home.
Step 7 - Dismiss her as a follower. It may seem like Step 6 did not work because, as a terrible follower, she will be trying to walk to the temple. When she is dismissed, the MHiYH scripting takes over, however, and she will stay in her home area.

I got this to work with her in the second floor of a Hearthfire house and she stays on the second floor, sleeps in the beds, and gets drunk and dances around when the bard plays. The typical wife dialog also works - homecooked meal, ask about kids, store, etc. I have not tried to assign her to other location or to use MYiYH to assign her multiple areas (home, sleeping, work).

I hope this works for everyone.
