 * Hi all,
 * Dennis here. I am webmastering for a Bed & Breakfast client website. I’ve been
   working on a rebranded site with a domain name that just has the word ‘blog’ 
   attached to her current website. Example, XYZ.com would be her current site domain
   name and XYZblog.com is the rebranded site that I am almost finished with. I 
   plan on pointing her current site domain to the server that houses the rebranded
   wordpress website this weekend. I have all of the technical necessities in place
   in order to change the domain name of this rebranded wordpress site including
   modifiying the wp-config.php file, the MySQL database and settings—>general WordPress
   address and Site address changes, do a ‘find and replace’ text on each page that
   will make the url’s faithful to the new domain name. My question is, once I do
   all the technical formalities and point her current domain name to the server
   that holds the rebranded website, will the permalinks automatically change? Will
   the main nav menu links automatically change? I’ve done this procedure once before
   but forget the answers to these questions.
 * Thanks.
 * Dennis

 * Assuming you’re doing the search/replace with a plugin like [Better Search and Replace](https://wordpress.org/plugins/better-search-replace/),
   yes.

 * Hi Steven,
 * Thanks for the input. I did the search and replace with Mac’s textedit app. It
   worked great!
