Editor Find and Replace
Find and replace text in Expert with keyboard commands or the editor toolbar. Search visual page text or the HTML source code.
This page does not cover the Find & Replace feature, which enables bulk replacement of a word or phrase across your site.
How to use
Find text
- Click Edit > Find and replace... or use Ctrl+F. This will open the find and replace modal.
- Enter the text you want to find in the Find field.
- Click Find or press Enter. Text will be highlighted blue (first or current instance) and gray (other instances).
- Use the up and down arrow buttons to the right of the Find field to cycle through all found matches.
Click and drag the modal wherever you like within the browser window to keep your work unobstructed.
Replace text
Use the text search tool to designate the text you wish to replace.
- In the modal, input text into the Replace field.
- When matching text is found, click Replace to replace the highlighted result, or click Replace all to replace all matches found.
If you use Replace / Replace all when the Replace with field is empty, the highlighted text will be deleted.
Find and replace text in source mode
Source mode uses your browser's find and replace. To view pages in source mode, click </> HTML from the toolbar or select View > Source code.
Settings
Find and Replace has optional settings to refine your search.
- Match case: Letter case determines the search results.
- Find whole words only: Search results are determined by the search term as a whole.
- Find in selection: Searches for queried text within a highlighted portion of the page.
When this setting is turned off Find and Replace will search the entire page, even if a section of text is highlighted.
