Repository metrics are context, not quality scores. Active installations measure adoption and can strongly reflect a plugin’s age and historical popularity. Ratings, recent updates and “Tested up to” metadata also do not guarantee modern code, error-free operation, security, feature completeness or suitability for a particular site.

Overview

About this plugin

Replacely is an administration tool that lets WordPress site owners and developers safely find and replace exact text inside post, page, custom-post-type, and Elementor content across a curated list of URLs or paths.

Unlike search-and-replace tools that scan the whole database blindly, this plugin operates surgically: you provide the list of URLs you want to touch, the exact text to find, and the exact text to replace it with. Nothing else is modified.

Highlights

  • Exact, case-sensitive matching. No regex surprises.
  • Accept full URLs (e.g. https://example.com/sample-page/ ) and relative paths (e.g. /sample-page/ ).
  • Detect target post automatically via url_to_postid(), supporting any registered post type.
  • Elementor-aware: also replaces text inside Elementor page content ( _elementor_data ) and refreshes Elementor’s CSS cache afterward.
  • Dry Run mode shows what would change before any database write.
  • Results dashboard with summary tiles, detailed table, status colors, dashicons, and replacement counts split by source (classic content vs. Elementor).
  • One-click CSV export and Copy results to clipboard.
  • Persistent activity log of every live replacement (page, post type, replacement count, user, timestamp, View/Edit links). Keeps the 200 most recent updates and can be cleared anytime. Dry runs are never logged.
  • Hardened security: capability checks, nonces, sanitisation, escaping, direct-access protection.
  • Skips revisions, auto-drafts, and trashed posts. Duplicate URLs are processed only once.
  • Clean uninstall: deleting the plugin removes all of its data (activity-log option and per-user transients) from the database, multisite-aware. Your content changes are kept.
  • Translation-ready.

Built for reliability

  • Object-oriented architecture with namespaced classes.
  • Modular file structure: bootstrap, plugin container, admin page, replacer service, helper utilities.
  • Polished, responsive admin UI that complements the native WordPress design language.
