Features
Case Sensitive Search
Enable case sensitivity to match exact letter casing. "Hello" will only match "Hello", not "hello" or "HELLO".
Whole Word Matching
Match complete words only. Searching for "the" won't match "them" or "other".
Regular Expressions
Use powerful regex patterns for complex searches. Match patterns like phone numbers, emails, or custom formats.
Capture Groups
With regex enabled, use capture groups in your pattern and reference them in the replacement with $1, $2, etc.
Regex Examples
\d{3}-\d{3}-\d{4}[PHONE](\w+)@(\w+)\.(\w+)$1 at $2 dot $3^\s+|\s+$(empty)<[^>]+>(empty)Frequently Asked Questions
What is Find and Replace?
Find and Replace is a text processing tool that allows you to search for specific text patterns in your content and replace them with new text. It supports both simple text matching and advanced regular expressions (regex) for complex pattern matching.
What are regular expressions (regex)?
Regular expressions are powerful patterns used to match text. They allow you to search for complex patterns like "all phone numbers" or "words starting with capital letters" instead of just exact text matches. Enable the "Use regex" option to use regex patterns in your search.
How do I use capture groups?
Capture groups let you reuse parts of your match in the replacement. Wrap part of your regex pattern in parentheses to create a group, then use $1, $2, etc. in your replacement text. For example, pattern "(\w+) (\w+)" with replacement "$2 $1" will swap two words.
