== Description ==
When moving your WordPress site to a new domain or server, you will likely run into a need to run a search/replace on the database for everything to work correctly. Fortunately, there are several plugins available for this task, however, all have a different approach to a few key features. This plugin consolidates the best features from these plugins, incorporating the following features in a simple, ad-free plugin:
* Serialization support for all tables
* The ability to select specific tables
* The ability to run a "dry run" to see how many fields will be updated
* No server requirements aside from a running installation of WordPress
* WordPress Multisite support
The search/replace functionality is heavily based on interconnect/it's great and open-source Search Replace DB script, modified to use WordPress native database functions to ensure compatibility.
