Search and Replace Content

Just an idea,

I have a site with about 100 pages in it and and customer wants all instances of a certain logo removig from the content.

As it is now I have to edit every single page and delete the logo , but what would be nice is to enter the html string and replace it through the whole site.

Or have I missed this option / module and it already exists ?

uhm... wouldn't the logo be in the template? So you could change the logo once and have this changed on all pages? Or I am I getting it wrong? How come the logo is in each page?

I think this is supposed to be a feature in 1.5, which should be releasing soon. Although I didn't see anything in testing the beta. Maybe a member of the dev team can confirm or deny.

It's not in the template as it is ony used on specific pages (about 30%)

Mhh... I understand your problem... are you familiar with mysql? You could make the changes in the DB directly....

or download a dump... alter this with your favourite editor using find&replace and upload it again...

That's the only thing I can think of at the moment...

Hope it helps
