SELECT/LIKE works but UPDATE/REPLACE doesn't
I am trying to use phpMyAdmin to change a setting directly in a Joomla database. I have determined that the setting is part of the `attribs` field of the `jml_content` table:
If I don't want to show tags in an article then `attribs` has a value of
...show_tags":""...
whereas if I do want to show tags then `attribs` has a value of
...show_tags":"1"...
Using SELECT and LIKE on '%show_tags":""%' correctly identifies the records that need changing, however, when I use
UPDATE `jml_content` SET `attribs` = REPLACE(`attribs`, '%show_tags":""%', '%show_tags":"1"%')
it does not work!
I would very much appreciate if someone could explain why it doesn't work and what I should change to make it work.
