Search & Replace data in your database with WordPress admin, replace domains/URLs of your WordPress installation.



== Description ==

With Search & Replace you can search for everything and replace this with everything **but before** you do this you can easily **create** a simple **database backup** and restore it.



For avoiding problem please keep in mind that this plugin search and replace strictly what is specified in "Replace With".

Common error example:

Search For: http://web.com/wordpress/

Replace With: http://neuweb.com/wordpress

The url become something like: http://neuweb.com/wordpresscontent/...



Correct "Replace with":

Search For: http://web.com/wordpress/

Replace With: http://neuweb.com/wordpress/

The url become something like: http://neuweb.com/wordpress/content/...



**We have implemented special features!** 



The first one is "Replace a Domain / URL" that is useful for a quick and simple transfer or a migration of a WordPress site. 

The second feature is full support for serialized data. There are a lot more features - check them out! :-)



Our goal with this plugin is to give you a good solution for manipulating your data for both Developers and Users of WordPress.



> **Note:** This plugin requires PHP 5.6 or higher to be activated.
