Deleting similar verbiage on each page at one time

  • I have a similar line of verbiage on each of my WP pages. I no longer want it to be there, on each page. Rather than going into each page to delete this similar content, is there an easy, safe, way to delete it all pages at once? I’m not interested in changing anything else, on each page

    The *same* or *similar*? Same is easy, as you can use a search and replace plugin like “better search and replace”. Similar? You’re going to have to manually edit pages.

    Thanks, Its exactly the same on each page. I have deleted the verbage on some pages. Does the plug in search for the verbiage, delete it and overlook each page where it has been deleted?

    search for “abc” and replace with nothing in the wp_posts table. If it doesn’t find “abc” nothing happens.

    Backup your database first, of course.
