• We used to use Search Regex exclusively to manage content changes on large site, but due to glaring limitations the plugin is no longer useful. It is not kept up to date with the latest WP framework updates, doesn’t scan custom post types, and can’t search content inside custom developed content modules. It was good while it lasted, but no more.

  • Love the Search Regex plugin, but I agree: Being able to search custom posts types would be helpful. Also to restrict posts by custom post type.

    You could offer these features by adding a filter in /searches/post-content.php, within the find(} function, right under $sql =…, allowing us to modify that SQL statement. Like:

    
    if ( has_filter( 'searchregex_sql' ) ) {
        $sql = apply_filters( 'searchregex_sql', $sql );
    }
