website looks broken affter migrating to new domain/server
The website is mizakandpacetti.com. We fixed it by going into each page and making a small change and saving. But what I'm wondering is if this happens again is there a way I can "touch" all pages w/o having to do it manually? thanks

Hi Ryan,
Thank you for contacting us.
Manually updating each page is the best solution for now. This issue may be related to how Brizy compiles pages, and saving them forces a refresh. Some users have also resolved it using the Better Search Replace plugin to update multiple pages at once - https://support.brizy.io/hc/en-us/community/posts/24486110770578
If you have any further questions, please let us know.

Hey so this happened again. Is there a more permanent solution or something I can do differently to prevent this from happening in the future?

Hi Ryan,
Thanks for following up.
While we don’t have a permanent fix for this, we can share some best practices for migrating websites. This issue isn’t unique to Brizy, it’s something that can also occur with other page builders after migrating a site to a new domain or server. It usually happens due to how page builders store content and styling data, especially when URLs or file paths change during migration.
Here are a few steps that might help:
1. Use a migration tool that properly handles serialized data, such as Duplicator or All-in-One WP Migration.
2. Run a search and replace to update any old domain references, Better Search Replace is a great tool for this.
3. Clear your site, browser, and server cache, and re-save your permalinks via Settings > Permalinks.
4. If the layouts are broken after migration, you’ll also need to open each affected page in Brizy and re-save them. This usually restores the layout and styling.Best regards,
