Search & Replace

jasonbass · April 2016

Most of the time, I build my sites on a development server and then move the files over to the production server. Part of that process has always been uploading a Search & Replace script that allows me to replace anything in the database with something else. So for instance, I'd change "devserver.com" to "newserver.com". With your theme though, it doesn't seem to work and I have to go through each and every page to manually edit links and images to have the new server address. Why is that?

Hi,

while site migration, we always use 2 plugins and did never had any problems with content or settings migration. Those plugins are: WP Migrate DB and Mfn CB Migration Tool.

Thanks!

Thanks. I also realized that in your settings, there's a way to save the data that is not serialized. That should also do the trick for me next time.

Yes, that's also possible.
