# WordPress Database migration (string replacement) script

---

When you move WordPress to another host you usually need to update database with new URLs inside a lot of pages. Such URLs can be placed inside serialized strings, BLOBs or objects. 

This is a tool to simplify string replace operations across the whole WordPress database or specific tables. 

#### Script usage

* Download latest stable tag.

* Find the file `/build/wp-host-update.php` and copy it to your folder with WordPress installation.

* **Backup your database!**

* Open in your browser `http://domain.com/optional/path/to/wordpress/wp-host-update.php` (replace with your WordPress URL at the beginning)

* Follow the instructions in your browser.

* If everything was fine - remove script from production server!

(In case of fail - use your backup to restore the database and try one more time)

#### Repository structure

Repository has 2 parts:

1. The script source files inside `/app/` folder. These super simple MVC/OOP scripts which process page requests and views render.

2. In the root folder you can find `builder.php` file. This one is used to collect all "app" into one single script and compress it a bit to minimize file size.

#### Changelog

* Version 2.1202.*

  * Added new option to run "light weight" replace. It skips numeric fields and some special fields like dates, meta_keys etc.

  * Added support for run queries in blocks to prevent memory limit on tables with too many rows

* Version 2.1201.*

  * Reset time limit to prevent script to be blocked by timeout

* Version 2

  * Convert all fields in all tables.

  * Simple MVC framework with minimizer/builder.
