Search and Replace
Bulk-replace text across your site's database
Search & Replace swaps text everywhere in your site's database in one go -
the classic use is fixing an old domain or URL across every post, page, and
setting. It runs wp search-replace under the hood.
Open your site → Tools → Search and replace → Run.
How to use it
- Enter the text to find in Search and the new text in Replace with.
- Click Dry Run first - it previews the changes without touching anything, showing a table of where matches were found (Table, Column, Hits, Type).
- If the preview looks right, click Apply to make the changes.
After a successful run, MagicWP automatically flushes your page and object caches so the live site reflects the new values.
Back up first. This edits the database directly
Great for domain and URL changes
Moving to a new domain or from http to https? Search for the old URL (e.g.
http://old-domain.com) and replace it with the new one to update links,
images, and serialized settings across the whole site.
