   Using Select Business Directory Plugin version 2.1.4.1
   I just moved my WordPress site from http://www.oldurl.com to http://www.newurl.com
   In that process I seem to have lost all of the thumbnail images for every listing.

   Is there anything I can do to get them back?
   I don't want to have to go into each directory listing to re-assign.

   Thanks,
   Tania

   Hi Tania,

   Well, the images would be saved with domain-specific URLs, so they are all prefixed by oldurl.com. There are a couple of ways to handle this:

   - You can change your .htaccess to auto-redirect requests from oldurl->newurl for images.
   - You can go into the database and update the records used by BD with queries, although this will still be a one-at-a-time fix.

   Basically, there's no easy answer here, as we have to save the location of the images for display and it happened to keep the URL in it.
