    Can I use this plugin to replace product names and attributes?

    Absolutely. If you happened to change the title of one of your product names, you can easily replace it using the Search and replace plugin. You can also change other product attributes, such as the short and long descriptions, color, size etc, but bare in mind the changes will not be saved on your database, which is why this method is more suitable if you’re interested in a temporary change rather than a permanent one.

    I need to exclude a content replacement rule from my excerpts. Is that possible?

    Yes. When creating a new content replacement rule, you can mark one or more of the following parameters as excluded from the search & replace rule:

      Great plugin, helped me a lot
      ~200 pages of articles, with most of them needing links replaced. CM On Demand Search and Replace helped me turn this job (that I feared will take me days) into a simple, easy and fast one. Thank you!

      Amazing Plugin!!!! Very Easy to Use.
      This plugin does the job excellently well!I’ve been searching endlessly for days on how to change some texts on my site pages into html image codes to no avail.I saw a few solutions that mentioned changing those texts from the database level – no way am I tampering with the DB – I stayed clear (Except you know what you’re doing, don’t mess with your db)! I also found some forms of javascript tweak but they all didn’t do the job perfectly, breaking my pages atimes.This plugin came to the rescue. The ease of use is amazing: just copy and paste – one to the left the other to the right. That’s it.Thanks so much for making that core plugin function of search and replace free-of-charge. Although there is a little advert at the bottom of the pages I applied it but that can easily be edited out if you want to in the Edit page area.Thanks a bunch.

      Great plugin!!!
      The plugin and especially the customer support is great! I had the following problem: I auto created 25.000 posts to my website that each had a different title and different content. However, I made a mistake and each title contained a “#” sign in the title. So, I bought this plugin to get rid of the “#” sign in each single title of all the 25.000 posts on my website. I tried but had problems figuring it out. Then I contacted customer support that could help me straight away! Now, all my post titles are perfect! I can recommend this plugin a lot!
