### Changing your domain name
If you haven't federated yet, you can change your domain name in the DB. **Warning: do not do this after you've federated, or it will break federation.**
```
-- Post
update post set ap_id = replace (ap_id, 'old_domain', 'new_domain');
update post set url = replace (url, 'old_domain', 'new_domain');
update post set body = replace (body, 'old_domain', 'new_domain');
update post set thumbnail_url = replace (thumbnail_url, 'old_domain', 'new_domain');
delete from post_aggregates_fast;
insert into post_aggregates_fast select * from post_aggregates_view;
-- Comments
update comment set ap_id = replace (ap_id, 'old_domain', 'new_domain');
update comment set content = replace (content, 'old_domain', 'new_domain');
delete from comment_aggregates_fast;
insert into comment_aggregates_fast select * from comment_aggregates_view;
-- User
update user_ set actor_id = replace (actor_id, 'old_domain', 'new_domain');
update user_ set avatar = replace (avatar, 'old_domain', 'new_domain');
