 * Hi, Is there a way to ‘bulk’ translate all the strings that I have searched for.
   I.e. I am looking to replace all references to ‘vendor’ with ‘photographer’. 
   When I search for ‘vendor’, there is 2,723 strings. How do I ‘find and replace
   all’ essentially. Thanks
 * The page I need help with: _[[log in](https://login.wordpress.org/?redirect_to=https%3A%2F%2Fwordpress.org%2Fsupport%2Ftopic%2Fbulk-edit-strings%2F%3Foutput_format%3Dmd&locale=en_US)
   to see the link]_

 * There is no “find and replace” feature in this plugin.
 * You could use any text editor with such a feature, and edit your PO file with
   it. Just remember to also do a save the PO file in the Loco Translate editor 
   in order to compile the MO file.

 * Thanks for your response Tim.
 * I have looked through your website and cant find instructions on how to do this.
   Can you please advise on how to handle PO files and what the syntax should be
   in order for me to achieve this.
 * Thank you

 * Manual editing of PO files is beyond the remit of my support, which covers my
   plugin’s editor only.
 * The PO file format, and its syntax are well documented: [https://localise.biz/wordpress/plugin/faqs/loco-accounts](https://localise.biz/wordpress/plugin/faqs/loco-accounts)
