WordPress bundle Real-Time Find and Replace

in Long documents like this one I sometimes have trouble finding a specific word or phrase that I know is in there somewhere the find feature can help by searching the document for you click the find command on the ribbon

then type the word or phrase you’re looking for

the results will show up in the left Pane and will also be highlighted in yellow

you can use the arrows here to jump to each instance of the word

if it’s worth it appears multiple times you can scroll through a list of the results

at times you may find that you’ve made a mistake throughout your document or you need to swap a certain word or phrase for another four that you can use the replace command instead

I actually need to change the warranty review to the abbreviation Sr

now when you’re ready click find next in the dialog box

then click replace

replace all can save you even more time by changing every instance in the document automatically when it comes to using replace although it’s important to remember that it could find matches you didn’t anticipate and might not want to actually change generally speaking you don’t want to use replace all because it doesn’t give you the option of skipping anything you don’t want to change so you should only use this option if you’re absolutely sure that it won’t replace anything you didn’t intend it to
