I purchased your plugin and clicked UPDATE URLs and this is what happened

All the sliders and header images are missing and all the pdf links are calling incorrectly

See one of the pdf links below
the / is missing between.org and wp-content. It will pull the pdfs if I manually enter the / between org/wp-content

  1. Hi Katrin,

    It appears you entered the old url with a trailing / at the end and the new url without one. This will cause the new urls to not have the missing slash. To prevent this from happening in the future, you may use the url testing functionality built into this plugin which will catch and automatically fix these types of errors.

    As far as fixing goes, you may use the following steps to repair the urls

    1. Run the plugin with the following settings to add the missing slashes
      1. OLD : http://deerlakevillage.org
      2. NEW : http://deerlakevillage.org/
    2. Run the plugin a second time to remove any urls with duplicate trailing slash
      1. OLD: http://deerlakevillage.org//
      2. NEW: http://deerlakevillage.org/

    That should do it!

    Have a great weekend!
