I need to rename all of my links... any short way?

[readjono]

I've just moved my forum on to a new server, along with a series of sound files, which I regularly posts links to.

Now the hosts have been kind enough to redirect people to the new location, but they said I will need to update them sometime soon.

Is there any script that will rename all of the URLs in forum posts that point to this address?

i.e I want to rename http://subdomain.domain.co.uk/audio/music.mp3 to http://www.newdomain.co.uk/sound/music.mp3

I don't think there's a short way. But correct me if I'm wrong.

That's a pain. Didn't know if there were any queries that would do it.

Hmmm, a easy way as i do this sometimes to replace code, i use Edit+, you could take a backup of your forum via a sql file and edit it in Edit+, use the replace function Edit+ has to search out the link and replace the part you want edited.

Ie:
Find what box = http://subdomain.domain.co.uk/audio
Replace with box = http://www.newdomain.co.uk/sound

As it simply replaces the text every time you click find next, it shoudlnt take you that long to do, then simply import the backup sql file.
