Search and replace tool
From MoodleDocs
- Convert to InnoDB
- Database transfer
- DB search and replace
- Question engine upgrade helper
- Spam cleaner
- Timezones updater
(Additional tools may be found elsewhere in the admin settings)
Admins can search and replace text e.g. URLs in their Moodle database using the search and replace tool at http://yourmoodlesite.org/admin/tool/replace/index.php (replacing yourmoodlesite.org with the address of your Moodle site). This is useful when a Moodle site is moved from one server to another.
Note: A database backup is highly recommended before running the search and replace ;-)
