  • Hi jazzyd, I’m a little unsure of your question. What don’t you simply open the article and edit it? Can you explain more why doing that wouldn’t work for you?

    There is a plugin that many people don’t know about. It comes with every browser, and it’s called: SEARCH. It does wonders only with a press of the enter key. Don’t overuse it though, it will slow down your database and in some cases has caused cancer in state of California.

    What he is asking is about a plug in like “replace words” (that allows you to replace one specified word across an entire site with a new specified word) Except he, like myself at the moment is looking for a plugin that has an additional option to choose just one page or a group of pages that are effected ONLY instead of the whole site.

    If anyone else can help that would be great.

    thanks you

    5 months later again, use the search function on your browser, or open the database dump in notepad and replace whatever you want.
