 * Hi
    Thanks for the help I’ve marked it resolved. The thing that has taked me 
   a long time tonight to grasp and I thought it worth documenting it here in case
   it catches any other ‘newbies’ out is that the conoical part of the url is important.
   so although [http://www.sitename.co.uk/dir/file](http://www.sitename.co.uk/dir/file)
   and [http://sitename.co.uk/dir/filename](http://sitename.co.uk/dir/filename) 
   are physically the same file it will create 2 records and they will show up on
   as two seperate instances. Still a timely reminder to be less casual in my addressing!
 * Thanks for your help I doubt that I would have got there without it, your tools
   and your patience.
 * Regards

 * Hello,
 * I am not sure what I am achieving with Better search and replace. When I run 
   it I can find some old URLs which are no longer used. However, I am not sure 
   what to do next to make the DB ok to help MLP? Do I delete the old entries from
   the database? I could convert their names to the current locations but that introduces
   duplicates into the DB
 * Sorry the structure of WP really isn’t my strong point so I am probably asking
   really basic questions.
 * Thanks

 * I have re-opened this case because I have corrected the underlying move problem
   but the duplicate folders problem still exists.
 * AlanP57 was kind enough to send me your diagnostic tool.
 * In MLP I see several 2012 folders several 2013 etc. in these folders there are
   months but they are not necessarily the same for each year thus 2012(10 may have
   01, 04 and 2012(2) may have 01,02,03 etc.
 * I used the library clean plugin and discovered that the media library was finding
   valid URLs for all of these items (they were duplicates but point to one file
   on the server)
 * I tried using reset database but while this clears the mlmplus tables I suspect
   that the problem is with wp_posts.
    When you re-activate MLP the duplcates re-
   appear.
 * If you scan folders you can see a report at the end that matches what I think
   is effectively subdir1 (month); directory name; url; top level directory (year)
   
   if you check in wp_posts these records are labelled “mgmlp_media_folder”
 * I wonder if I remove these records from wp_posts and reset the database will 
   this correct the problem of duplicate directories?
 * Regards

 * Thanks for the plugin which works really well. It has helped me to identify that
   the problem is not in Media library plus at all. The issue is to do with a poorly
   executed move of my wordpress site and Media library is ‘seeing’ the old domains
   as well.
    A really useful tool and it has really set me on the right track Thank
   you Regards

 * Update,
    I have got featured image so now can achieve the image and the post 
   using featured image. What I can’t do is have the image open at full size when
   you click through to full post.
