Thumbnail location in database

Where are the thumbnail links on Event Espresso stored? I’m trying to update the link in sql and changed them all in wp_posts under post_content and guid and the thumbs are still linking to the old site.

Please advise.

I also changed this:

UPDATE wp_events_detail SET event_meta = REPLACE (event_meta, ‘oldsite’, ‘newsite’)

Even though the sql is changed, when I view the code the image link is blank “”

I can manually change each image in the admin page, but is there a quicker way?

Hi Samatha,

I’ve used the WP migrate db plugin for cases like this. The event meta is stored as serialized data, so if you change the path without updating the index (length of the string that make up the value) the serialized data will get all messed up.

There is another plugin that is popular for migrating sites too, here’s a link:
