    I took a backup of a fresh website (the only thing there are the basic pages – Privacy, Terms, Disclaimer).

    After I imported the backup to a fresh WP install, the domain name from the copied backup didnt change in the new install.

    Here is what I did:

    Setup fresh WP install with basic pages
    In Settings>General, the site name is [Site Title]
    On the basic pages like Privacy, Disclaimer, etc, I had the name of the old domain (example DomainName.com). This is not a link, but just a mention of the domain.
    I then did the backup.

    After importing into a fresh install, I expected that the DomainName.com inside the basic pages will change to the new Domain name. But it didn’t. But on the same page where it had https://DomainName.com (with https which is actually a link) the changes happened.

    Is there a way I can get the changes to happen without Https?

    Thanks

    You can use the find/replace tool on the export page. Export only the database and then search for the DomanName.com and replace it with the new DomanName.com.
    Once you export the file, you can import it back and it should work.

    The thing is, I create a lot of WP sites, so I basically export one which I love, then import it to many new blogs and do one or 2 edits to get it ready.

    So there is no way it can detect them and change them during import?
