Hi,
I have a site which I want to keep the same but change the domain name on. I have duplicated the site to work with the new domain name. I dont want to have to go through each page and find the old name and replace with the new name as there are over 300 pages. Is there any way I can do a search on the database to find and replace the old name and replace with the new? Which tables might I have to search on?

I have used the find and replace tutorial for the text / html module and it was fantastic. All the referances were changed without any issues. Is there any way to do this for menu items which use links?

possibly, it will be a matter of identifying the table where the links are stored and then changing the find and replace procedure to update the table that you have identified.

Also, Engage Software has a free module called F3 that helps you do the search and replace for text files.
