Adds SearchReplace editing controls to the visual content editor (TinyMCE).
A light weight plug-in that adds the Search and Replace editing controls from the full version of TinyMCE, optimized for WordPress. Note that this may not work in conjunction with other plug-ins that significantly alter or replace the visual editor’s default behavior.
Note that the SearchReplace controls are contained in the “kitchen sink” toolbar, toggled with the last button on the first row of controls.

The Easy Search Replace plugin lets you find and replace any text, HTML, or URL across your WordPress site in real time—without editing files or the database. 
It’s the safest way to do search and replace on front-end output. Update branding, fix old links, or remove footer credit with a few clicks.
Target replacements precisely with: 
– CSS selectors (e.g., <code>.footer</code>, <code>#site-title</code>, <code>h2</code>) 
– Post Types (Posts, Pages, CPTs) 
– Specific Post IDs (comma separated) 
– Exact URLs (one per line)
Why it’s safe: 
All changes are applied dynamically at render time. Disable the plugin and your original content is unchanged.
Popular use cases 
– Remove or replace theme footer credits. 
– Replace company names, links, or copyright lines. 
– Update outdated or HTTP→HTTPS URLs. 
– Find/replace only inside specific HTML elements. 
– Limit changes to selected posts/pages/URLs.
