Changed domain name and lost customization

[rabtheme]

Hello,

I’ve just transitioned my staging site to use our main domain name and have lost most customization (header info, breadcrumbs, etc). The transition was a bit complicated due to also having an SSL certificate. Before making the domain switch, I updated the wordpress database like so, where ORIGINAL_URL was http://www.staging.roboticsandbeyond.org and NEW_URL was live site http://www.roboticsandbeyond.org:

UPDATE wp_options SET option_value = REPLACE(option_value, ‘ORIGINAL_URL’, ‘NEW_URL’);
UPDATE wp_postmeta SET meta_value = REPLACE(meta_value, ‘ORIGINAL_URL’, ‘NEW_URL’);
UPDATE wp_posts SET guid = REPLACE(guid, ‘ORIGINAL_URL’, ‘NEW_URL’);
UPDATE wp_posts SET post_content = REPLACE(post_content, ‘ORIGINAL_URL’, ‘NEW_URL’);

Did this somehow mess up my customization? Is there a way to get it back without redoing everything?

Thanks, Marybeth
