Rather than mess around trying to find the serialised data that got messed up, just use a tool to migrate environments and avoid messing up serialised data. WP Migrate DB is a good one that handles serialised data properly. The free version does a great job, as long as you don’t have a huge database. The Pro version is the duck’s nuts, well worth the money.
