  • Best Search & Replace Plugin

    "I wish I had installed this plugin sooner — Quick search replace plugin would have saved me two hours of hunting bad URLs in the database by hand. I ran a “Dry Run” first to locate the problematic content, then ran the search-and-replace again and it worked perfectly. Highly recommended."
