What is Go Live Update Urls? At a basic level, Go Live Update Urls is a search and replace tool for a WordPress database. The plugin goes through every table in the database and replaces whatever is entered in the "Old URL" field with whatever is entered in the "New URL" field. The plugin will update anything in the database such as:

• Domains
• Email addresses
• Gutenberg blocks
• Links
• Shortcodes
• Text
• Usernames
• Widgets
• Really anything which can be entered in a text field.

What Makes Go Live Update Urls Special? Domain Considerations Updating a domain or URL in a database is not always as simple as just matching one text and changing it to another. Domains may include things like subdomains or email addresses which end up duplicated or broken when doing a simple replace. The Go Live Update Urls plugin automatically detects and handles special domain circumstances to give you an accurate update every time without side effects. WordPress Data Types WordPress stores various data types in the database, some of which do not support straightforward replacement methods. An example of this is serialized data. The Go Live Update URLs plugin has built-in support for WordPress data types, which automatically:

1. Parses the data into a replaceable format.
2. Updates the data.
3. Reverts the data to its original format and saves the updated version.

Gracefully Handle Serialized Data WordPress stores arrays and objects in the database as serialized data. Serialized data cannot be updated using a simple search and replace method because serialized data contains a length value which would be incorrect after a simple replace. Go Live Update Urls gracefully and accurately replaces serialized data in any WordPress Core database table. The PRO version replaces serialized data in any table. Another consideration with serialized data is invalid data left behind from plugins which are no longer in use. Go Live Update Urls is the only tool capable of detecting and managing updates to invalid serialized data without failing or breaking your site. Performance A feature unique to Go Live Update URLs is that the plugin identifies database rows and columns containing complex data types and updates only the necessary items. This targeted approach significantly improves performance and minimizes the load on the database server during updates.
