About Search/Replace in DevKit

Publish date: 03/07/2025 •  Bug • Devkit-pro •  Gerard Godin

Hi,

 

I love DevKit, tremendously helpful in troubleshooting. 

 

I’ve finally gotten around to testing the newish Search/Replace functionality, and I find it’s in need of a bit of care. It doesn’t handle serialization?

I use beaver Builder as my page builder, and its data is saved in a serialized format in post_meta. Running a Search/Replace against it using DevKit breaks pages where modifications are made.

I have a tool to go through and re-serialize the broken records and that worked to bring back the page, so the issue seems clear.

It’d be great if you had that added. 

Thanks 🙂
