<h4>Tips for Using Search & Replace</h4>
Backup Your Database – While the plugin is safe to use, it’s always a good idea to make a backup before making changes.
Common mistakes to avoid when replacing text:
<ul>
<li>Partial Matches – Ensure that you’re not replacing partial matches that could affect unintended content. For example, replacing “cat” could affect “category” or “concatenate”.</li>
<li>Case Sensitivity – Be mindful of case sensitivity when replacing text. If you’re looking to replace “Cat” with “Dog”, ensure that you’re not affecting “cat” or “CAT”.</li>
<li>URL Replacements – Always use the same format for both the search and replace values. For example if your search term has a trailing slash, ensure that the replacement term also has a trailing slash. E.g., “example.com/” to “example.net/” instead of “example.com/” to “example.net”.</li>
</ul>
<h4>Getting Started</h4>
After installing Search & Replace Everything by WPCode, look for the new menu item under <code>WP Admin > Tools > WP Search & Replace</code>. From there, you can start managing your content and perform find and replace operations for text or images across your entire website.

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– Update outdated or HTTP→HTTPS URLs.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.
