I have been using DB Replacer to correct and update data in several different fields of the database after migrating a big old 1.5 church site to 3.15.



As I backed up the database each time before using it, I felt very confident and after a good amount of use it has been successful.



I had an issue that it only works with the default Isis Admin template (not the Hathor one) and Peter the developer could not have been more helpful with this and another issue. Mind you, by the time I got his personal support I had purchased the Pro version, which was what I planned to do anyway (as it is even better) and for such a serious task as editing inside the database it was well worth the money.



Not only have I saved lots of time but I have also increased the new website quality by a good margin.



Well done Peter and thanks.

Saved me countless hours amending articles. I did a novice mistake, copy and paste from a word document. It put " " in every gap on every article 50+. Causing over-spill in my modules. DB Replacer just replaced them all with a space. Can't thank you enough.

Really a top notch tool for Joomla developers!

I needed to fix the image tags in about 160 articles on a new site.

This component is very very cool.

It allowed me to specify the string for which to search, and as I typed it in and specified the target table, it highlighted the changes that it was going to make so that I could pre-approve the changes.

The free version only does 50 records at a time, but it works very well, so I just did it three times.

THANKS for this EXCELLENT Component!

Highly Recommended!

BTW - MAKE A BACKUP FIRST, you never know when yo might need it.

What can I say?

To handle with care. You better know what you are doing and keep track.

But seriously, So much use cases.

You won't need it everyday.

But you will sleep peacefully knowing you have this one ready.

Was of great help for an upgrade from 1.5 to 2.5, after having used an extension to import most of the site, used DBReplacer to adapt components and do minor corrections and stuff.

I guess you can drive your joomla site from there...

Could not be more pleased. This extension is so easy to use. It can replace any content, (even keywords for SEO) with one click. This saved me literally three weeks of time, and my employer could not more happy. For $40 USD (DB Replacer Pro allows for the WHERE clause), it's a NO-BRAINER. Get it, you won't be disappointed, and the support is SPOT ON!

This tool is very useful to power administrators. With it you can easily replace something with something almost system wide. In example, you can fix broken static links on domain change.

That i dont like about it, is that as far this extension evolves, its actually becomes less and less feature complete - features previously available for free in 2.1 ("Where" option and regexp) was removed in later free version, moved to paid version. I appreciate developers hard working but i doubt this is right way.

This is a very useful tool if you want to replace similar data which were scattered in many pages of your Joomla website.

I contacted Peter (developer) after updating Tabber to the new Tabs. The syntax had changed. He immediately pointed me to this awesome tool. Peter is definitely one of the top Joomla! developers out there - no question!

initially i downloaded the free version just to check it out. Almost immediately i paid for the PRO version. This is an awesome product and has already saved me HOURS of manual fixing - been able to search and replace Categories on Articles - work done in 2 mins... BRAVO NoNumbers ...

I needed to change the background color and border color of some 500 tables. It would have taken me a week to finish the job. Utterly boring and disgusting work. Using DB Replacer, I finished the job in 2 minutes. Now for the rest of the week, I will just do nothing, and enjoy life.



Thank you for this extremely powerful and time saving tool.
