Hello, Trying to set up a hot site as a backup to my production site. I am using a plugin that does a backup of all files and the database while performing a search and replace of all instances of the production site URL with the hot site URL. As far as I can see from a review of the database tables, all instances of the production site have been replaced with the URL of the hot site in the hot site database. However, all the source links to the PDFs that I had set up in the 3d flip book plugin are now blank. Individually, I can go in and select the appropriate file from the media library, and that flip book is restored to full functionality. Do you have any ideas or solutions that can help make the migration complete?

Hi, the database data are serialized with php array serialization https://www.php.net/manual/en/function.serialize.php, it serialize strings in next format s:size:value; so you need to fix sizes as well, otherwise the serialization is broken.
