Thanks but I would prefer not to add another plugin. I’m now looking into how I would use phpMyAdmin -> Search -> Find -> as regular expression to find the exact word “MOD” and nothing else.

How do I write a regular expression to just search for “MOD”? I’ve tried

REGEXP ‘^the’

Just to see if I can find a very common word in the posts and metapost and I get zero results.

Ok. In phpMyAdmin -> database_name_here -> SQL (tab) I used:

SELECT * FROM database_name_here.database_table_here WHERE (CONVERT(meta_value USING utf8) REGEXP ‘[[:<:]]MOD[[:>:]]’)

And that was how I was able to find “MOD” and only “MOD”. Thanks for the help.

PS. I also tried the Search (tab) again and was able to find “MOD” if I searched for it with a space in front and behind like ” MOD “. Most likely will also need to check for ” MOD,” and ” MOD.” to make sure I don’t miss it where a “,” or “.” follow.
