MySQL string replace

mysql, replace

Solution

UPDATE your_table
SET your_field = REPLACE(your_field, 'articles/updates/', 'articles/news/')
WHERE your_field LIKE '%articles/updates/%'

Now rows that were like

`http://www.example.com/articles/updates/43`

will be

`http://www.example.com/articles/news/43`

Problem

I have a column containing urls (id, url): ``` http://www.example.com/articles/updates/43 http://www.example.com/articles/updates/866 http://www.example.com/articles/updates/323 http://www.example.com/articles/updates/seo-url http://www.example.com/articles/updates/4?something=test ``` I'd like to change the word "updates" to "news". Is it possible to do this with a script?
