 * Hi,
 * I just wanted to point out that the plugin description is a bit misleading.
    
   As this site hosts only free plugins, the descriptions should only concern the
   free version of a plugin, not the pro version.
 * However, in the main description of the plugin, we can read :
    “Migrates your
   database by running find & replace on URLs and file paths, handling serialized
   data, and saving an SQL file.” This is not totally right as it seems the serialized
   data handling is only available in the pro version. So it should be removed from
   the plugin description, to avoid people deception and time loss. Thanks.
 * Regards,
 * Patric

 * Hey Patric
 * Actually the free version of the plugin does handle replacements in serialized
   data. I assume this wasn’t working for you, could you let us know what happened–
    - Was this all serialized data?
    - Or a specific piece of data?
 * Cheers
