Powerful Database Search and Replace Extension! 

Now you can specify a text string to replace through out your database.  The quickest way to go through all the content on your site and replace text.

Warning!

This tool is so powerful that it could damage your site if you aren't careful.  It can perform a replace on every occurrence of a string in tables that are necessary for Joomla to run properly.  To help with this, we have provided you with a means of narrowing your search to only tables that fit a certain prefix criteria.

Perfect component for Virtuemart or Docman!

We have customers using this in multiple environments.  If you use Virtuemart, then you can use the virtuemart prefix (usually jos_vm) to limit your search to just the virtuemart tables.  You could even limit it to "ps_product" so that the search and replace is only on your products.  And now with our new preview feature you can make sure you know the table and field names that your addon uses.

Testimonials

"I contacted Tom about an old shipping error issue on our site and not only did he respond quickly, he identified and corrected the problem fast.  Compared to what other companies quoted to repair the same job, he saved us time and bundle of money.  I will definitely contact him for future site issues."
