URL Cleanup

Replace references to pixels71.com with your live site URL across the database (including serialized data), Yoast SEO links, transients, and optionally plugin/theme files.

Why you need this

If you cloned a demo site or imported theme/demo content, you may still have references to pixels71.com (or other template/demo URLs) inside your database. This can cause issues like Google Ads “destination mismatch / disapproved”, broken media, or links pointing to the wrong domain as one of our client reported this issue.

The Nexsas Theme URL Cleanup Tool removes these template/demo references from your database in one run.

Before you run it (important)

  • Take a full backup: database + wp-content/uploads (and ideally a full site backup). This process permanently updates database content.
  • Run on the correct site: do this after your domain is final (or be prepared to repeat it later).
  • Understand the limitation (from the tool + video): after cleanup you will not be able to use:
    • Template Library
    • Demo Import

These features require an active connection and original references to Pixels71 servers; cleaning removes those references.

Run the Nexsas URL Cleanup Tool

  1. Open your WordPress admin.
  2. Go to Nexsas Theme Options (theme options panel).
  3. Find URL Cleanup.
  4. Confirm you have a full backup, then run Cleanup and click OK to proceed.
  5. Wait for completion (typically 2–3 minutes). You should see a success message indicating the URLs were cleaned.

What changes after cleanup

  • Template/demo URLs are removed from the database.
  • Some assets may disappear if they were being loaded from Pixels71 servers (example shown in the video: site logo becomes missing because it was referenced from a remote server).
  • In Elementor, Template Library may show “template not found” after cleanup.
  • In the dashboard, Demo Import will no longer import demos directly.

Post-cleanup checklist

  • Re-upload/set your Site Logo and any missing images via WordPress Media Library.
  • Re-save Elementor settings and regenerate CSS if needed.
  • Recheck key pages and menus for broken links.
  • If Google Ads was the trigger: re-run your crawl and resubmit ads after confirming all URLs point to your live domain.
