in work books with lots of data when I’m looking for something I sometimes have trouble finding a specific word or phrase that I know is in there somewhere to find feature can help by searching the workbook for you just click find and select on the ribbon then choose find
and type the word or phrase you’re looking for
when you’re done click find next in the dialog box
if the word or phrase is found the cell containing it will be selected at times you may find that you’ve made a mistake throughout your workbook or you need to swap a certain word or phrase for another word that you can use the replace feature instead I actually need to change the name of this department from accounting to finance
to continue go ahead and click replace and it will jump to the next instance automatically if you want to skip the current instance without replacing it click find next instead
alternatively to replace every instance without having to review each one click replace all
and the entire workbook will be updated
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
now that you know how to use find and replace you can put this time saving techniques to work in your Excel spreadsheets
Best DB Find/Replace Switched my multi-site installation from sub-directory to subdomain which completely ruined all my links and images. “You know cause theme developers are not smart enough to store a single domain record entry for all links/images to reference like the one built into wordpress core.” This was the only plugin I found that properly managed to deal with escaped url json string in the postmeta table.
Great plugin very easy to use

Powerful Effective Efficient When I was installing it I read this: Warning: This plugin has not been tested with your current version of WordPress. I have the latest version of WordPress 5.4.2. According to the developer it was Compatible up to: 5.2.7. Nevertheless I activated it because the description of its capabilities seduced me. It worked like a breeze. I tested all functions except one “Replace a Domain / URL”. That too because it was not documented in detail. So I couldnt take a risk. But it has such remarkable features that I coul play it safe. Do mock Run. Get a preview. Take Backup before change. I have two websites both of which had domain changes. I took ginger steps, chose smaller data tables first. Made the changes. Tested the website. added bigger data sets. Made the changes. Tested it out. Then changed the entire site data, with search and replace. Also first I outputted the changed SQL file. And uploaded it. Next time I changed directly. Following this procedure, first site took me two days. In the second site I finished the whole job in one hour. And this was the free version. Need I say more.
Great plugin, saved me hours of work! Great plugin, saved me hours of work!
