   The Velvet Blues Update URLs plugin is excellent. I want to share my experience with it. After i did my URL change with it. I still see the error on opening all post. I solved it by going to „Settings > Permalinks“ section and then saved my permalinks once more by clicking the „Save Changes“ button. This solved my problem and will also solve yours if you still get some error.

   Velvet blues is great, but misses one thing. Does not change URL’s in options if URL’s are there. Say for Custom CSS. Also, anyone have issues of you changing the URL’s, see changes in the DB. But when you go edit the page, they are still say http, when they should be https? Seems to only happen with image URL’s.

    In response to ADITYA’s comment about this being a substitute for 301 redirects.

    I would say that a find and replace plugin is NOT a substitute for 301 redirects. 301 redirects are still valuable from an SEO standpoint, as well as for users who may have bookmarked or are accustomed to using your old domain.

    Just using this plugin would result in your users hitting an old site that is no longer being maintained or a site that’s been taken offline.

    On a personal note, I definitely recommend Migrate DB Pro for this type of activity. It’s worth the money, if you’re doing local development.

    Hi,

    Does this plug in also work for updating links that are embedded inside tables that I created with TablePress? I also have a number of URLs as part of image descriptions for photos that I added using FooGallery, and i assume that these are stored inside the database, rather than in the HTML for the pages – is Velvet Blues able to update these as well, or do I need a different plug in for that task? My site (which I am going to move from its current directory to a subdirectory of my site that I want to use for an add-on domain) contains about 13.500 images and 500 tables, and it would be extremely tedious to check every single one for links, and then manually replace them with the new URL.

    Antworten

    • Josh says

      Jun 22, 2016 um 11:26 pm

      Hi Jatinder.
      The reason this plugin doesn’t work for content inside Visual Composer is because Visual Composer stores the links in a strange way. If you click on „Classic Mode“ in Visual Composer you’ll see that links don’t look like proper URLs.

      For example, I have a VC button that points to this link:

      example.com/services/adwords/

      But in Classic Mode I can see that the link looks like this:
      http%3A%2F%2Fexample.com%2Fservices%2Fadwords%2F

      So this will be why Velvet Blues doesn’t change these links.

      To fix the content, without having to manually edit every link, you’ll need to run another search and replace plugin and search for the urls using this structure.

    Hi,

    Great article. Thanks.

    Unfortunately I am still confused about whether „updating the URLs“ using these special plugins is actually necessary for when you’re simply taking a development site (in a subdirectory, say http://www.example.com/wpdev) live on the root domain, and not actually moving any files??

    For example, I did a test and made my http://www.example.com/wpdev site live by following the instructions is the WordPress Codex. I simply changed the wp site URL in general settings, put a copy of the index and htaccess file in the above root folder (and tweaked index.php to require the subdirectory), updated permalinks and viola: everything works including my links to my attachments in posts.

    Curiously however, when I then „update the URLs in the database“ using a dedicated plugin, then it actually breaks some of my links. Note I update all the tables except the options table as this has the wp home url link which should remain as example.com/wpdev/

    I actually think this topic is one of the more unclear parts of the WordPress Codex.

    Perhaps I don’t understand the difference in effects between hardcoded links and non-hardcoded links properly?

    Cheers

      On your hosting account edit your Domain A and point it to some other directory. After that Edit domain B and point it to the directory that was previously used by domain A. You can also ask your webhost for support. After that you will need this plugin to update your URLs, you will also need to update your WordPress site and home URL in wp-config.php file to make sure it is pointing to domain B.

      define('WP_HOME','http://example.com');
      define('WP_SITEURL','http://example.com');

    Forgive my ignorance. I’m fairly new to all this and I may not be using the right terminology but I migrated from .com to .org last week. I didn’t see the „move your blog“ tutorial from wpbeginner until after and so I followed my new hosts tutorial which was MUCH more difficult and technical. Anyway… I’m moved. Everything appears to be working fine but my images are still pointing to the old site. From what i read, this plug in would help but I’m stuck on old url/new url. Isn’t my url the same as my domain name? And my domain name stayed the same when I moved so… I’m a little lost there. On my NEW admin page I can go to settings>general and see that my „wordpress address“ and „site address“ are both the same as http:// mydomainname which is what I’ve always thought of as my url, both before and after I moved. On my OLD admin page (.com) I can’t see my „wordpress address under general settings. How do I differentiate?

    You will still have to manually update the siteurl option in order to access the Administration Panel, but then, it will update all your stuff : posts (including pages and custom post types), excerpts, medias, custom fields, options, GUIDs.

    Yeah, this seems like a mostly un-useful plugin unfortunately. @chuckreynolds and @wpstudio advice below are both useful, use BackupBuddy (because it handles the search/replace, or do it manually with those SQL queries.

    However, one thing that I’ve run across on multiple occasions is that some plugins are using serialized data strings to store data and a simple SQL search/replace won’t update that data. BackupBuddy search/replace does account for serialized data, but I’m not sure it checks recursively.

    My method for migrating sites is using a mix of BackupBuddy, then running the awesome Serialization Fix script from Interconnectit.com. http://interconnectit.com/124/search-and-replace-for-wordpress-databases/

    I migrated a Multisite installation where the client had used a plugin that stored it’s data in serialized arrays and after the migration over 300 content blocks were missing. Running the script above saved the day;)
