<h4>Tips for Using Search & Replace</h4>
Backup Your Database – While the plugin is safe to use, it’s always a good idea to make a backup before making changes.
Common mistakes to avoid when replacing text:
<ul>
<li>Partial Matches – Ensure that you’re not replacing partial matches that could affect unintended content. For example, replacing “cat” could affect “category” or “concatenate”.</li>
<li>Case Sensitivity – Be mindful of case sensitivity when replacing text. If you’re looking to replace “Cat” with “Dog”, ensure that you’re not affecting “cat” or “CAT”.</li>
<li>URL Replacements – Always use the same format for both the search and replace values. For example if your search term has a trailing slash, ensure that the replacement term also has a trailing slash. E.g., “example.com/” to “example.net/” instead of “example.com/” to “example.net”.</li>
</ul>
<h4>Getting Started</h4>
After installing Search & Replace Everything by WPCode, look for the new menu item under <code>WP Admin > Tools > WP Search & Replace</code>. From there, you can start managing your content and perform find and replace operations for text or images across your entire website.

Quick Search Replace provides a user-friendly interface to run comprehensive search and replace operations on your WordPress database. This tool is designed to search through every column of your selected tables, making it a powerful utility for site migrations (e.g., changing domains or switching to HTTPS).
It correctly handles serialized data and automatically flushes permalinks after a migration to prevent 404 errors.
Key Features:
<ul>
<li>Comprehensive Search: Performs replacements in all columns of the selected tables.</li>
<li>Serialization Support: Correctly handles serialized PHP arrays and objects.</li>
<li>Select Specific Tables: You have full control to choose exactly which tables to include in the operation.</li>
<li>Dry Run: Perform a “dry run” to see a report of how many database fields would be changed, without making any actual modifications.</li>
<li>Permalink Flushing: Automatically flushes WordPress rewrite rules after a live run to ensure your site’s links don’t break.</li>
<li>WordPress Multisite Support: Fully multisite-aware, listing all tables across the network.</li>
</ul>
EXTREME WARNING: This tool is powerful and modifies your database directly. Because it searches every column, it can change sensitive data like user logins, hashed passwords, and post GUIDs if they match your search string. ALWAYS create a full backup of your database before using this tool.

"I wish I had installed this plugin sooner — Quick search replace plugin would have saved me two hours of hunting bad URLs in the database by hand. I ran a “Dry Run” first to locate the problematic content, then ran the search-and-replace again and it worked perfectly. Highly recommended."
