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 ;-)

Note: New in 2.9: It is also possible to do a search and replace from the command line. Please see Administration via command line for more information.
