It is built for the common migration jobs: moving from HTTP to HTTPS, switching domains, or cleaning up an old CDN or media URL. Unlike a plain SQL find-and-replace, this plugin correctly handles **serialized data**. It unpacks serialized arrays and objects (the format many themes and plugins use to store settings and page-builder content), replaces the text inside, and repacks it so your data stays valid. #### Key features * A safe two-step flow: **Preview** every change first, then **Apply** — the apply step is locked until you confirm you have a backup. * **Whole word only** and **Match case** options, so searching “Unlock” need not touch “Unlocked”. * Serialized-data aware, so page-builder and theme option data is not corrupted. * A **heads-up warning** when matches are found inside page-builder or serialized data (e.g. Elementor), where a replacement could affect your layout. * Search across posts, post meta, options, terms, term meta, and comments — you choose which. * Optional regular-expression matching (the unsafe `/e` modifier is blocked). * Batched processing to keep memory use low on large sites. * Automatically clears caches after a change — for every major page builder and caching plugin — so edits show on the front end. * A downloadable CSV log of every change. * A WP-CLI command for scripted or large migrations. * No tracking, no external requests, no ads, no upsells. #### Who makes this Ethereal Link Replacer is developed by **Manuel Zela** at [Ethereal Web Solution](https://etherealwebsolution.com/).

Changes made in a real (non-dry-run) pass ** cannot be undone from within the plugin**. Always take a complete database backup before running a live replacement, and preview with a dry run first. ## Installazione 1. Upload the `ethereal-link-replacer` folder to the `/wp-content/plugins/` directory, or install the plugin through the WordPress Plugins screen. 2. Activate the plugin through the **Plugins** screen in WordPress. 3. Go to **Link Replacer** in the admin menu. 4. Enter your search and replacement values, choose the tables, run a **dry run**, then run for real once you are satisfied. ## FAQ ### Does it handle serialized data? Yes. Serialized arrays and objects are unpacked, edited, and repacked so string lengths stay correct and the data remains valid. ### Can I undo a replacement? Not from the plugin. Because it writes directly to the database, you should always keep a backup and preview with a dry run before running for real. ### Can I use it from the command line? Yes. Example: ``` wp ethlr replace --search="https://old.com" --replace="https://new.com" --dry ``` Remove `--dry` to apply the changes. Add `--regex` to treat the search value as a regular expression. ### Will it change my site URL? The `siteurl` and `home` options are skipped on purpose to avoid locking you out. Change those from **Settings General**. ## Recensioni ![](https://secure.gravatar.com/avatar/1c70f37cf968d290fdaec49dbbe63ad8d753088b0e52b1b55b51f0cc8dafd706? s=60&d=retro&r=g) ### 󠀁[Excellent](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/excellent-14351/)󠁿 [scorpio129](https://profiles.wordpress.org/scorpio129/) 29 Settembre 2026 Five Star ⭐️ ![](https://secure.gravatar.com/avatar/1a7daa5aaa5bdf978fa7af13b3815772633143e49f55b8708959c44d4f4f9faa? s=60&d=retro&r=g) ### 󠀁[Fantastic Plugin for Replacing Links and Words](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/fantastic-plugin-for-replacing-links-and-words/)󠁿 [lunahome](https://profiles.wordpress.org/lunahome/) 28 Settembre 2026 I tried Ethereal Link Replacer and it’s fantastic—I was able to easily replace links and words across my website! ![](https://secure.gravatar.com/avatar/0712457dba4ddf85c79d2a65aa6b34e7782948df362fbe04c53e6ffae914ae27? s=60&d=retro&r=g) ### 󠀁[E very useful plugin](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/e-very-useful-plugin/)󠁿 [ZED Technology](https://profiles.wordpress.org/storyc/) 18 Settembre 2026 E very useful plugin, not only for the links. is great for the text string also [ Leggi tutte le recensioni di 3 ](https://wordpress.org/support/plugin/ethereal-link-replacer/reviews/) ## Contributi e sviluppo “Ethereal Link Replacer” è un software open source.
