## Description

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 touching
the database.
 It’s the safest way to do **search and replace** on front-end output.
Update branding, fix old links, swap outdated content, or **remove footer credit**
with a few clicks.

Target replacements precisely with:

 * Post Types (Posts, Pages, WooCommerce Products, any CPT)
 * Specific Post IDs (comma separated)
 * Exact URLs (one per line)

**Why it’s safe:**
 All changes are applied dynamically at render time. Your posts,
pages, and database stay untouched. Disable the plugin or toggle a rule off and 
your original content is back instantly.

**Popular use cases**

 * **Remove footer credit** — delete or replace any theme footer text, copyright
   notice, or “Powered by” link.
 * **Replace company names** — rebranding? Update every mention of your old name
   site-wide in seconds.
 * **Fix old links** — swap broken URLs, redirect HTTP  HTTPS links, or update moved
   resources.
 * **WooCommerce text changes** — rename “Add to cart” buttons, change checkout 
   labels, or translate WooCommerce strings without code.
 * **Hide plugin or theme branding** — remove “Built with Elementor”, “Jetpack stats”,
   or any injected text.
 * **Conditional content** — show different text to logged-in users, mobile visitors,
   or during specific date ranges (Pro).

### Features

**Free version** (up to 10 rules — existing installs with more keep them all):

 * Real-time **search and replace** for text, HTML, and URLs — no database changes.
 * Enable or disable each rule with a toggle (no need to delete and recreate).
 * Limit rules by **post type**, **post ID**, or **URL** (one per line).
 * Case-insensitive matching (Ignore Case option).
 * “**Don’t match if page contains**” safety switch — add a marker to any page you
   want to leave untouched.
 * Configurable “Skip HTML tags” setting — protect `<script>`, `<style>`, or any
   tag from being modified.
 * Multiple rules, executed in the order you define.
 * Lightweight: buffer filtering only starts if you have active rules.

**Pro features ([Easy Search Replace Pro](https://fluxpress.io/plugins/easy-search-replace/)):**

 * **CSS selector targeting** — restrict replacements to elements matching `.footer`,`#
   main`, `h1`, or any CSS selector. Inspect the element in your browser and paste
   the class or ID. Perfect for removing footer credits from a specific element 
   without affecting the rest of your page.
 * **Regex patterns** — full PHP regex with smart defaults. `.` matches newlines
   and patterns are UTF-8 aware by default. Write `<div class="x">.*?unwanted.*?
   </div>` and it just works.
 * **Match text between two markers** — replace everything between a “starts with”
   and “ends with” snippet without writing regex. Safer because it stops at the 
   first end marker.
 * **Scheduled rules** — activate rules only within specific date ranges, times 
   of day, or weekdays. Perfect for seasonal banners, holiday promotions, or timed
   content swaps.
 * **Audience & device targeting** — show different replacements for logged-in users
   vs guests, target specific user roles, or serve different content to desktop,
   mobile, or tablet visitors.
 * **Exclusion rules** — apply a rule everywhere EXCEPT specific post types, post
   IDs, or URLs.
 * **Import / Export** — export rules as JSON or CSV for backups. Bulk import hundreds
   of rules at once from CSV for agency migrations.
 * **Live Preview** — test any rule against a real page (even before you save it)
   and see exactly how many matches it will make, so you’re never guessing.
 * **Rule Analytics** — see how many times each rule has actually matched, right
   in the Analytics tab. Spot rules that never fire and clean them up.
 * **Visual selector picker** — click an element on your own site and Easy Search
   Replace fills in its CSS selector for you — no browser dev tools or CSS knowledge
   required.
 * **Recipe Library** — one-click templates for common jobs like removing “Powered
   by WordPress”, renaming WooCommerce buttons, or forcing HTTPS links. Each recipe
   is added disabled so you can review it first.
 * **Regex Tester** — write and test regular expressions inside the plugin with 
   live match highlighting before you apply them to your live site.
 * **Rule Sync between sites** — pull your rules from one site into another with
   a secure sync key. Perfect for agencies keeping staging and production in step.
 * **Cache-Aware Mode** — scheduled, role, and device rules keep working with page
   caching, and known caches (WP Rocket, LiteSpeed, and more) are purged automatically
   when you change a rule.
 * **Debug badge** — logged-in admins see a small “ESR” badge listing which rules
   ran on the current page, making troubleshooting effortless.
 * **Unlimited rules** — the free version covers up to 10 rules; Pro removes the
   cap entirely.

### Usage

### Privacy

The free version of Easy Search Replace collects no data and makes no external connections—
it runs in anonymous mode.

Licensing for the Pro edition is handled by Freemius. When you activate a Pro license,
Freemius records only the site URL needed to bind the license to your site; any 
diagnostic data is optional and never shared without your explicit consent.

No site content, emails, IP addresses, usernames, or passwords are ever collected.

## Installation

 1. Download the plugin ZIP from [WordPress.org](https://wordpress.org/plugins/easy-search-replace/).
 2. In WP Admin, go to **Plugins  Add New  Upload Plugin**.
 3. Upload the ZIP, click **Install Now**, then **Activate**.
 4. Go to **Settings  Easy Search Replace** to add your first rule.

Or search “Easy Search Replace” directly from **Plugins  Add New** in your WordPress
dashboard.

## FAQ

### Does this modify my database or theme files?

No. All replacements happen in the output buffer at runtime. Your posts, pages, 
and theme files stay completely untouched. Disable the plugin and everything reverts
instantly.

### How is Easy Search Replace different from Better Search Replace?

Better Search Replace and similar tools rewrite your **database** — a permanent,
one-time bulk change. Easy Search Replace works differently: it replaces text on
your site’s **output** in real time and never touches the database. So every rule
is instantly reversible (just toggle it off), safe to experiment with, and can do
things a database tool can’t — like targeting by CSS selector, user role, device,
or schedule. Use a database tool for permanent migrations; use Easy Search Replace
for safe, ongoing, conditional replacements.

### Can I remove theme footer credits?

Yes. Put the exact footer text in **Find**, leave **Replace** empty. With Pro, you
can also use a **CSS selector** (e.g., `.footer-credit`, `.site-info`) to target
only the footer element — so identical text elsewhere on your page stays untouched.

### Can I remove “Powered by WordPress”?

Yes. Set “Powered by WordPress” as the Find text and leave Replace empty. It works
with any theme. If your theme wraps it in a specific class, use that as a CSS selector
in Pro for even more precision.

### Will it work with page builders like Elementor, Divi, or WPBakery?

Yes. The plugin works on the final rendered HTML output, so it’s fully compatible
with Elementor, Divi, WPBakery, Beaver Builder, Bricks, GeneratePress, Kadence, 
and any theme or builder that produces standard HTML.

### Does it work with WooCommerce?

Yes. You can replace WooCommerce-generated text like button labels, checkout fields,
product descriptions, or any front-end string. For example, change “Add to cart”
to “Buy now” globally or only on specific product pages using Post ID targeting.

### Will it work with caching plugins?

Yes. Clear your cache after adding or updating rules so the cached version picks
up the new replacements. Compatible with WP Super Cache, W3 Total Cache, LiteSpeed
Cache, WP Rocket, and others.

### Do scheduled, role, or device rules work with page caching?

Yes, with Pro’s **Cache-Aware Mode**. Because a cached page is served to everyone,
conditional rules could otherwise show the wrong version to some visitors. Cache-
Aware Mode automatically keeps affected pages out of the cache (or simply warns 
you — your choice) and purges known caches — WP Rocket, LiteSpeed, and others — 
whenever you change a rule.

### What about CDN caching (Cloudflare, etc.)?

Same principle — purge your CDN cache after making changes. Once the cache refreshes,
your replacements appear normally. The plugin itself adds negligible overhead.

### Performance impact?

Minimal. Plain text replacements add just a few milliseconds. DOM parsing only kicks
in if you use CSS selector-based rules (Pro). With page caching enabled, the replaced
output is cached like any normal page, so returning visitors have zero extra processing.

### Does it support regex?

Yes — regex is available in the Pro version. Patterns use smart defaults: `.` matches
newlines (dotall mode) and patterns are UTF-8 aware, so common HTML patterns work
out of the box. Useful for replacing complex HTML structures, cleaning up shortcode
remnants, or pattern-based URL rewrites.

### Can I test a regular expression before I use it?

Yes, with Pro. The built-in **Regex Tester** lets you write a pattern and see exactly
what it matches on sample text, right inside the plugin — so you can get it right
before it ever touches your live site.

### Can I use this to translate or change WooCommerce / plugin text?

Yes. Any text that appears in your site’s HTML output can be replaced. This makes
it a lightweight alternative to translation plugins when you just need to change
a few strings — like renaming “Cart” to “Bag” or changing “Reviews” to “Testimonials”.

### Can I schedule a replacement to run only during certain dates or times?

Yes, with Pro. The Schedule feature lets you set a date range, time of day, and 
specific weekdays. Useful for holiday banners, event countdowns, sale announcements,
or any content that should appear only during a specific window.

### Can I show different content to logged-in users vs guests?

Yes, with Pro. The Audience section lets you target by login state, specific user
roles, or device type (desktop, mobile, tablet).

### What happens to my rules if I deactivate Pro?

Your rules are fully preserved. Pro-only fields (regex, CSS selector, schedule, 
audience, etc.) stop being applied but remain saved. Reactivate Pro later and everything
picks up where you left off — nothing is deleted.

### Does it work on multisite?

Yes. The plugin can be activated network-wide or on individual sites. Pro licenses
are per-site.

### Can I export my rules and import them on another site?

Yes, with Pro. Export as JSON (full fidelity) or CSV (spreadsheet-friendly). Import
on any other site running Easy Search Replace Pro. Great for agency workflows or
migrating rules across staging and production.

### Can I sync rules between sites automatically?

Yes, with Pro. Beyond JSON/CSV export, **Rule Sync** lets you pull rules directly
from one site into another using a secure sync key — ideal for agencies keeping 
staging and production, or a whole fleet of sites, in step.

### Can I preview a rule before it goes live?

Yes, with Pro. **Live Preview** runs any rule — even one you haven’t saved yet —
against any page on your site and shows the exact number of matches, so you can 
confirm it works before publishing.

### How do I know if a rule is actually being used?

Yes — turn on **Rule Analytics** (Pro) and the Analytics tab shows how many times
each rule has matched. It’s the easy way to find rules that never fire so you can
fix or remove them.

### Are there ready-made rules I can start from?

Yes, with Pro. The **Recipe Library** offers one-click templates for common tasks—
remove “Powered by WordPress”, rename WooCommerce buttons, force HTTPS, and more.
Each recipe is added as a disabled rule so you can review and tweak it before switching
it on.

### I don’t know CSS — can I still target a specific element?

Yes, with Pro. The **Visual Selector Picker** lets you click an element on your 
own site and the plugin fills in the correct CSS selector for you — no dev tools
or CSS knowledge needed.

### What happens when I reach 10 rules on the free version?

The free version supports up to 10 rules. Upgrade to Pro to remove the limit entirely.
If you already had more than 10 rules from an earlier version, they all keep working—
nothing is removed.

Excellent plugin! It makes search and replace tasks quick and easy, especially when
updating URLs or making bulk changes. Simple interface, works exactly as expected,
and has saved me a lot of time. Highly recommended.

### 󠀁[Could be an essential plugin!](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/could-be-an-essential-plugin/)󠁿

 [magestyx](https://profiles.wordpress.org/magestyx/) মে 10, 2024

We have clients all the time that want woocommerce or other plugin wording changed,
and this looks to be an excellent way to do just that without having to try and 
find hooks or filters specific to the function and output.But not only that – this
plugin lets you change absolutely anything on the page, which could make it essential
except*… I downloaded the plugin and looked through the code, and it looks straightforward
and harmless in itself. Mostly it’s a WP wrapper for simplehtmldom on sourceforge,
which grabs WP’s output buffer and does one last search & replace on it before serving.
Very nifty indeed. *My only concern is as this plugin is so new and straightforward
is if it’s been vetted to be secure enough for live sites. We installed on a dev
site and it worked flawlessly. But this is seriously powerful to be able to change
anything whatsoever in the final output code. Any non-admin access would be very
dangerous. Should that risk be mitigated, we’d use this all the time. We’ll keep
watch on this plugin for sure as it gets more usage and reviews.

## Changelog

#### 1.3.0

 * NEW: “Don’t match if page contains” safety switch is now available on every rule(
   free).
 * NEW selector engine built on the WordPress HTML API (WP 6.5+) — dramatically 
   lower memory use and faster pages when CSS selector targeting is active; automatic
   fallback on older WordPress.
 * NEW (Pro): Live Preview — test rules (even unsaved ones) against any page and
   see match counts before saving.
 * NEW (Pro): Rule Analytics tab, Recipe Library, Regex Tester, Rule Sync between
   sites, Visual Selector Picker, admin Debug Badge.
 * NEW (Pro): Cache-Aware Mode — scheduled/role/device rules now work correctly 
   with page caching, and known page caches are purged automatically when rules 
   change.
 * Improved: saving rules no longer resets the “Skip these HTML tags” setting.
 * Improved: rule exports now include every field (between-markers rules survive
   the round trip), and CSV files with multi-line content import correctly.
 * Improved: regex rules are validated when you save, with clear warnings for invalid
   or dangerously slow patterns; patterns like plain words are no longer silently
   skipped.
 * Improved: case-insensitive matching now works with accented and non-Latin text.
 * Improved: XML sitemaps and feeds are never touched by replacements.
 * Fixed: scheduled rules now respect the site timezone for start and end dates.
 * Free version now supports up to 10 rules; installs that already have more keep
   all of them.

#### 1.2.2

 * New: Privacy section in readme
 * Improved: Tracking data now includes plugin identifier for multi-plugin support

#### 1.2.1

 * Fixed Minor issues

#### 1.2.0

 * NEW: Pro tier — regex, CSS selector targeting, scheduled rules, user role / logged-
   in / device targeting, exclusion rules, import / export with bulk CSV import.
 * NEW: Enable/disable toggle on every rule without deleting it.
 * NEW: Redesigned admin with tabs — Rules, Import / Export, Settings — and a sticky“
   How it works” sidebar.
 * NEW: “Skip HTML tags” setting — protect contents inside `<script>`, `<style>`,`
   <code>`, or any custom tag from replacement.
 * NEW: “Don’t match if page contains” safety switch — add a marker to skip rules
   on specific pages.
 * NEW: “Match text between two markers” (Pro) — a no-regex way to replace content
   between two HTML snippets.
 * IMPROVED: Regex now matches across newlines by default (dotall mode), so patterns
   like `<div>.*text.*</div>` work on multi-line HTML.
 * IMPROVED: Save/error notices now appear as floating toasts instead of stacking
   above the form.
 * IMPROVED: Buffer filter now skips feeds, REST, and admin-AJAX requests for better
   performance.
 * SECURITY: Defense-in-depth capability checks added to all POST handlers.
 * SECURITY: Sanitize and unslash `$_SERVER['REQUEST_URI']` when resolving the current
   URL for rule matching.
 * SECURITY: Explicit `isset()` + `is_array()` checks on all `$_POST` access; stop
   mutating the `$_POST` superglobal.
 * SECURITY: Validate post-ID input as integers; validate URL lines via `esc_url_raw`.
 * SECURITY: Use `get_current_screen()` hook-suffix matching instead of `$_GET['
   page']` to enqueue admin assets.
 * Dev: Refactored into class-based architecture (rule engine, schema, licensing
   gate, Pro feature classes) with backward-compatible data migration from 1.x.
 * Dev: Introduced `ESRN_VERSION`, `ESRN_PLUGIN_DIR`, `ESRN_PLUGIN_URL`, `ESRN_PLUGIN_BASENAME`,
   and `ESRN_OPTION_KEY` constants.
 * COMPAT: Existing users who had CSS selector for free are automatically grandfathered—
   no action needed.
