Introduction

Replace

DB Replacer - search and replace in your Joomla! database.

DB Replacer enables you to search and replace in any table in your database.

It even supports searching with case sensitivity.

Sometimes you need to replace something in all your articles. That takes hours doing it the conventional way: open article, change, save article, open next article, etc...

With DB Replacer this takes a few seconds.

DB Replacer gives you a preview of what is going to be replaced, so you know what you are doing before actually replacing anything.

WARNING: DB Replacer replaces stuff right in your database in the places you tell it too. This can - if you replace the wrong stuff - break your site. So be careful and only use this if you know what you are doing.

Hi All,

The is product as all the functions (and then some). You have the whole MySYQ functions at your disposal
Ease of use
Simply search and replace, the search range is infinite. However, for more complex searches you will need to know Regular Expression

Documentation
Documentation accompanied with video tutorials is fantastic
I used this to: I don't usually write reviews (too lazy) but I felt compelled to announce just how much time this product has saved me. I have over 1000 articles, making a change all articles would have taken me months (and that's if I got it right in the first change).
