• I’ve decided to change my review from 5 starts to 2 stars. Here is why. Let’s consider you have a text like this:

    Johnny has got blue and green toy cars.

    We want to replace “blue and green” with “blue, green and red”. But if we try to do it with “Better Find and Replace”, we’ll get the following result:

    Johnny has got Array toy cars.

    Doesn’t look cool, isn’t it? That’s why I give only two starts to this plugin.

    P.S. Also it’s impossible to filter the database (e.g. wp_posts table) to separate posts and pages.

    Hi @cyberseo,
    Thanks for your valuable comment and feedback. If you read properly the plugin detail page there is a complete guideline which could lead you to make a perfect search and replace in your website.
    You can see what will be the replacement in database when you will search with dry run option. But if you don’t follow the instructions then you will not get perfect result.

    Also if you demand anything which the plugin doesn’t provide, you could send the request for that features. If something in your mind and apply to the plugin and think this doesn’t functional which is a bit discourage for a free work.
    Hope you understand and consider to revert your feedback.

    Thanks

    I did a dry test and it showed me “Array” instead of my phrase, which is definitely a bug in your code. A serious bug, I’d say. Course I haven’t applied the database changes, but someone may forget to check the “dry run” option…

    I gave 2 start because of the bug, not because of the missing feature.

    Let me clear few things, there is no way to forget an option which has been emphasis on few area’s of the plugin. Even, there is a caution of the beginning of this section.

    The way you thought, the plugin doesn’t worked in that way. It has a combination of array of find and replacement. Comma, separate words as array. So, when did you put comma in replacement field, it becomes an array but find remaining as string. Which is a mis-combination. That was actually designed for advance users as we have a vision to take it to the new level.

    Anyway, we have simplified it and if you try now on latest version with your find and replacement pattern you tried, hopefully you will get your desired result.

    Thanks

    Hello @cyberseo,
    I really thank you for reverting your feedback score. It would be a great deal for us if you could have changed the title. Because people will be misled with the title. If you have time, changing the title would be great. 

    Thanks again

    Hi @cyberseo,
    It just came in my eyes that again you have changed your feedback score. First you made 5 stars, then you changed to 2 starts, then again you changed to 4 starts and then again you changed it to 2 starts!! I am a little bit confused with your feedback.
    Although the issue you have mentioned, it doesn’t exist anymore. 

    If any one reading this review: The issue doesn’t exist anymore. The reviewer just tried to use his own logic. But we value user comments and adjust already.  If you want, you can try with this reviewer example they mentioned. Not sure why the reviewer has highlighted this kind of unfair title.
