How to change the site URL for WordPress in the database:

First of all, storing the domain name for your web application in the database is a really bad idea. For whatever reason WordPress does this. It also serializes content before it's inserted. So moving from one domain to another, most commonly from development to staging to production, can be a hassle. Two major things must happen for it to be a seamless migration; Find & replace the domain and fix the serialized url's containing the old domain. This tool does that for you. No need to run a bash script on every migration. Simply drag the sql dump into the square and set a new domain.
