Can’t replace URLs in TablePress

    After using Velvet Blues to replace my URLs, I found that the URLs in TablePress hadn’t been replaced. I found the instructions at https://www.ads-software.com/support/topic/tablepress-urls-after-moving-website/ and followed them, but it didn’t work for me.

    As I had previously successfully replaced all instances of yeshar.co.uk/kneif with kneif.info (without https:// prefix), I tried using the backslash as an escape character for the only place where the forward slash occurs, so I basically wrote the old URL as yeshar.co.uk\/kneif, but Velvet Blues tells me that 0 URLs have been updated.

    What do I need to do to replace the URLs?

    I’ve also tried the following replacements, but to no avail. Each time 0 URLs get replaced, and the tables still show the links pointing towards yeshar.co.uk/kneif instead of kneif.info/ :

    http:\/\/www.yeshar.co.uk\/kneif\/ > http:\/\/www.kneif.info\/

    http:\/\/yeshar.co.uk\/kneif\/ > http:\/\/kneif.info\/

    http:\/\/www.yeshar.co.uk\/kneif > http:\/\/www.kneif.info

    http:\/\/yeshar.co.uk\/kneif > http:\/\/kneif.info

    www.yeshar.co.uk\/kneif > www.kneif.info

    As I’ve got 100s of links embedded in TablePress tables, I’m really hoping to find a solution, so I won’t have to edit them all by hand. Thanks for any help!

    OK, ignore my question – just used Better Search Replace like the original poster in the link that I posted above, and it worked a treat! ??
