Move WordPress to another host

SQL query to update wp_options records that are specific to the host of a WordPress site. Run this query after copying the DB to another server (if this URL is different). Useful for deploying WordPress from a dev server to a live environment.

# Dev to Production
SET @uri_from = 'www.devurl.local';
SET @uri_to = 'www.liveurl.net';
UPDATE wp_options SET `option_value` = REPLACE(`option_value`, @uri_from, @uri_to)
WHERE `option_value` LIKE CONCAT( "%", @uri_from, "%" );
UPDATE wp_posts SET `guid` = REPLACE(`guid`, @uri_from, @uri_to);
UPDATE wp_posts SET `post_content` = REPLACE(`post_content`, @uri_from, @uri_to);
UPDATE wp_postmeta SET `meta_value` = REPLACE(`meta_value`, @uri_from, @uri_to);
