Changing the site name

[patdundee]

Hi Guys
I have a slight problem. My main site is http://www.mydomain and I have been working on a new version called test.mydomain. I changed every occurance of test. to www. in the database, I also changed all WP settings to www. and all code in the functions page
Everything worked except for the forms. They just would not display. So have have had to change it all back again.
I then tried exporting the form and importing it. The import said it imported fine, but the form is no where to be seen. I have rebooted the server and also deactivated the quform plug in and reactivated it. I still cannot see the form.

What is the best way to ensure that the forms work correctly when renaming a site from test. to www. please

Many thanks
Patrick

Hi Ally

Many thanks. I realised that about 30 minutes ago and used https://interconnectit.com/products/search-and-replace-for-wordpress-databases/ script which sorted the issue out 🙂

I did originally run a search and replace script within phpmyadmin but that obviously did not change the serialized fields.

Many thanks for replying.

P.S. I will drop another coffee over for you guys soon 🙂

Kind regards
Patrick
