<li><strong>No file modifications</strong> – Your theme and plugin files remain untouched</li>
<li><strong>Update-safe</strong> – Replacements persist through updates</li>
<li><strong>Reversible</strong> – Simply disable or delete replacements to restore original text</li>
<li><strong>Efficient</strong> – Replacements are cached for optimal performance</li>
</ol>
<h4>Developer Friendly</h4>
<p>Includes hooks and filters for developers:</p>
<ul>
<li><code>etrp_replacement_text</code> – Filter text before replacement</li>
<li><code>etrp_replacement_result</code> – Filter text after replacement</li>
