Search Regex

外掛說明

Search Regex adds a powerful set of search and replace functions to WordPress posts, pages, custom post types, and other data sources. These go beyond the standard searching capabilities, and allow you to search and replace almost any data stored on your site. In addition to simple searches you have the full power of PHP’s regular expressions at your disposal.

You can use this to do things like:
– Help migrate a site from one domain to another
– Update URLs in links and images
– Perform site-wide changes

Search filters can be created to match any column of any WordPress table. For example:
– Find all posts in a category
– Find all post meta data without a post
– Find all posts in a date range

Search Regex handles small and large sites.

Search Regex has been tested with PHP from 7.0 to 8.3.

What can I search?

You can search:
– Posts
– Pages
– Any custom post type
– Comments (including spam)
– Users
– Meta data
– WordPress options
– Supported plugins (such as Redirection)

Full regular expression support is provided, and you can capture data and use it in the replacement.

Actions

A variety of actions can be performed on matching results:
– Modify and replace the result
– Delete the result
– Export to CSV and SQL
– Perform custom PHP action

Modify and Replace Data

Results can be individually modified by clicking on the item to change, and using the popup modifier.

Bulk modifications can be performed against all matching results.

The types of modification depend on the data being changed:
– Numbers can be added or subtracted to existing numbers
– Hours, days, weeks, and months, can be added to dates
– Tags and categories can be added, removed, and substitued

Custom shortcodes are supported that allow dynamic data to be included:
– Add the current date and time, in any format, to content
– Insert data from other columns. For example, insert the category into the title
– Transform existing data. For example, convert case, change underscores to dashes.

Example uses

Some ideas for potential uses:
– Delete all comments that match a phrase
– Add a category to all matching posts
– Remove orphaned meta data

Incredibly powerful search tool for your dashboard, especially useful if, for example, you’ve moved to a new server (or a new site structure), or someone’s changed their name, or any other reason you might need to update a lot of things at once in the same way. Risky too – make sure you preview any replacements first!

Works perfectly. For those having issues, you need to proceed with regex with caution (always backup first), as the plugin notes.

Why on earth does the entire post get deleted when I’m only trying to replace a string? While attempting to delete specific keywords across multiple posts using the ‘Delete Matches’ button, the entire posts containing those keywords were deleted. There was no warning, and the posts didn’t even move to the trash. This tool is absolutely terrible.

An absolute must-have for people migrating huge data and having to correct loads of broken links. Does for free, with a quite powerful interface, what others promise to provide if you pay first.

For a plugin called SEARCH REGEX, maybe have REGEX enabled by default? For a title feature to be hidden in dropdown is a bit annoying. If someone is installing this, they clearly looked for REGEX eh? I’d suggest keeping REGEX enable/disable a separate setting that is always visible.
