Go Live Update Urls PRO
Change the domain on your site with one click.
Change your site’s domain with confidence.
Go Live Update Urls PRO takes all the guesswork out of changing your WordPress domain. Click a single button and this plugin updates every URL on any WordPress site, including yours.
Here are some features we think you will like.
Plugin Tables
Many WordPress plugins will create custom database tables and store serialized data inside of them. This can create a real problem when trying to replace a URL. Go Live Update Urls PRO is the only plugin on the market that is smart enough to detect this type of data and update it without any issues. This detection allows this plugin to update only what is needed and keep things impressively fast and lightweight. Update the data created by your plugins with confidence.
URL Testing
Before you make any changes to your site you can click a readily available button to test the new URL. This plugin goes through common mistakes and lets you know if there are any issues. If issues are found an option will be displayed to automatically fix issues for you. It also checks the new URL against your server to make sure everything is ready to go server-side. Catch issues before they happen with URL testing.
Site Address History
Once this plugin is activated, all changes you make to your site address via General Settings or Go Live, will be tracked and viewable. Not sure exactly what your old and new URL settings should be? No problem. With Site Address History, you can see exactly what they used to be and what they are now. A convenient "Use" button copies the URLs from history to the correct fields. If the site address changed in the past 24 hours, the old and new URL will be automatically prefilled for you.
URL Counting
URL counting provides real-time information about which tables and sections contain URL that need updating. As updates occur, a tally of the updated tables and sections is displayed. Coupled with a progress bar and a total count, you can be confident everything updated as planned. Each plugin execution is recorded in history, allowing you to review the number of URL changed and their locations. Try out the demo to witness the counting in action. We're quite proud to say, "It's really cool!"
Site Sections
Sometimes you only want to change the domain on a certain type of content. Sometimes you just want to know exactly what to expect when you click submit. Go Live Update Urls PRO organizes your content into intuitive and understandable sections. Simply uncheck the sections you don't want to update and they won't. If you prefer to see a full table list, there is a simple button which will show you everything. Counting and reporting works on both the section and the table views.

Priority support is having your own support team standing by to make sure you are successful. In-depth troubleshooting, guidance, styling assistance, extending, and filtering are just a few things included with Priority Support. You also get access to the members only support area.

I was recommended this plugin by Bluehost with my first site and I have now used it on more than 30 sites without a single issue.
I’m always nervous to hit the “big blue button” knowing that it changes my database directly. Each time in less than 10 seconds I get the success message and I feel better. Being nervous for no reason is a lot better than spending hours manually switching things over like I used to.

Works great! I tried other plugins and they didn’t complete the job. This one changed all URL’s in one sweep.

If I could, I’d give this plugin 6 stars because it is unbelievably good.
If you’re in need of changing your domain, then you should really try this plugin.
It works right out of the box with nothing complicated.
I have to say that i could have saved myself hours of trying other plugins if I would have found this one first.

This plugin did the job when it was run but does not change the links when new pages are added. Each time someone adds an old link to the content I have to run this again manually.

I’m sorry to hear the plugin did not work as expected for your.
While it sounds useful to have a plugin which automatically checks and updates content each time a post is saved, it is beyond the scope of what this plugin is intended for. Actually, there are probably a few plugins out there that do that kind of thing. This plugin’s purpose it to change everything in the database in one go when switching a site over, instead of an ongoing content monitoring.
Typically if you want a link replaced in content as you go, this may be done via a filter or using a redirect plugin. Please reach out to support and we will show you how to set this up.

It worked as expected.

I handled a migration from wp.com that ended up pulling in only some of the images. The Media Library was missing most of what should have been there. The images in the posts remained on the old server. They were loading, so without digging, nobody would notices those images were being remotely served until the old site was shut down. I had the uploads files themselves, but now I had to at least link to those on the new server. I disabled extra image processing (SmushIt) and worked the problem with plugins.
I tried Auto Upload Images plugin, and it worked somewhat. It captured some of those remote images and pulled them in. Helpful, but incomplete. Those it captured did end up in the Media Library, so yay for that. Without a log, though, I don’t know what worked and what didn’t.
For the rest, I figured I had to just change the URLs in the post content. I used Better Search Replace, and it caught a lot more references, but again missed many. I could not detect a pattern though. It was not timing out. It was just missing references in the Posts table. And it was finding references in other tables, including the options table. I went directly into the SQL table to investigate, but couldn’t find what it was seeing. I was using the free version of Better Search Replace, so I didn’t have any logs to refer to.
Because this is such a common problem in migrations using Export/Import, I kept looking for a plugin, and that’s when I saw Go Live Update URLs. I thought what the heck. And this plugin found what was not found by these other plugins. All of my img links to the old server are now pointing to the new site. Many images still exist only in the filesystem, not in the Media Library. But I can live with that.
This plugin is now my first go-to next time I encounter this.
As to why the other plugins and even direct queries to the database missed what this plugin found, I figure I must have done something wrong. Not escaping characters or something.

Many thanks Mat! When I need the plugin again, your plugin will be the one I go to. ?
Abe Prangishvili –
the best plugin !

I did not want to pay for a plugin so I tried every other plugin I could find that did search and replace and they all broke my site.
I purchased this plugin and it worked perfectly straight away. The plugin ran so fast I thought it didn’t change anything, but it changed everything in one shot.

Found out after using the plug in that my development website (wp.domain.com) with cloud installation of WordPress at host provider was on a different server than my placeholder production website (domain.com) built with a cloud installation of a different tool at the host provider. The production website on the other server was thus not going to move itself out of the way to let the plug in do everything the end customer might wish for. The host provider has since put changes into motion and from first glances at the wp.domain.com content seems pretty sure that the plug in got the urls ready, and when the server adjustment are replicated with the worldwide servers, the WordPress material will in fact be usable at domain.com, and I will be finally be able to get back into the WP admin via domain.com/wp-admin and close any small gaps. I will edit the review with the final conclusion. Hoping for a perfect result. IT savvy but relatively speaking. Laypeople suffer from IT lingo/detail overload, which is why we buy plug-ins!
